Dean and the Dems

There's an interesting piece in The Hill on the implications of Howard Dean as Chairman of the Democratic National Committee on gun control. Here's a hint...say "lights out, Sara Brady":

The expected election of former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean as chairman of the Democratic National Committee this month will strike a crippling blow to the gun-control movement, lobbyists and political observers say...

Robert Spitzer, political science professor at State University of New York-Cortland said, “The gun issue has historically been a cyclical issue, and we’re in a cycle right now where there is less interest in gun control for a variety of reasons. The Democrats feel they were burned in 2000 on the gun issue. And enough Democrats believe it to be so that the Democratic Party doesn’t have the same zeal for the issue that it did earlier.”
