This is an awesome story from Metropolis regarding the PA Black Caucus:

Twelve of the 17 walked out on a House hearing over the an open records bills because of mounting frustration at the lack of regard paid to gun-control bills.

The interesting issue is that, with the House controlled by the slimmest of margins - one - by Democrats, the loss of the black caucus for an undetermined amount of time would mean Republican control for now.

Will that force Democrats from the rural parts of the state to finally meet urban Democrats in the middle somewhere on gun control?
