Neera Tanden was very effective this morning attempting to reach those middle ground, low information voters. She stayed on message calmly and professionally stressing a few talking points such as universal background checks and common sense gun control.

Yep, the left is always effective with low information voters using poll and focus tested words to distort the truth and provide "solutions" that won't work.

I agree that Pratt was a poor spokesperson for the issue, but that is why Wallace had him on. Someone from the NRA would have destroyed Tanden so actually Fox was taking it easy on Tanden.

I was waiting for Pratt to question whether universal background checks were effective and practical, not to mention an infringement on our liberties. Is Tanden saying that all private sales must now go through a background check? If my uncle wants to sell me his gun, does he have to go through a background check on me? This is nonsense, not common sense.

I don't think she actually said that but that's what she meant. I agree, it's nonsense not 'common sense'.
