So it seems McCain just might screw us again...

Via just about everyone, comes the news that the Republican nominee in waiting John McCain is considering the selection of Michael Bloomberg as his running mate in the general election. Yes, THAT Mike Bloomberg...the one who, as Bruce so artfully put it, is "... the very embodiment of the Nanny State...The same Michael Bloomberg who has made it his life's mission to bury the firearms industry under mountains of costly litigation..." And, of course, the same Michael Bloomberg who advocates New York-style gun laws in place on the federal level...registration, licensing, you name it. Combine that with McCain's potential appointment of former Ohio senator Mike DeWine as his attorney general -- you know, the guy who's ultimately in charge of the puppy-stompers at the ATF -- and a whole hell of a lot of people should be asking themselves, is it worth it? I love my country more than I hate John McCain too, but at what point is there no meaningful difference between McCain and the smiley-faced Chicago socialist? If you haven't read Bruce's take on that, you really should...
