Default Re: Infighting threatens imminent avalanche of gun control in PA

OKAY, personalities and organizational biases aside, I just want to point out one thing.

Grassroots organizations and communications are important. If you want to see how and why, take a look at the results of the 2006 U. S. House of Representatives election results. Especially for districts that tend to be more rural. Here's a few for consideration:

PA Dist. 10
Carney 108,832 Winner by a 6% margin (12,369)
Sherwood 96,463
(This is my district Bradford, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Lycoming, Montour and part of Susquehanna)

PA Dist.4
Altmire 130,480 Winner by 4% (9598)
Hart 120,882

PA Dist 8
Murphy 125,667 Winner by (1521)
Fitzpatrick 124,146
surpisingly Bucks, Mongomery and Philadelphia

The successful candidates won by only a few thousand votes in their districts, how much more important are those votes in races for seats in the Commonwealth's General Assembly, where winning or losing could be decided on a few hundred votes (or maybe the membership of a couple three gun clubs)?

So keep your head in the game, the idea is to defeat those who oppose our rights and we do that best by communicating with our fellows. You don't have to like each other, you don't have to have continuous agreement, Just remember, your opponents are the Cruzes, Frankels, & Evanses.
