AR Congressional Races 2014

The NRA only cares about having folks in Congress who will vote how they want them to on gun control. Cotton has a better record of doing that Pryor, so it would logically make sense for them to support Cotton.

Well, there lies the problem with Pryor if his vote on certain issues can be bought. I understand your point - a fair one. I imagine there is a decent chance the NRA will just skip this race completely since it is essentially a win-win situation for them.

Haha, he basically says Obama's policies are bad for Arkansas, yet has voted with Obama over 90% of the time. I'm becoming more and more optimistic about this race.

More Pryor on how awesome Obamacare is. From the same speech: job losses are just part of a capitalist economy. Latter's Kinsleyan: impolitic truth.

"I'm not opposed to earmarks."

I don't know why, but I have the feeling you will dislike him more and more .

I just find his campaign strategy to be baffling. While many Democratic candidates in GOP states are running away from President Obama and Harry Reid, Mark Pryor seems to be getting closer and closer to him. It's like he's living in a false reality where Arkansas has a large percentage of progressive liberals, just waiting for the right candidate so that they may be unleashed and send him to victory.
