see, "hillaryclinton.com" is not as powerful as saying "you're lying, this is why"
too cerebral and too negative at the same time. sorry. what was most exciting about her was that she wasn't trump. i said it way early here and i'm still saying it today.
lastly-- launching on a tirade against guns is preaching to the choir. every time democrats go after guns they fucking lose.
instead of saying "ban on assault weapons" which is a) bullshit, because assault weapons is a fake label for varmint rifles, and b) sounds like an excuse to ban all weapons.
democrats should be saying
"let's keep guns off the hands of terrorists and the mentally ill"
"we have to keep guns off the hands of terrorists and the mentally ill"
with that, you pass universal background checks and close the "gun show loophole". score a solid victory, worry about fakely named guns later.
why do democrats have to be such ineffectual eggheads. yes, you have the liberal elites already, you have to go after everyone else, and speak in SIMPLE AND COMPELLING TERMS. and preferrably with the truth so that shit doesn't have to blow back in your face.

I agree with pretty much everything you're putting down here, but I think your underestimating how quickly ANY gun talk that isn't overtly pro-gun gets muddied in the minds of people from, oh, say... Wisconsin and Michigan. There are as many single issue gun voters as single issue abortion voters, and like the pro-lifers, any opinion that isn't very clearly in agreement is considered direct opposition.
But yes about the eggheads.
