59. The DLC is way more anti-gun than the party at large...
they are anything but "centrist" on the gun issue. It was primarily the DLC that made the "assault weapon" bait-and-switch de facto the party's top legislative priority.

The DLC leans authoritarian/communitarian, if anything, and banning as many guns as possible is a communitarian mantra (which is why right-wing communitarian Bill Bennett is also an avid supporter of gun bans).
