Keep Your Powder Dry
A lot of court-watchers believe the Heller decision on the Second Amendment will be handed down today. Quite a few believe it'll be written by Justica Scalia, which suggests to some the individual rights-based view has won the day.
I guess we'll see when we see, but if the Court has no significant revision of its interpretation, the gun nuts will go nuts, and if they have a new take, the gun controllers will be out of control.
Whatever happens, it'll be a relief to read some national news that isn't about the Presidential race. (Though I suppose they'll chime in, too.)

This potentially a bigger short-term political gift to McCain that the MA Supreme Judicial Court's recognition of gay marriage to Bush in 2004.
Of course the opposite could happen-a strike down of gun control laws could energize Obama and the dems- while generally not as organized on this issue as the NRA etc., more gun control supporters (or people likely to support it) are probably already energized and politically active as part of the in 2008 race
