ribit,

90 percent of Americans want expanded background checks on guns. Why isn’t this a political slam dunk?
Posted by Scott Clement on April 3, 2013 at 11:10 am
Nine in 10 Americans support expanding background checks on gun purchases in a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll, an extraordinary level of agreement on a political issue and a finding that’s been duplicated in nearly every major public poll.

Surveys show broad support spans gun owners and non-gun owners alike, Democrats and Republicans, and even among members of the National Rifle Association, whose leadership is leading efforts to spike the measure from pending legislation.

After the senate failed to pass background check even with the support of 90% of the American people, why the hell does Thom think the Congress will represent We, the People, now

...it never had 90% support.
