Now is the time to derail this trend in the GOP. If we do not make it clear, to any candidate wanting our votes, that the GOP stands firm on RKBA, and demands a firm committment, we will have ourselves to blame for what comes next.
If, in fact, the GOP really has no firm committment to RKBA, a lot of us have been betrayed.
The leading candidates are dodging the issue right and left. It is getting tiresome. "Better than Hilary" isn't enough. My cat would be better than Hilary!
I totally agree . I've carefully studied the candidates with a real potential to win , and have only seen one that is even making an effort to win pro-gun voters. That candidate is Romney . He was the only Republican to attend the Shot Show along with NRA officials , exhibiting a true desire to make it known that he's not appalled at the sight of guns .
Romney does not have the track record that I would like in a candidate , but I understand that he was tasked with Governing a deep blue anti-gun state .
We have to let it be known that no gun control is acceptable and Romney appears to be the only one on the top tier who is even willing to court the pro-gun vote .
Education is key when it comes to the gun issue and we must make sure that Romney is fully educated on the issue so we can fully support him . Truth be told , he is the only one on the top tier who I think would/could actually advance pro-gun causes .
Watching Grover Norquist (NRA board member) vouch/ introduce Romney at CPAC , gives a bit more credence to Romney's intentions .
