“The D.C. gun ban works – just ask James Brady…”
To follow up on Grokster Steve’s post yesterday…
Should it have been a surprise that these six RINO’s voted the way they did? No. We already had hard evidence they could not be counted upon as evidenced by the pre-election grade assigned by the NRA.
Rep. Dennis Fields (R)INO Belknap 4 -Sanbornton; NRA Grade: C
Not necessarily a passing grade. A candidate with a mixed record or positions on gun related issues, who may oppose some pro-gun positions or support some restrictive legislation.
Karel A. Crawford, (R)INO, Carroll 4 – Center Harbor; NRA Grade: ?
“?”Refused to answer the NRA-PVF Candidate Questionnaire, often an indication of indifference, if not outright hostility, to gun owners’ and sportsmen’s rights.
Carolyn M. Gargacz, (R)INO, Hillsborough 27 – Hollis; NRA Grade: C+
Not necessarily a passing grade. A candidate with a mixed record or positions on gun related issues, who may oppose some pro-gun positions or support some restrictive legislation.
Priscilla P. Lockwood, (R)INO, Merrimack 9, – Canterbury; NRA Grade: B
A generally pro-gun candidate. However, a “B” candidate may have opposed some pro-gun reform or supported some restrictive legislation in the past.
David H. Kidder, (R)INO, Merrimack 5, – New London; NRA Grade: D
An anti-gun candidate who usually supports restrictive gun control legislation and opposes pro-gun reforms. Regardless of public statements, can usually be counted on to vote wrong on key issues.
Steve Vaillancourt (R)INO, Hillsborough 15, – South Manchester; NRA Grade B+
A generally pro-gun candidate. However, a “B” candidate may have opposed some pro-gun reform or supported some restrictive legislation in the past.
But there is good news…for now. And that good news is that the constitution means something because those who garnered favorable ratings from the NRA honored their grade. Vaillancourt, Lockwood, not so much…
There was no backstabbing. We actually had an idea how this six would vote. And true to form, they did.
