how so?
I set out years ago why Heller helped the dems-an opinion several high level GOP operatives I know agreed with. Many union gun owners were on the fence-vote for Obama as their union wanted or vote for their gun rights. Well what Heller did was create complacency among "gun rights first" voters and they figured they would support their union since Obama couldn't ban guns. Now the NRA and more proactive groups like GOA and Buckeye Firearms and the CCKBA are all saying that Hillary wants to use the judiciary to accomplish what the executive branch cannot do and ban lots of guns. If a bunch of democrat judges rule against gun rights (and the Democrats on the court are monolithic in their statist disgust for gun rights) that is only going to invigorate the pro gun side
