9. Sharp has a point about White's electability...
and the diminished chances other Texas Democrats have for getting elected. Is Mr. White engaged in a "war on guns?" I don't know for sure, but this is the realm of election rhetoric, and as such has a lot of room for slop. What is most important is recognizing that gun-control politics is damned unhealthy for ANY Democrat running from ANY precinct; in Texas, these politics are downright foolish.

Pro-2A caucuses in the Democratic Party need to be aggressive in diminishing the gun-control issue. It is harming not only other Democrats, but the chances of the Party effecting needed legislation in a wider area.
