"What they want to do is limit the amount of handguns you can buy, assault rifles, things like that. The constitution doesn't say you have the right to keep and bear ammunition. A car's no good without gasoline so one way you can get to banning or controlling guns is by attacking the ammo."

Should be more worried about a guy like Romney leading in the polls.

The current Republicans are all we have. If one of them can't beat Obama then I guess we're stuck with the "O".

No one we have now will beat obammy.

What we have to worry about now is what he does when he doesn't have to worry about re-election.

Another Nostradamus... Considering Obama has a -17 approval rating it's not like there is a mass influx of people cheering for him to be re-elected.

Disapproval is more of an indicator of voter apathy as well, Bush had an approval rating of 39-40% when he was reelected.
