"Absolutely they should."

Okay, so now the NRA should work to defeat the conservative republican in Alabama and instead support what will most likely be someone strong on Gun issues (after all it is Alabama) but will vote in lock step with the Dem party while trying to hide his true record. Great, glad we have that settled.

"BTW, the Examiner is a credible source. That link confirmed the first link."

No, one link parroted the other link. If it was a credible article, it would have concrete proof. The unnamed sources stuff is just crap. You know it. But then again, anything to bash the NRA, right?

BTW, answer one of my questions. What politician fears a poor grade from the GOA? What politician touts their support from the GOA over their support from the NRA? I see lots of signs and advertisements by candidates that tout their NRA support or "lifelong NRA membership", but not GOA. I remember in the 2008 campaign, Mitt Romney wanted to shore up his gun credentials. How did he do this? By becoming a lifetime NRA member. As far as I know, he didn't sign up to be a lifetime GOA member. It just goes to show, the NRA has the influence to get things done on the 2nd amendment. The GOA has no influence and simply exists to bash the NRA.

When the NRA deserves the criticism:

Aaron Zelman's (JPFO) open letter to Ted Nugent about the NRA

As for your concern about who the NRA would support if it did not support Sessions, the answer is that the NRA touts itself as a "single issue" advocacy group. If neither candidate is reliable, they should withhold their endorsement altogether.

And the way you put it, that is exactly what is happening with many of the Dem candidates they've endorsed in the past. They've voted pro-gun just enough to placate the NRA but voted with their fellow leftists the rest of the time.
