31. He and Gabby, both gun owners, were always for sensible gun laws

They never said they were for seizure, just sensible restrictions, just like car ownership.

Gabby got re-elected in AZ when she ran, so I don't think a Republican can try to blast them on this issue. What is a Republican going to do, tell Gabby that she is exaggerating the danger of guns in the hands of crazy people? I don't think that one will fly, even in Arizona.

I'm definitely liking this candidacy. I'm not unbiased or anything, you understand........
