The Second Amendment doesn't live inside a vacuum. That doesn't mean that the NRA has to broaden their scope but it does mean that the NRA should also be keeping an eye on who is actively defending the closely associated rights, that we are granted by our Creator, and enumerated by our Founding Fathers in the Bill of Rights.

They haven’t sold their soul, they have just thrown common sense to the wind. The endorse Rats on their 2A stance as if that alone is enough to ignore the threats to freedom that all their other policies constitute. I will not be renewing my membership and I WILL tell them why.

Either that or someone isn't doing any research beyond the latest questionaire.

The current grades belie past anti-gun voting records, as well as ignore fundamental party loyalties which will transcend any appearance of being pro-RKBA in a close vote.

Someone is either being lazy or they aren't working for us.

If the NRA throws a Democrat incumbent under the bus to help Republicans, then why should other Democrats stick their necks out for gun owners? For that matter, why should any incumbent listen to the NRA if they sell out and put party first? The NRA has the mojo it does because incumbents know that the organization will stick with them if they support gun rights. It would be terribly short sighted of the NRA to sell out friendly Democrats on the chance that their Republican challengers might be as good on the 2nd Amendment.
