Reply #52: Guns are HUGE in NH

[KaraokeKarlton]

They are more important than abortion there easily. If rural voters could vote for a Democrat that was for both abortion and gun rights there is no way they'd vote republican. NH is mighty angry with Bush as it is. Their state property taxes have gone up over $100 million because of the income tax cuts. NH doesn't have state income tax or sales tax, and they already had high property taxes. Now, thanks to Bush, not only are their property taxes skyrocketing, but they don't have any money to meet the new federal education mandates, which means they are going to lose federal funding. That's going to lead to BIG problems there. There is NO WAY Bush can win NH in 2004...none. And overtime, NH people work A LOT of overtime...this is a huge sore spot, too. NH likes Dean a lot, too.
