Obama Was Right

 Remember back in April when Obama referred to voters that were frustrated when he said, "And it's not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns..."

Obama There must be a whole lot of frustrated people around the country right now.  They are clinging to their guns as fast as they can get them.  Firearm sales are up through the roof all over the country despite economic hard times.

 Just check out the following news accounts:
Idaho        Florida             Oklahoma     North Carolina
Indiana     Texas               Ohio             Connecticut
Maine       New Mexico      Mississippi    Michigan

While most of these reports do come from the heartland, please take note of the so-called "blue" states on the list, Michigan, Connecticut, New Mexico and Ohio.  The marketplace has been discussed as having predictive value in the past.  What future events does this market activity foretell?
