So maybe my theory won't pan out.<br /><br />Politics is a game to these folks and I think he came to the conclusion that he would lose more votes by not signing it than he would lose from his liberal base by signing it.<br /><br />I haven't heard of total numbers, but I've worked IGO booths and a lot of people have signed up despite my being behind the counter.<br /><br />It will be an interesting election cycle this year.strandediniowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08069932615393852640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697841611561648399.post-45853388840888467032010-04-26T08:45:40.125-05:002010-04-26T08:45:40.125-05:00Wow!!! . . . there is someone else in Iowa that ge...Wow!!! . . . there is someone else in Iowa that gets it besides me!!<br /><br />All the NRA has done is give cover to the anti-gun Democrats . . . with one exception: rumor has it that Iowa Gun Owners now has an active membership of over 5,000 Iowans, and they aren't going to let the anti-gun Democrats off the hook . . . every one that vote FOR the NRA bill also voted AGAINST IGO's "Real Right to Carry" bill, which recognized the second amendment in Iowa and eliminated having to beg permission from the gubermint to lawfully exercise 2A freedoms in Iowa. While rank and file "Joe Sixpack" Iowan's may not care about this, a lot of gun owners will. I hope IGO can HAMMER the anti-gun Democrats (and "Republicans" like Clel Baudler who also voted against the second amendment in Iowa).<br /><br />I also believe that if Chester decides to pocket veto this thing and Branstad gets the "Republican" nomination, it will never be a gubernatorial issue . . . there is a persistent rumor that Branstad also vetoed CCW reform in Iowa, though there seems to be no internet record of such. I would bet money that Chester knows the day and the hour of the veto of that bill . . . garenteedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
