If the NRA is so right wing why did they contribute $4950 to Harry Reid's election campaign in 2010? Which , by the way, is only $50 dollars under the maximum allowed by allowing according to the folowing link:

I have repeatedly asked you the following question and you keep ignoring it: exactly what would convince you that the only issue NRA cares about is firearms and the related rights and that they will support anybody, Democrat, Republican or Independent who supports firearms and the related rights?

And I have already shown that based on donations, that the NRA contributed 45.5% of the money it spent in the 2010 Congressional House elections on DEMOCRATIC members. Something you've ignoired because it doesn't fit your agenda.
