Colorado passes Gun Control Laws

Sorry man, I don't see the logic of spinning this as the fault of the Dems. 90%+ of the Dems voted in favor of the background check expansion; 90%+ of the Repubs sided with the filibuster. So ... clearly it's the spineless Dems' fault? Explain, please.

The bills weren't going to pass the House anyway, so I'm not really placing specific "fault" here on the Senate. But once it became obvious that the GOP senators were going to block everything out of spite (and it should have been obvious by 2011), they should have gone nuclear and eliminated the silent filibuster. The spinelessness of the Dems in both houses goes back to the Bush years, and they still act as though they are the minority.

And GC is right about the Republican vote. You can't really blame them, it's just their nature.
