Good riddance to RINOs who work for higher taxes and more gun control.

[Jeff Gordon]

I won't name him.

Why not? Fifth Columnists need to be exposed.

Frederick opposes the ban and most other restrictions on gun owners' rights and was outraged when Rollison received the National Rifle Association's endorsement.

Another NRA mistake.

[ArrogantBustard]

The candidates also clashed on abortion and gun control, particularly Rollison's support for a law prohibiting people from carrying concealed weapons into bars restaurants with an ABC license.

I hate those lying sacks of shiite at the AP.

[Gopher Broke]

The Family Foundation 2003 General Assembly Report Card (just published) shows Rollison at a 73 percent rating (vs. the Rep. House average of 87) so this should be an improvement.....

Thanks for the link to the Family Foundation. Where'd you find the ranking? I went there to find one for Jeanne-Marie Devolites and couldn't find a scorecard with ratings. I see they gave an award to the JMU Board of Visitors about the dispensing of a certain medication. Bravo!
