Democrats and Guns
In Pennsylvania, it will be a sticky issue for them:
Guns are an especially potent issue in Pennsylvania, which is home to 300,000 members of the National Rifle Association — the highest per capita NRA membership in the country, according to Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action. A 2002 Quinnipiac University poll found that 42 percent of Pennsylvania households have guns, including 54 percent of union households, a key Democratic constituency.
Gun issues also stir up passions in Pennsylvania for another very different reason. Philadelphia has experienced an epidemic of gun killings: 331 people were shot to death last year, 321 with handguns.
We’ll see how they dance around this one. We all know that Barack Bon Jovi Obama has never seen a gun control he didn’t like. He and Hillary have both supported all the various pipe dreams of gun control.

Barack Orville Redenbacher Obama and Hillary are too out of touch with the American people to speak their minds on the issue. So they lie with their silence.
