First Sarah endorsed him and now the NRA endorsed him. Who is next, Fred Thompson. You got to give it to McCain. He has friends in the right places.

Time to face facts. McCain will be reelected for another 6 years. I can live with that. Better him than some Democratic smuck.

Except, of course, for being one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the Country whose clout puts fear into the hearts of liberal politicians.

You are right and that is why my hubby and I will continue to be members. As members you have a say and you can say it with cash. You stay to make it better.

You won't be able to survive for long when Traitor McCain stabs you in the back so many times you bleed to death, probably in the arms of Øbama.

Rabs, you know that McCain disgusts me as much as he does you, and probably more. And I hate that the NRA backed McCain and that JD isn't completely trouncing him in the polls. Having said all of that and meaning every word, I do understand why the NRA supported McNasty.

John McCain is the most powerful Republican in the Senate and probably the most powerful Republican in DC. If McCain wants to get something done, it will be done, even if he has to reach across the aisle to do it. I may hate that about him -- his good ole boy networking, and selling out the country to suit his personal agenda -- none the less, I must acknowledge that McCain does command the kind of power that makes things happen, even if its the wrong things that happen.

My cousin and her husband live in AZ, and we talked about this election. It isn't as though either of them "love McCain" --- but they aren't sold on JD either. JD was their Congressman for a number of years and he didn't exactly thrill them. They both loved his radio show and agreed with most everything he said on the air, but as a Congressman, JD"s record wasn't stellar. Now, if it were me, I'd still vote JD just to get that POS McCain out of office, but they are less convinced.

I hope that I am completely wrong, but I have a terrible feeling that John McCain will ultimately die of great old age, while still a Senator. And that really sucks!

McCain is a Democrat schmuck, and there’s nothing Democratic about it. No personal offense intended, but that’s just the facts.

That does it. With the heads of the NRA over in Nevada holding Harry Reids hand was on the verge of being to much. Endorsing McCain is a bridge too far. I will not renew my NRA membership.

National RINO Association?

STOP!
stop right there.

they are NOT a Conservative Organization

they are a Pro Gun Organization

unfortunately Juan McCain has an ‘A’ rating.

The Late Texas Democrat, Charlie Wilson would have been endorsed by the NRA...Murtha was endorsed by the NRA.

It is a political organization only on the 1 front....Pro gun....dont confuse the issue

Yet ANOTHER reason to join the Gun Owners of America and NOT the NRA!

the NRA has the power to let you keep your guns...GOA is a fledgeling irritant to the powers in Washington. the NRA is Power in Washington.

they dont back anti gun candidates...they do howerver back liberal candidates like Juan McCain. unfortunate but they do a good job keeping our guns...

The NRA gave the majority of America the right to carry concealed and dont kid yourselves....

With only a few exceptions, the NRA is basically the National Republican Association.

If there's an incumbent Republican in any particular contest, they are practically guaranteed to be endorsed by the NRA.

I’ll be reconsidering re-upping with them - and letting them know why.

“I will NOT renew my membership.”

Neither will I. I've been a NRA member for decades but I just can't stomach their constant compromising anymore. The NRA have become firmly established within the cocktail and social suck up circles inside the DC beltway.

I also think life will go on without either The American Rifleman or The American Hunter magazines.
