They have a lot of tenacity. And despite the divisions, some of them bitter, the entire Liberal group seems very dedicated. Conservatives and perhaps Libertarians start eating one another over their disagreements. When it comes to the business at hand, they "seem" a lot more steadfast than we are.
It is a good thing that they are trying to champion very flawed arguments. While it is tempting to snicker at the opposition when it appears to be in disarray, don't be surprised if suddenly put their differences aside and re-attack. Most of the ones that I've talked to are zealots. They might intensely dislike each other but they hate gun rights advocates and all that we stand for. My impression is that the hatred goes far deeper than gun issues.
They are, for the most part, very determined, and we should never let down our guard against their propoganda, and lies. Fortunately, their record for gun control legislation, with exceptions in already gun restrictive areas has been very poor at best.
Their message is losing it's audience, as more people realise that an armed society, is a safer society. People are starting to see the fallacy of gun control laws, especially in areas with the most restrictive laws, that see an increase in criminals with guns.
The fact that they are squabbling within, is a good sign, but they have the backing of billionaires Bloomberg and Soros, so they do have money to spend on anti gun candidates. As long as we continue to fight for our rights, and vote for those who want to preserve them, we can defeat them, because continued defeat will take away their willingness to fight. JMHO
