NRA announces that it will not endorse Reid

[NCTexan]

The National Rifle Association announced Friday that it won’t be endorsing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.).

It seems that the NRA got the message from 2nd amendment supporters that backing anti-gun judges and agenda does not fly with most folks... even when securing some funding for a gun range.

Good-bye Harry Reid. May you go the way of all socialists!

Absolutely, the fact that Reid procured funding for a range, doesn't even BEGIN to offset all the damage he has done to this nation. If he thought that this issue should sway many people he is even more detached from the public than I would have believed. Don

I just hope that doesn't open the door for Schumer and that would definitely not be a good thing to take over as the lead man in the senate

Chuckie reeks. Don

It will take a minor miracle for the GOP to take control of the Senate this cycle, close maybe, but politics is not horseshoes and close doesn’t count.
Chuckie S. may well become Majority Leader. Until the good people of NY throw him out we must suffer with him, thanks NY.

FYI, it will take a miracle to oust Schummer, considering he's been in office since age of 23 I believe. There attacking Gillibrand because of Flip flopping on Guns, so it will be interesting to see what happens. Biggest campaign is governor.

Reid does get to keep the NRA political contribution that was made, and Reid still gets to use the photos and videos already in the works.

Good. I am glad the NRA leadership could see beyond the 2A issues and view Reid's voting record in total.

Could some one identify 1 congress critter that is connected to reality or the voters in their district / state?

I can't name him by name, but there is a Representative from Arizona that introduces legislation into every session of Congress he's been in, to pass a law that Congress must identify what section of the Constitution empowers them to enact any particular piece of proposed new legislation.

He usually gets a few people to go along with him. Why doesn't EVERY Republican co-sponsor this bill with him? Because they are rotten, no-good politicians, no different than the rotten, no-good Democrats.

NRA not backing Dirty Harry...good for them but they are supporting Chet Edwards here in Texas, and when questioned they come up with a bunch of gun legislation Chet supported. He was also Pelosi's choice to run with one of the Nations biggest anti gun proponets ever....Bar...None other than Mr Barrack Husein Obama......It is not beyond beyond belief for the socialist/marxist elements to say, "yeah Chet brother, we know you represpent a bunch of ill mannered rednecks down in Texas so you go ahead and pretend to be a Second Amendment supporter, just make sure when it comes to voting for tens of billions of dollars in tax increases and bailouts we have your support...<<<<<<<<<<wink......nod>>>>>>>>

The NRA has been shuckin and jivin on their endorcements this time around. The only reason they didn't support Reid, when they actually were going to, is simply that so many members threatened them if they did support him they'd leave..
Their policy is just as much politics as usual as any of the smoosers that have been around too long.
Time to wake them up and invite them for tea as well.
