Michael Bloomberg's Plan to Help Republicans Take Back the Senate by creating a Democratic Tea Party (legal, Obama)

[All American NYC]

Former Republican Michael Bloomberg must have decided the best way to help Republicans take back the Senate is by creating a Democratic Tea Party....gun control groups such as Bloomberg's "Mayors Against Illlegal Guns" are in the process of launching ads against red state Democrats MarkPryor (Arkansas), Heidi Heitkamp (North Dakota), and Mark Begich* (Alaska)...President Obama's Super PAC, Organizing for Action, is also threatening to go after Democrats who don't toe the line on guns. As POLITICO properly notes, the race to watch is Pryor's, because the Bloomberg attacks could stick.

You will never get gun control with so many legal owners of guns.

Meh, not something anyone should be all that concerned with when it comes to future elections.

More people don't own guns than do. It's just that those that do own like 40 each just in case they need to invade their local 7/11 for supplies in the middle of the night.

Yeah imagine the horror if Democrats primaried other Democrats and replaced them with candidates that support expanding background checks. Only about 90% of voters support expanding background checks. Clearly a losing issue.

That includes 89% of Republicans. So why not primary Republicans in swing states instead?
