The National Rifle Association has endorsed Congressman John Salazar’s re-election bid, giving the Manassa Democrat an “A” rating.
No word yet from the NRA on the number of other Dems the organization has endorsed this cycle and what its thoughts are on Tipton.

Salazar faces state Rep. Scott Tipton, R-Cortez
It is self-defeating to endorse any democrat, even where they have a strong RKBA stance. It is not the single candidate who will affect RKBA issues. It is the majority of the party that candidate adds to in the event he/she wins office. To be blunt, it is the dem majority under Pelosi/Reid who are most detrimental to RKBA, not the single candidate.
This is why I’ll vote for a lousy repubbie over a decent dem every time. Never, ever, ever vote for a dim, cuz this just puts that party in or on the road to a majority.
"As a gun owner and a lifelong member of the NRA, I am committed to ensuring that neither the federal nor state government infringe on the right of law-abiding citizens to bear arms. I support legislation that increases concealed carry permits and will oppose any efforts to restrict law-abiding citizens from owning a firearm."
What more do we need to know? Why Salazar?
Chris Cox has corrupted the NRA. They are big government ruling class elites. They have no credibility.
I agree with you. Any member of the US House of Reps who has ever voted for Nancy Pelocy should NEVER be endorsed by the NRA. This should disqualify them for any endorsement.
The NRA needs to wake up and smell the tyrany.

“Chris Cox has corrupted the NRA. They are big government ruling class elites. They have no credibility.”
Agreed. Where did this clown come from? He is destroying NRA creditability, and demoralizing the troops.
He needs to be removed ASAP JMHO
frickin NRA
the whole “NRA May endorse Reid” thing made me hesitate renewing my membership.
this endorsement makes me extremely glad i did
dont these buffoons realize that keeping any D in office enables Gun grabbers like Pelosi etc to keep their jobs and do all they can to weaken the 2nd ammendment!!!
not to mention leftist judges getting through the Senate for crying out loud look at Sotomayor and Kagan
We have a good shot at picking this seat up and the NRA is helping the Dems???!!!
Yes they do!....lol...but the NRA “paid establishment” need them there to KEEP THEIR JOBS!.....Its a BIG BUSINESS!
The National Rifle Association is not our friend.
He may have th eNRA endorsement—but I still will VOTE for Scott.I WILL not vote for anybody who was part of the
Obamination called the Democratic controlled Congress.
The NRA is a disgrace!
