Feinstein may be found in a corner chewing on her lower lip (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/19/reid-cuts-assault-weapons-ban-from-senate-gun-control-bill-amid-waning-support/)

Feinstein said Reid told her there would be two additional votes. One would be on her assault weapons ban, which also includes a ban on ammunition magazines that carry more than 10 rounds. The second would just be on prohibiting the high-capacity magazine clips.

Many Democrats think the ban on large-capacity magazines has a better chance of getting 60 votes than the assault weapons ban.

I wish she'd chew her whole face off!

I sincerely hope the round capacity thing fails as well.

Me too, I'm not a fan of limiting capacity at all.
