If Charles say so, I believe it. I just felt pretty good going in...and yes a big thanks to the NRA/TSRA for allCharles L.

Given the antics of the OTC and OTCT crowd I'd say most people considered OC DOA before the session started. I'm shocked we got this far. Hopefully we can bring it home.

We are all either very optimistic or have no clue what we are thinking.KEEP VOTING!
Really didn't think we would be coming down to the last week. Last month...maybe.
But you are right, it is politics
OTC and OTCT are viewed as off base and out of touch. To much negative publicity. IMP
With the lineup we had in the House and Senate, this should have been a record session, but open-carry was a massive drain on political capital. That combined with other issues has resulted in a good, but not great session.
