...about gun control, whether it is floating the idea of a new "assault weapon ban," or some version of universal background checks -- with no real followup to it beyond talking about it.

I believe that Hillary is smart enough to have learned from what happened to Bill when he helped usher through the first so-called assault weapons ban -- huge Democratic losses (even though it is an article of faith that the subsequent losses were because of any other reason, any other reason at all). Bill knows it was a mistake, he even admitted to it -- I think she'll learn from his mistakes.
