Dodging A Bullet In Governor’s Race

September 13, 2005 |

Gun owners who vote Republican in next year’s primary will have to choose between Jim Petro and Ken Blackwell, unless one of the two steps down. Some might say that Ken Blackwell is the ideal Governor for the law-abiding gun owner, while others would point to the fact that only Jim Petro has been put in a position to prove it — by enacting Ohio’s reciprocity agreements aggressively, and defending the law aggressively in both the courts and formal opinions.

A three way race is certainly not in the Republican’s best interest. It appears that Betty Montgomery is the weakest of the three on both the abortion issue and gun control. It would be a shame for the 2nd ammendment voters to end up split and have to take Betty to the big dance in the fall. If this is the case then Republican gun owners will not dodge the bullet.
