As You Make Your Primary Choices
By Mitch Berg
The Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance has released its candidate scorecard.
Be advised that anyone that didn’t return their scorecard gets an “F*”, based on the assumption that people who don’t return questionnaires are trying to hide their sentiments until after election time. I think that may have been a fair assumption ten years ago; In the case of many Republican candidates – for instances, District 65’s Senate and both House candidates – I think it’s more a matter of pro-gun libertarians not wanting to hand the DFL another cheap chanting point in a tough area.
And let’s give credit where it’s due; while I’ve railed against Steve Smith’s record in many areas, he’s been a solid Second Amendment vote, although I don’t see Cindy Pugh being any less a supporter.
At any rate, there you go. Vote accordingly.

I’m surprised that Russ Bertsch (42A) didn’t return his questionnaire — he’ll be solid, though.
