Kinda depends. Obama brought lots of change. I lost all hope. Colorado may have had a (very narrow) success, but then, there's California: http://bearingarms.com/anti-gun-lawmake ... this-week/........and news media in the state is deliberately squelching all stories about this.......

forgive me for the politcal ignorance but i'm assuming "recall" means they are being fired for not listening to the majority of the people???? if that's the case I hope alot more of these "people" get the boot too!

I don't have much hope for CA.
It will require an implosion to fix that mess.

Bankruptcy may be the next best hope for them.

Well, yes and no.

The recalls got started because legislators ignored their constituents. But the recalls turned in to a proxy fight between Bloomie & MAIG vs. Pro-2A groups and the NRA. Lots of money got thrown into this fight from outside CO. So, "they are being fired for not listening to the majority of the people" isn't exactly correct. They got fired because the pro-2A folks fought a better fight. Wouldn't surprise me one bit to hear that a substantial number of Coloradoans voted for recall solely because they were angry that Bloomie was trying to steal their election.

I was thrilled with these results! I may be back home, but y'al know CO Springs will always be close to my heart.
