Uh, correction:  thats 98. He's running for re-election to Congress this
year.

Let this bastard run me out of my own home?  I think not.  But I
appreciate the thought behind the suggestion.
I looked at Schumers current situation in the spring of 94.  I was
hoping to start an online campaign similar to the De-Foley-ate
Washington thing, get gun owners from around the country to send money
to Schumers opponent so he could beat him.
Turns out he represents an ultra-liberal Manhattan district.  The
Republicans had trouble even getting a "sacrificial lamb" to run a token
campaign against him.  Schumer won by a 4 to 1 margin.
Statewide, it's gonna be a different story.  Chuckies gonna have a
real fight on his hands.
Still, while I expect all gun owners will vote against him, it may come
down to a vote of confidence on our current governor, who's decidedly
more conservative than NY is used to having.
If he DOES win, I may have to take you up on your kind offer of
political assylum . . .
Regards
John
