"Abott or Davis?
Answer: The choice is as clear as seeing the sun at noon."

Who? :headscratch

One, who to my knowledge has honored his commitments... :txflag:

or

One that said "I Do" until the bills are paid and then says "I'm Gone"... :roll:

In case you haven't noticed I like 'Smilies'... :anamatedbanana

***SNIP **** But I always look at other issues I consider important too. I urge you to do the same.
I don't think I understand this... :confused5

My complaint was that other issues are not considered by the 2nd Amendment groups and they usually do not consider all of the candidates for the office in their selection. It also seems that the incumbent is usually the winner regardless of the challenger's agenda... I guess a bird in hand beats two in the bush...

:iagree:I agree that a person's stand on the 2nd Amendment is usually an indicator as to their stand on other issues of importance to me; that is why I have thrown a lot of money, relative to my income, at the 2nd Amendment groups.

I left the NRA over Edwards but rejoined because of the many 2nd amendment foes... Check my signature line... :patriot: :txflag: :hurry:

Re: 2014 Primary Polling shows Cornyn may be on the ropes

It bothers that the NRA and TSRA are at odds with me on candidate choices almost every election. I will not vote for John Cornyn but there is a BIG ad endorsing him in the latest Rifleman. I am strong Tea Party and was an EARLY supporter of Ted Cruz which Cornyn is not and will not be...

I believe our National Representative, John Carter is also highly recommended but he has no opponent;he is pro illegal immigrants and a good candidate could have taken him out. He was the chair on the committee to come up with the Republican amnesty plan until he got cooked, and it wasn't a slow boil either, at a local Town Hall.

The TSRA has endorsed the incumbent in Texas District 55 but a more conservative, pro-2nd Amendment person is available.

In previous elections the NRA was endorsing the less conservative (Democrat) candidate for our National Representative, Chet Edwards. At that time the District included Fort Hood. I dropped NRA membership over that one.

I realize that the 2nd Amendment groups are myopic as on that issue but by being so we wound up with 'pro-gun' Harry Reid as the Senate Majority Leader and you see what that has got us.... :rules:
