I can't help wondering how many threads we need to express hand wringing over Democratic candidates for '08. Do we need to do this for the next two years?
It seems to me that the only thing noteworthy would be a Democrat who is demonstrably pro-RKBA and somehow still had a prayer of getting genuine support from the Democratic Party. There would need to be a total displacement of the senior leftists before the Democratic Party had any credibility re support of RKBA in its true, intended form.
What would be more productive in my opinion is discussion of the quest for a pro-RKBA candidate with a real chance of winning. To me, that would be a Republican, and frankly I don't yet see a good GOP candidate who has clearly indicated any intention of running. Personally, I would be most interested in Gov. Mark Sanford of South Carolina, but discussing that would be another thread. Actually it has already been discussed repeatedly.
I think what we will see is a sort of standing back, while McCain's candle burns in the early going.
