| #10 Life Member of the NRA myself. But its the Gun Owners of America that has been the most protective of our rights. The NRA is all too willing to play insider games and compromise things that should never be compromised. Change the NRA board when you get a chance to vote, dump LaPierre and cronies for being mush. Also, for legal things, look into the Second Amendment Foundations - those guys work the courts. The NRA needs to score votes for leadership as well as simple gun votes. |

| #8 I'm a lifetime member of the NRA. At the state level we have TFA which does a good job. The NRA should continue to be a one issue organization otherwise they will get diluted and become ineffective. At the same time they need to look over their endorsements carefully on a larger scale. Because someone has a good record of supporting firearms rights doesn't mean the candidate isn't a worthless POS. |

| #6 This is how Harry can win hands down. All he needs to do is get the crooks from Chicago to whisper into the SecAF's ear to announce that Nellis AFB is on the block. Harry can step up, raise his arms and say over my dead senate leader body. Then he as senate party leader becomes important to Nevada. It's a mafia move, but it would work. Don't worry, I'm voting for that idiot Angle. |

| #5 I'm also Lifetime NRA, mostly glad that I am. It's a pretty democratic organization. They tried to hide behind the "we're a one-issue orgaization" lame excuse recently. It's a big picture world now. Join up and hold 'em to that fact... |

| #4 newc, I'm a lifetime NRA member but don't disagree w/your sentiments...I've found manytimes it is almost more effective to support the local state or grass roots gun orgs. When I was in the Ohio, Buckeye Firearms seemed to do good work. NRA does do good work but they're definitely not 100% right all the time. |

| #3 They all keep sending requests for $. I keep throwing them all out. Give you money directly to candidates you agree with, beggars you can stand the smell of and gun shops that offer a square deal... |
