National Review has this piece that talks about Virginia’s NRA Endorsed U.S. Senate Candidate Ed Gillespie:
While Gillespie is focused on selling positive solutions, there is plenty in Warner’s record that should turn off not only conservative voters but also centrists aplenty. For one, Warner has slavishly voted for every one of President Obama’s nominees to the courts and executive agencies — even for radical lawyer Debo Adegbile, infamous for playing the race card while pushing for the release of the vicious cop killer Mumia Abu-Jubal. Seven other Democrats — but not Warner — joined Republicans in killing Adegbile’s nomination to head the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. This put Warner to the left even of Delaware’s leftist Chris Coons, who has a rating of 100 percent from Americans for Democratic Action and a lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union of just 2 percent.
Add to the above list that Warner voted to criminalize the private sale of firearms between longtime friends and gun club members. Warner has worked hard to carefully craft the illusion that he is a “radical centrist.” Don’t believe it. Warner has done nothing to move any of the bills passed in the House but languishing on Harry Reid’s desk. Gun owners can make the difference in this race. Off-year elections are about who shows up on election day. You can find out how to volunteer for Gillespie by going here.
