I'll cut these guys some slack until we see how they vote. Don't forget, the last time the dems pushed gun control for example, a sufficient number of dems voted against it to kill the bill.

Here in North Alabama, we have a 'blue dog' (Bud Cramer). Bud will not vote for gun control. He learned his lesson in -94. Bud voted for all the Clinton gun control stuff in 92/93. We had a very weak republican run against him in -94. Bud only won by 100 or so votes. You could still find a few "Gun Ban Bud' billboards 10 years later. Bud has voted the straight NRA line since and wins by very large margins.

Even Bill Clinton said gun control cost the dems the house. I just don't see the dems forcing these guys to repeat this same mistake.

House democrat bigwig, Charlie Rangel, said in an interview that gun control will be brought up.
