I was hoping this was a given and not news...... :-(

[Monkey Face]

Excellent!

[stevio]

Way to make lemons out of lemonade.

[samtheman]

But they DID endorse him, right?

So are they now WITHDRAWING their endorsement?

(Or were they only THINKING of endorsing him?)

[traderrob6]

The latter.

[LdSentinal]

Endorse Angle then, NRA.

[GILTN1stborn]

I think they were considering. Outrage of membership got to them.

[CedarDave]

After careful consideration, the NRA-PVF announced today that it will not be endorsing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid for re-election in the 2010 U.S. Senate race in Nevada.

[ConservaTexan]

I guess my angry call (and the 1000s of others they recieved) worked.

[mnehring]

None of the above. The head of the NRA said some nice things about Reid and of course, blogs went crazy and the GOA ran with it and started putting together a lot of puzzle pieces to make it appear it was going to happen.

Now, the NRA is endorsing Chet Edwards, something I can't stomach. If it weren't for the fact the only shooting range in town is a NRA member only range, I am tempted to let membership lapse for that one.

[The Sons of Liberty]

NRA will not be endorsing Harry

Not if they ever want another penny from me!

[Howie66]

“(Or were they only THINKING of endorsing him?)”

My thinking is that the NRA, in an effort to “play along, to get along”, was thinking about endorsing Reid.

I do believe that they had a reality check in the number of members that promised to quit and the drop of renewals in membership might have influenced their thinking.

Speaking for only myself, I did call and express my disappointment with the possible endorsement of Reid and followed that with a cancellation of my membership.

We shall see what happens next.

[samtheman]

If they had any guts they would announce that they are endorsing the wholesale elimination of the democratic party from American politics with the hope of doing it in such a timely fashion that the National Socialist EPA won’t have time to ban lead bullets.

That plus AARP probably told them “Tick off them Conservatives and they will drop you like a hot potato” or is that potatoe??? <: <: <:

[Howie66]

Sounds like your town needs another range.

Thank goodness that we have scads of them around here.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

NRA finally comes to its senses. Pork for the NRA in Nevada is not a good reason to send this POS back to DC.

[Clint N. Suhks]

Good, I see my nasty letter worked.
