Will our side develop a means to cope? They haven't managed an effective reaction in four years...
It’s different than with ObamaCare. Republicans did not control the House at that time and were very limited in what they could do. Gun control will not pass the House.
The recent rout by Obama on the fiscal cliff gave us the advantage that Boehner is under far less pressure to give anything to Obama now. Second, I think Republicans are correctly just keeping their yap shut rather than drawing fire by announcing their opposition to any gun control.
