Oh my Mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say, That's why I'm such a wonderful shot. I'd be am out in the cactus and I practice all day, And now tell me what have I got. I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger Than a pen point, I'm number one. But my score with a feller is lower than a cellar- Oh you can't get a man with a gun.
Did Hillary Clinton flip-flop on gun control?
The Politico's Mike Allen lays out the case.
HRC isn’t changing her positions, but she is changing the appearance of her positions – her tone – to match the prevailing music. It’s much like Rudy Giuliani suddenly declaring his support for “strict constructionist” judges. Heck, the entire Democratic Party did this after Al Gore lost West Virginia in 2000.
Also, there is nothing contradictory in arguing that most gun owners are good people and also believe that gun control is the right course of action.
A smart observer notes how any form of even marginal or modest restriction on gun ownership -- even support for an assault weapons ban -- makes one, in today's political vernacular, "anti-gun."

I live in the South and have lots of friends that hunt. There is a lot of difference between owning a shotgun in SC so you can deer hunt on the weekends and owning a handgun in D.C. with its high crime rate and congestion.
Hillary understands that difference. THe media hatred of Hillary in the media, however, makes it inevitable that they will try to turn Obama's stumble into her problem.
