I considered that a stupid question. I'm a machinist for a small fabrication shop.
I couldn't tell you every politician who received an "A" rating or if Arlen Specter received one. Link the information if he did.
For your amusement. Check out the anti-NRA comments.

I found this headline:
VOTE FREEDOM FIRST -- VOTE FOR CONGRESSMAN JIM GERLACH (PA-06) ON NOVEMBER 2
[ Also, be sure to vote for other endorsed candidates George Bush for President, Arlen Specter for U... Also, be sure to vote for other endorsed candidates George Bush for President, Arlen Specter for U...]

The link must be dead because it only took me back to the ILA page. Regardless of the rating -- which I can't find -- Specter was the endorsed candidate.
My turn now. Are you going to argue that Specter was a good choice? Was he the most gun friendly candidate in the race?
I'll give you a clue. He told me -- in front of an audience of over 100 people (about 2 years ago, in the months preceding the primary) -- that he would vote to ban 'assualt weapons' again (meaning he did it before) even though he 'regretted' his vote and the ban was ineffective and violated our rights.
Does that sound like the kind of guy that a pro gun organization should endorse?
