This is classic "bait-and-switch" politics from the Left's playbook. HE didn't say it, SHE said it. So he can claim it when it suits him, and he can disavow it when it doesn't.

He can get the rural voters to vote for him because he believes in THEIR Second Amendment rights, and still decry the lack of gun control in urban areas.
None of these guys would EVER say this on TV at a debate, nor would they opine this discussion in a large city market like Chicago or NY. They are simply playing to the base- in whatever zip code they happen to occupy at the time they utter these statements. Better to look at the Senator's voting record. It's pretty clear where his heart is...
