Gun violence, supporters of gabby giffords, but at the end of the day, is there someone who will convince them its not a bad idea? i mean, mayor bloomberg is a very culturally sensitive figure. i mean, you saw wayne lapierre outlining what hes done on obesity initiatives and anti-smoking initiatives. is there someone else culturally who would have a bigger footprint and be a more efficacious spokesperson? >> anything remotely an honest description of what the debate is, 85, 90% of the people agr...
