Well, that's my problem, bobo, I do research the candidates, and find myself voting R every time. Like many, I play the "lesser of the evils" game, and yep, R, invariably. On top of that, I have attempted correspondence with many of my state and U.S. reps, I got ZERO replies form Cantwell(D), Murray(D), and previously Baird(D), nothing, not even a form letter acknowledging me (obamacare, gun legislation, and a couple of other events I considered important). Yet, Orcutt(R), replied to an e-mail with a phone call, to my home 730 pm one evening, what even I would consider his own time, and we talked for maybe 40 minutes. Maybe you're looking at Betsy, across the river from me, as your pro 2A "can happen" D, but it's such an extreme minority it's laughable.
Should probably read the last sentence of what I posted... There are actually pro-gun Democrats. But hey, just something that one should keep a note of... If there's a minority, then one should keep in mind that means you can't lump them all together. Either way, I'm serious when I mention one should do research. Pro-gun Democrats do exist. Just like anti-gun Republicans. Even so, at this point all that can be done is agree to disagree.
We have different experiences though. I'm from NC, and after Sandy Hook our gun laws became slightly more relaxed (they were kind of relaxed to begin with), during that time period it was a Democrat state (not just the governor).
