On John Gambling's radio show this morning, Mayor Michael Bloomberg took some time to continue his crusade against illegal guns, and made the case for what voters should do to get organized.

"What you've got to do is take a look at your Congressman, your Senator, and say 'Where are you? I'm not going to worry about everybody else. I'm going to work for your opponent unless you do what's right to protect my kids and the cops on the corner who are putting their lives on the line to protect me," Mr. Bloomberg responded when Mr. Gambling asked how voters are supposed to make a difference in such a complicated legislative body.

"If surviving isn't the number one issue, I don't know what else. Let's get serious here!" he added.

Mr. Bloomberg then made the case that Washington legislators should face scrutiny no matter how bad their opponents are on gun control issues. "I'll deal with your opponent when I get that man or woman when he gets into office," he advocated voters tell their representatives.

"Because that's exactly what the NRA does. You say 'Oh my opponent's going to be worse for the NRA than me.' They say 'I don't care, we're going after you.'"
