LaPierre Goes Head-to-Head on ABC's 'This
               Week' - Is McCain Going to Bolt?

               On the Sunday talk show circuit this morning, NRA
               Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre (on ABC’s "This
               Week”) strongly reiterated his disappointment with Sen.
               John McCain, R-Ariz., for his "assaults on the First
               Amendment" (with his campaign finance reform bill) and the
               Second Amendment (with his bill to impose stricter
               background checks at gun shows).

               On the same program, McCain recalled LaPierre had
               campaigned against him and for George W. Bush in last
               year’s South Carolina primaries, and described the NRA and
               just "another special-interest group.”

               That comment may have made the senator’s break with the
               NRA complete.

               Some Washington pundits are already quietly expressing the
               belief that McCain may, in fact, be planning to bolt the
               Republican Party.

               McCain has been a staunch NRA ally for decades, and he is
               well aware the group is considered one of the strongest
               grassroots groups in the Republican Party - and perhaps
               more so in his home state of Arizona.

               McCain is up for Senate re-election in 2004, the same year
               as the next presidential election. Analysts say the buzz
               may try to get on a Democrat ticket, and his break with
               the NRA is just one sign of his plans. Under the
               McCain-Feingold campaign finance bill, asserted LaPierre,
               huge conglomerates such as Viacom, AOL/Time Warner, GE/NBC
               and others could say "anything they want” and "bring on
               Rosie O’Donnell and Barbra Streisand” and preach their
               anti-gun message, but the NRA would have to shut up 60
               days before the election.

               That is not the sort of thing that is in tune with the
               spirit of freedom "here in the United States of America,”
               he added, "but is something more familiar in countries
               far, far away.” Whereupon, "This Week” host Sam Donaldson
               thanked LaPierre for "appearing on this huge [Disney/ABC]
               conglomerate.”

Maybe it'll be McCain vs. Reverend Al in the '04 dem primary.  Wouldn't that be something?

Check this link and look at the left side of the page, right under the poll.
BTW I was looking  for pictures of HRC to bugger up in Photoshop.
