"Democrats could, and we might be better off as a republic if they take the House in 2018."

No, it doesn't make any sense, Michael. But the GOP is a nearly wholly-owned subsidiary of the National Rifle Association.

This heartbreaking post by Marlyn DiTommaso nearly says it all. "This is the sad truth.
But GOP voters your children are being gunned down too. When is life worth more than money? Our country does need thoughts and prayers for its own misguided direction."
