NRA Politicking In Indy


Attendees to the NRA convention in Indy this week heard more than a handful of politicians speak today, including several potential Republican presidential candidates. Gov. Mike Pence and Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA) spoke as did Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA). Firebrand radio talk show host Mark Levin made an appearance and took home a special Indiana-made gun made just for him. Sen. Dan Coats was on hand to remind us that he's planning to seek another 6-year term to represent a state in which he's not resided in decades. And there was even a spot for Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri. There's an estimate 70,000 people expected in town for the NRA convention, although it looked like a much smaller crowd than that on hand at Lucas Oil Stadium to listen to the various speakers.

For the life of me, I can't understand how folks in Indiana have come to be represented by the likes of Dan Coats and Joe Donnelly(sp?).

If there was ever an argument for repealing the 17th amendment, it would be these two.

Annon 8:57, I agree, one is a puppet for Obama the other is a resident of North Carolina, and is in foot step with the power brokers!
Good work Indiana voters.
Am I the only one in Indiana who feels helpless?
