If John McCain is willing to treat Obama in a fair, civil, and respectful manner during this election and conduct a champagne against the man's ideas and politics, instead of attacking his character, (what a refreshing change), that's good enough for me. Obama has given every indication that he's the latest brand of Liberal Democrat. They call themselves "Progressives." I seriously doubt that he's a Marxist, let alone a "trotskyite. At worst, I'm not but half afraid of half of his ideas ever becoming law, and I don't think the worst of those that do will stick.

If elected, Obama isn't likely to deliver any better on his promises than any than other politician, Republican or Democrat. Besides, there are two other branches of government, and even if the Democrats were to win with a sweep of the congress too, well, they're all politicians too. And any how, I'd bet better than even money that the Supreme Court is about to this very month (June, 2008) put more teeth back in the Second Amendment than it's had in over 80 years.

As for the NRA, I've lost my faith in them decades ago. I think their members would get more value for their money if the NRA spent it more on the promotion of firearms safety and instruction than throwing it away on politicians.
