Like Avram, I'm more or less a "pro-gun-rights liberal," or at the very least, a liberal who thinks guns are an issue best handled on a more local level. The citizens of Harlem are strongly pro-gun-control, and the citizens of Montana are strongly against it; both have some pretty good arguments in favor of their positions.

That said, I doubt that the road back for Democrats consists of trying to strike wheedling bargains. People follow leaders. We have to get better at being for stuff, and framing it in stronger, clearer terms.
