NRA infiltrated by ‘progressives’? Looks that way to me.
I’m glad that Kasich won. He has the experience to deal with budget deficits. He just walked into a $8B buzzsaw.

Strickland got the endorsement of the Ohioans for Concealed Carry PAC and the Buckeye Firearms Association as well as the NRA. Ohio has a history of Republicans who are unfriendly to gun rights. Usually the Democrats are even less friendly, but Strickland is the exception to that rule.

Strickland is not a conservative. He is a liberal who happens to support gun rights, and he has a proven voting record to back it up. Kasich has claimed to see the light. I guess we will see if his was a conversion of expedience.

I wouldn't personally vote for Strickland, but he deserves the endorsements over Kasich by gun rights groups. He has stuck by gun owners even though doing so can't have been popular within his own party. He has proven himself on gun rights, and these are gun rights organizations.

Have gun rights organizations been infiltrated by progressives? As long as they support run rights, why shouldn't they be welcome in those organizations. Invite them in. Maybe we can slowly talk some sense into them.
