(CNN) Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand on Tuesday did something most politicians aren't willing to do: Unequivocally admit when they think they've made a mistake. Gillibrand came into CNN's town hall with a long list of progressive policies that she regularly touts on the campaign trail. "When I was a member of Congress from upstate New York, I was really focused on the priorities of my district. "I don't think so," Gillibrand said when asked whether the comment cost her that friendship. Gillibrand was asked whether she believed there was room in the Democratic Party for a religious left.
