NRA endorses Democratic candidates

So far this year, the NRA has endorsed 58 incumbent House Democrats, including more than a dozen in seats that both parties view as critical to winning a majority.

The group's most notable move was to choose not to issue an endorsement in Nevada. The NRA has endorsed a handful of Democratic governors, including such embattled incumbents as Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland and Iowa Gov. Chet Culver.

Rep. Travis Childers (D-Miss.), who faces a tough reelection race against Republican Alan Nunnelee, got an A-plus rating from the NRA in June, plus an endorsement.
