That's probably a good idea ... until you can admit that endorsing "Assault Weapons Ban" democRats is a bad idea, you really have nothing to say.
Manchin would have been elected with or without the NRA’s endorsement. Raese never had a prayer in W.V.-not against Byrd, not against Manchin, not against Rockefeller, and not against Moore. The NRA’s endorsement, however, ties to Manchin a pro-gun constituency that he must consider. backing an inevitable loser gets you nothing. backing an inevitable winner gets you something at least. it made perfect sense.
