Paul Ryan made his first talk-show appearance since the 2012 election, so obviously it's time to ask him about his ambitions for the 2016 election and watch him dodge the question: Calling such talk "premature," Ryan added, “I’ve got an important job to do. I represent Wisconsin, (and) I’m chairman of the Budget Committee at a time of a fiscal crisis.” More substantively, he took on his party's future, saying the GOP "obviously" has to "expand our appeal. We have to show our ideas are better at fighting poverty. How our ideas are better at solving health care." And then on gun control, he seemed open, saying, “the question of whether or not a criminal is getting a gun is a question we need to look at.” More from the Sunday dial, as per Politico:
