Gun-shy /hedged
I'm really trying to understand those words but once I fail to do so I come to ask here 
What is "gun-shy" here? and "hedged"?
"Having advised against her Senate run, Carville was feeling a little gun-shy, so the counsel he offered was hedged. But Hillary seemed to have the bit between her teeth"
