hite House Press Secretary Jay 
Carney said Biden continues to play a leading role in the gun 
control effort. He reiterated that the administration would continue to 
press for legislation and suggested lawmakers who opposed the last version 
would feel public pressure."In the end, senators who voted against the overwhelming 
will of their constituents may reconsider if they hear from those same 
constituents and hear how important these common-sense measures are to them," 
he said.The Obama-supporting Organizing for Action is working hard on the 
sidelines to apply that pressure. That group's home page, as of Friday 
afternoon, featured a sign-up for a petition supporting legislation.The 
lead post on the page claimed that poll numbers for lawmakers who 
opposed the legislation last month have dropped."Want proof that what OFA 
volunteers are doing is working? The senators who voted against expanding 
background checks are getting their poll numbers back since that vote-and 
they're not subtle," OFA claimed.But even Sen. Pat Toomey, who was a 
critical supporter of the compromise amendment that ultimately failed last 
month, claims Congress does not have the stomach for gun legislation any 
time soon.The Pennsylvania Republican had teamed up with moderate West Virginia 
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin to offer the background check amendment, which 
would have expanded checks to gun shows and Internet sales while exempting 
family and other personal transacti
"Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects 
all faiths.We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. 
But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence. 
None."-- President Obama on Sept. 12, 2012 discussing the attack on the 
U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, then said by the administration to have 
been spurred by an Internet video deemed offensive to Islam.Elections are 
clarifying things, though not necessarily for voters.Americans are still 
puzzling over the significance and consequences of 2012's electoral embrace 
of an unpopular status quo. Is dysfunction the new normal? Is sclerotic 
malaise the best we can muster for a federal government?But for the 
candidates and campaign teams in the midst of elections, they are marvelously 
simplifying affairs. If you don't win, nothing else matters. Other considerations 
must take a back seat, even if you are the incumbent president 
of the most important nation on the planet.If one believes he or 
she is in politics to do good, as almost all politicians do, 
ignoble attainment of a victory is easily excused by the thought of 
good deeds achieved once installed or retained in office.Today's birthday 
boy, Nicolo Machiavelli, wrote that if a politician is successful, "the 
means will always be considered honest." Or, as his modern intellectual 
heir, Al Davis of the Oakland Raiders, put it: "Just win, baby."But 
it is not always so.
