Obama brought 15,000 to 
the streets in New Orleans for a gun-control rally, Sen. Mary Landrieu 
might have flinched in her opposition to the presidents agenda. But he 
didnt. Had 1,000 Organizing for Action volunteers fanned out across Arkansas 
to drum up support for the package, Sen. Mark Pryor might have 
hesitated in bucking the president for fear of a primary challenge. But 
the doorsteps were empty.This is just the first test of the presidents 
new model and he and his team promise that as money flows 
in and lower-level organizers get up to speed, the presidents army will 
be ready to march next time.But there are two challenges here.First, how 
do you get people fired up about unsatisfying legislation?Obama initially 
promised a whole package of legislation aimed at preventing future mass 
killings like the December massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary. But comprehensive 
legislation quickly gave way to a resurrection of the old liberal effort 
to ban guns.When Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid declared that not viable, 
the president fell back to supporting universal background checks. He had 
by that point lost the urgency of the Sandy Hook killings since 
the measure was unrelated to what happened at the school, as well 
as other recent mass shootings.And when that measure looked headed to sure 
defeat because of worries about a federal firearms registry, Obama fell

of the House.Two years earlier, the DCCC canceled all ad support for 
Florida Rep. Tim Mahoney who was accused of having an affair with 
a former aide and then paying her to keep quiet. It was 
later reported he also had an affair with a second woman around 
the same time. Ironically, Mahoneys political career had taken off after 
he replaced Republican Rep. Mark Foley who himself had a very public 
fall from grace after admitting to exchanging sexually explicit messages 
with an underage boy.Sanfords well-known scandal involved his extramarital 
affair.He first made scandalous headlines when he told staffers he was going 
to hike the Appalachian Trail but instead was discovered having the affair. 
Sanford admitted to seeing his mistress on a 2008 taxpayer-funded trade 
mission to Argentina.He ended up paying $74,000 to settle the ethics charges 
against him and was working toward reviving his political career, having 
just won the GOP primary in the special election race.But court documents 
released this week show that Sanfords ex-wife, Jenny, filed a complaint 
with police on Feb. 4, accusing the former governor of trespassing. The 
couples 2010 divorce agreement says neither one can be at the others 
house without permission and that seemed to be the last straw for 
his NRCC backers. In 1976, the DCCC reached its boiling point with 
then-chairman Rep. Wayne Hays after The Washington Post quoted a secretary 
for the Hous
