So, it was quite clear in last nights debate that there was already a political revolution

regarding guns. 92% want stricter laws.

So, Bernie's shouting at eachothers point about it (while shouting about it), was put to rest. Hillary did great in that debate sequence!

The revolution has already happened Mr. Sanders and what did you do? You voted against holding gun manufacturers responsible and haven't used the "revolution" to do a damned thing about it.

I thought this was one of the strongest points made in the debate!

When Sanders implied that gun control didn't make Baltimore safe.

That showed a profound lack of understanding of the problem and what Americans are asking for.

I don't think Sanders gets it. Or maybe he doesn't want to lose "second amendment" support.

Whatever the reason, his remark to O'Malley clarified Sanders' real nearsightedness about the mood of this country when it comes to gun violence and gun control.

say he regrets his vote. That it was a mistake.

And he got beat up on guns. Period. He did not come off looking good.
