Yet Reid — whose low approval ratings in Nevada make him a tempting GOP target in next year’s midterms — put many of his members in a sticky situation when he OK’d a floor vote on a controversial GOP amendment that could significantly alter the nation’s gun control laws.
This cracks me up. These Democrats are scared to vote on the subject
because they are scared of an electoral backlash. I thought they were in
the business of doing their constituents bidding? Apparently not. Scary.
