The Senate has just failed to get the 60 vote margin required to advance the bipartisan background check bill. The vote was 54 to 46 -- which means that a majority voted for it, but the 60 vote strangle-hold defeated what 90% of the American people want.
And this was the most likely gun control measure to pass. Even the weight of the Newtown families lobbying them didn't do it.
The other, stronger gun control measures are certainly doomed.
What can you say . . . ?
