In a new round of grades from the nation's leading gun-rights group, Republican U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey barely passed.
The National Rifle Association gave Toomey, who is facing a tough re-election battle, a "C" in its grades for this year's candidates. That's a downgrade from Toomey's 2010 Senate bid, when he drew an "A" grade and the powerful group's endorsement.
The NRA does not specify which votes or public statements it uses in its ratings, but it opposed Toomey's most well-known action on gun policy: the gun background-check bill he crafted with U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va. |
