Neither party are our friends when it comes to the RKBA. The current Democratic platform is openly hostile to it, as we've all seen. The Republican party isn't agressively anti-gun, but they're not going out of their way to help us either.
The difference is, we can still exert some political pressure on the latter, and they'll feel at least some obligation to play ball when the voters are watching.
If you think anybody in Washington gives a rat's patootey about civil rights (beyond statements that make for good soundbites), let me disabuse you of that notion. It's all about money, influence, and tenure.
