Will Sotomayor’s Nunchuck Ruling ‘Jeopardize’ Senators’ Seats?

Fox News contributor Ken Blackwell, the former Ohio secretary of state and failed Republican candidate for governor, has remained fixed on Supreme Court nominee Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s view on guns. In a column dubbed, “Obama Declares War on America’s Gun Owners With Supreme Court Pick,” Blackwell singles out Montana’s U.S. senators:

There are a number of pro-Second Amendment Democratic senators from deeply red states, including Mark Begich from Alaska, Jon Tester and Max Baucus from Montana, Ben Nelson from Nebraska, Byron Dorgan and Kent Conrad from North Dakota, and Tim Johnson from South Dakota.

These senators will jeopardize their seats if they vote to support an anti-gun radical for the Supreme Court. Second Amendment supporters will now be up in arms over this radical anti-Second Amendment nominee, and you should never underestimate the political power of American gun owners.


Blackwell’s chief concern, according to Fox News, well …

The chief concern is her position in the 2009 Maloney v. Cuomo case, in which the court examined a claim by a New York attorney that a New York law that prohibited possession of nunchucks violated his Second Amendment rights.
