In 1994 we had 20 states that were "shall issue" on concealed carry permits, 17 "may issue", 12 "No Issue", and 1 unrestricted State. Today we have 37 "Shall Issue", 8 "May Issue", 0 "No Issue", and 5 Unrestricted States.
How about the "Contract with America" going way back to 1994? How about a balanced budget way back when? How about defeating Cantor for something more recent? How about District of Columbia v. Heller? Impeachment of Clinton? The rise of new media?
All great moments for sure; do you see any impact today, or any remnant of the country as it was in ‘94? With the exception of the gun rights, I see none; we’ve lost ground on everything else (abortion, taxes/government spending, affirmative action, family issues - including “gay marriage” and adoption, immigration, socialized medicine). If anything, I see the Republicans more aligned with Democrats on these issues against the American people than at any other point in our history.
If you think there is movement in our direction on any of these matters, then maybe I’m just missing it.
