Good job, Senator Casey! Anyone know who the NRA supportered, between him and Santorum in 2006?

http://ontheissues.org/Domestic/Bob_Casey_Gun_Control.htm

Strong supporter of the second amendment

Casey opposes gun-control laws, including the 10-year ban on 19 types of assault weapons that expired in 2004. He vowed to aggressively court sportsmen's support by emphasizing his character, his long support for gun owners' rights and his record in state government. "I've been a strong supporter of the second amendment, the right to bear arms. That's evidenced not just by what I've said but the support I've gotten over the last decade from sportsmen's groups, including the NRA," Casey said.

Casey recieved an "A" rating from the NRA, while Santorum received an "A+". The NRA put more than $337,000 into supporting Santorum’s losing campaign.
Word was that Casey supported "full funding" of the BATFE, and that has never set well with gun owners.

Bottom line...PA ended up with a good man.
