    When he said they cling

    He meant they cling to them as an issue, not as a lifestyle decision. As was obvious to anyone who heard him and wasn't trying to take the most negative connotation.

    Guns don't matter in this race. No one is going to take them away. Religion doesn't matter, unless you want your religion to become the state religion or to teach our kids pseudo science in public schools. But that's all anyone is talking about now, isn't it?

    The most remarkable thing about all of this is how Obama pretty much refuses to attack Hillary - and there is more than enough there to attack. I think if she loses the primary or the general election, we are watching the end of HRC's political career. Thank God. Obama, on the other hand, will still have a party to back him if he doesn't get it done this time around.
