In a very small way, there is hope, at least for gun rights, in the next four years. I was listening to NRA radio, and it seems that not all is lost. The Democrats won't pull off the filibuster blocker, and it looks like House won't be such a huge loss either. And it also sounds like there are a lot of pro-gun Democrats, along with no real big precedence in passing a renewal of an assault-weapons ban or the like. Hopefully some pro-gun politician in committee will be busily burying these suckers as they come. Who can tell, but I'm optimistic about that at the very least.

And don't forget Obama's nice little comment about religion and guns, one of the biggest gaffes of the election. This country is clearly still firmly rooted in our 2nd amendment rights, and I hope that plenty of people start writing their Senators and Representatives and let them know that they won't be sticking around the capitol hill country club for long if they start tossing around anti-gun legislation.
