They win, as at worst, they distract everyone from the REAL issues (jobs, debt, corruption, etc.); at best, they make headway on disarming the commoners so that once the REAL issues come home to roost, destroying the economy and putting them in power FOREVER, there will be NOTHING the commoners (that's you and me, by the way) will be able to do about it.....

I'm normally of the same pessimistic bent as you. There is a glimmer of hope. It looks like Obamacare is going to self-destruct in 2014 when it is fully implemented and Dems will finally get the blame for it. The Senate vote to repeal the tax on medical devices essentially defunds it. I have my fingers crossed.

But will it be enough to cause the Democratic leadership to stop their insanity? I suspect not! They are so hell bent on promoting their anti-gun agenda, that they won’t care how much money or how many jobs it will cost the people of Colorado.

When politicians are so visibly flying into the face of such opposition, you have to reason that there is a huge ulterior motive. "It's for the children" only gets them so far. Then again CO seems to have gone solid, cold blue so maybe they are not worried about re-election because they pass gun control laws. I would have expected Washington State to be worse the CO but even Washington failed to get their gun control agenda passed and they didn't have businesses threatening to leave because of it.
