(3,145 posts)Out here in the Mountain West gun control is a vote loser of the highest order. The "Confiscate all guns!" rhetoric plays very well in Denver and Boulder but is also one of the key reasons we Dems can't make inroads much outside Denver.
- It's the reason we had several legislators recalled and one forced to resign to avoid being recalled.
- It's a big part of why Republicans control the State Senate
- It's a reason we lost a good senator, Mark Udall, to Tea Party asswipe Cory Gardner.
I'd rather have a pro-gun rights Dem in office than Cory Gardner or Mike Coffman or Ken Buck.
