She does have one adviser, Bill Clinton, who will emphasize that one major factor in the lost by Gore and Kerry was their perceived gun-grabber reputation.

The Dem platform will be changed from "We will protect Americans' Second Amendment right to own firearms, and we will keep guns out of the hands of criminals and terrorists by fighting gun crime, reauthorizing the assault weapons ban, and closing the gun show loophole, as President Bush proposed and failed to do"
