Harry Reid, Gun Control, and 2014

Bitter over on Shall Not Be Questioned has this post suggesting Harry Reid's promise to bring up another vote on gun control before the 2014 general election may be an attempt to hold his majority in the U.S. Senate. He must be nuts you might be saying.  Basically, Reid is calculating that it will give his members running for re-election in red states one last chance to cast a pro-gun vote and giving gun owners on less reason to vote against them. Bitter points out other benefits Reid might see in such a strategy like causing the NRA to hold up endorsements until the votes are taken. She makes some valid points and I think she is spot on. Read the post and see if you agree.
