Vice President Joe Biden said senators who voted against the Obama administration-backed gun control legislation in April have contacted him implying they would change their votes if the measure is brought up again.
“I’m optimistic, because I’ve gotten those phone calls from those members of Congress, many of whom voted no, saying, ‘Can you find a way? Can you find a way? Can you find a way for us to revisit this?’” Biden said Tuesday at the White House. “So that’s exactly what we’re going to be doing—counting on the leadership, members of Congress here, and counting on the continued leadership of the workhorses in this administration.”
Biden insisted, “The country has changed,” and anyone who opposed stricter gun laws would “pay a political price.” He said polling bears this out for the first time. However, recent polling has shown mixed results on the issue of guns. …

I wish we could get as many votes on finally enforcing the death penalty, as we do trying to prevent citizens taking advantage of the guarantees of the Second Amendment.

Also a typical Alinsky tactic. Even when you loose, keep bringing it back up. Make the other side continually burn resources.

You really have to admire their relentlessness.
When the GOP loses a vote, they turn tail and move left.
When these guys lose a vote, they just keep re-voting until they win.

Joe Biden has his head stuck so far up his *ss that it’s impossible to take him seriously in this, or any other, issue.
Which is funny, if you think about it, because it’s difficult to get your foot into your mouth with a head that’s rectally impacted.

Typical Nazi/Commie/Dem tactic: keep voting on something until it passes. Then it's law. The same as how they keep counting votes until their guy wins, then they stop counting votes and declare their guy the winner.

Biden’s way of saying we’ve dug up a lot of dirt on them.

Yeah, Joe. I’d like to revisit your face. Metaphorically speaking.

I don’t admire Communists. But I see your point. Our side needs to be relentless.

Oh, please, let’s revisit that issue. It was the first time Obama lost. There are several Senate seats where just such an issue will be really interesting. Bring it up again!
