Remember all those phony election stories floated by the media that the gun control issue was irrelevant, that anti-gun rights politicians had seen the light, that gun owners had nothing to worry about? We said they were lies and distortions. Now the Brady Campaign and the big media are proving we were right all along.

"Never in our nation's history have we had an incoming President and Vice President more supportive of strong gun laws. The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence strongly endorsed the Obama-Biden ticket, and for good reason."--Brady Campaign
Last year, when then-Senator Barack Obama told his adoring faithful, "we are the ones we've been waiting for," anti-gun groups must have thought he was talking to them.
Political Report: Election 2008 and the Long Road Ahead
The 2008 elections are not yet completely over and they may not be for a while. But it’s not too early to thank each and every NRA member for your dedication and hard work.
I’d also like to let you know where we now stand. Unfortunately, of course, Barack Obama won the presidential race, spending millions to hide his anti-gun record. But there were many more races at play in November.
Further down the ballot, the NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) endorsed 23 candidates for the U.S. Senate, of whom at least 14 were victorious—with the outcome of three races still undetermined at press time. NRA-PVF endorsed 248 candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives and at least 216 of these candidates won their races.
Change . . . For The Worse
For eight long years, Bill Clinton, Al Gore and Janet Reno mocked and attacked gun owners’ rights. Now, despite our hard-fought battles, we are poised to see history repeat itself under a gun-hating Obama-Biden administration. Change ... for the Worse.
Georgia U.S. Senate General Election Runoff December 2, 2008!Only Your Vote Can De-Rail Obama's Gun Control Express!Because no candidate received more than 50% of the vote there is a runoff for the U.S. Senate seat in Georgia. The outcome of the Georgia Senate run-off may very well determine whether or not President-elect Barack Obama will have a filibuster-proof U.S. Senate! If Obama attains 60 votes in the Senate, he will have the ability to put anti-gun Justices on the Supreme Court, pass a U.N. gun ban treaty, and push his gun control agenda through Congress! The only thing that can prevent this nightmare scenario from becoming reality is YOU!
