Guns & Republican Rot

We're not rule makers. We're not even game players.

Yet.

And so we will withhold operational criticism of those in the Republican Party who believe that today's SCOTUS gun decision is one of the strongest cards that they have to play against Obama in November.

The Republicans might be right. They might be wrong. Time will tell.

But no matter what happens some 100 days from now, does it strike anyone else as pathetic that the best that the highest levels of the Republican Party can do in 2008, with everything going on in the world today, is pick a fight over handguns?

Talk about not inspirational.

Talk about same old sh*t different day.

Talk about lousy brand management.

Who are these people and what have they done with our Party of Lincoln, TR, Eisenhower & Reagan?

And before anyone snarls, "Out there winning elections you arrogant little sh*t!", we might remind people of what happened in 2006.

And what's shaping up to happen again downballot (at least) in 2008.

We're just saying.
