So I am a progressive who also does support the 2nd Amendment. My kids belong to an organization that provides excellent training and competition opportunities in shooting sports. We had a recent event and believe me I keep a low profile among all the NRA extremist positions (I think if you have nothing to hide a little background checking and license is not a bad thing, so not a big NRA booster type). I just keep my opinions to myself, but I get to hear what the other side is thinking/talking about. Follow me over the jump, so it looks like this might be a longer diary...sorry I am working and in school with kids to raise...
What the Republican parents of my shooting kids friends are saying is that Romney is toast. Toast. No hope. This is a REALLY Republican crowd. I left the last meeting with a smile on my face. Toast. That and the polls are very reassuring. We know Pres. Obama can win a debate!
