Good news Joe! I have the utmost respect for Eugene, and a former NRA Pres. suggests that the Second Amendment will be considered in judicial appointments (IF McCain wins)
While we are on the topic of judicial appointments it has been reported that Obama and Clinton voted against John Roberts Senate confirmation, while McCain voted in favor. I knew there were a few votes against Roberts (22), but didn't know who. Roberts was very, very, highly qualified and respected by all in the profession who knew him. That makes Obama and Clinton look more like ideologues than leaders. I expect Roberts to be part of the majority affirming an individual rights approach to the Second Amendment. His appointment may have been one of the keys to this upcoming victory for civil rights. Although I am not a McCain fan, just another reason not to vote for either of the Democrats.
