He will, of course, spin it that it is an unscientific poll (and it is, to be sure), but he's afraid. Did you see the look in his eyes on the news last night? He can't use firearms as an excuse for his failures anymore, and he knows it.

Fenty looked almost resigned to his fate in some of the clips I saw yesterday. The DC AG, however, was combative--how dare those justices affirm the rights of the people?

Remember, at 5:4 it's as fragile as it ever was. Had it been 9:0, that would be a different story.

Now that they've quibbled and gibbered over the placement of a comma and the applicability of a state-run militia, perhaps the next lawsuit can head straight to the crux: the meaning of the word "not" (as in, "shall not be infringed."). That would be something.
