Why is kerry pushing the gun issue?
Certainly not because it wins elections. Kerry is pushing the gun issue because Kerry is desperate. He is trying to keep the gun issue front and center because AWB is for his core. Kerry is trying to maximize voter turnout for the democrat base, not good for kerry to be doing this 50+ days out.
NOBoDY takes him seriously as a second amendment advocate. (perhaps hand gun control inc and the UN)
