Don't worry about the AWB. The Democrats know that if they push the issue too hard, it could hurt them by energizing more 2nd Amendment supporters into voting. The Republicans know if they push it, the opposite is true. House Majority Leader Tom Delay has said that the AWB is going to be DOA in the House. He will never let it out of committee and even if it managed to sneak out, there are no where near enough votes to pass it.

Unfortunately, Feinstien is putting a rider on the gun industry tort reform bill that would do away with the sunset and make the AWB permanent. Hopefully, the rider will get stripped off before going to Bush.
