Heaven knows it's the only good news to come out of the bloodbath! Dave Kopel's election analysis on this AM's NRO says pro-gun Dems are on the upswing, which is ultimately a good thing:

Arms-Bearing Can Bear the Defeat
The Second Amendment emerges from the election relatively unscathed.

By Dave Kopel

The Second Amendment has emerged from the biggest Democratic victory since 1974 with relatively little damage. One reason is that in races all over the country, Democrats returned to their Jefferson-Jackson roots by running candidates who trust the people to bear arms.

I do not disagree that the Democratic gains in Congress will, on the whole, be harmful for the economy, and extremely dangerous for the war against Islamofascism.

Nevertheless, the class of pro-gun Democrats who will be joining the House and the Senate includes some who will eventually become party leaders, and who will help move the Democratic party back towards its traditional position of respect for the civil liberties of the American people. A very constructive development, in the long run.

That assumes the new baby Dems can grow sets of balls before the Leadership grinds them into kibble.

Ah well, I wonder how long it'll take for the war to start back in earnest? I figure in Colorado the anti-gunners will get going as soon as the new legislature is seated. I was really liking not being on the front lines all the time...sigh...
