From Roll Call<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“… By now, Republican laments that presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney<\/a> is not the most inspiring figure to ever run for president are well-known … at a June 30 fundraiser in Wheeling, W.Va., Speaker John Boehner<\/a> offered a surprisingly frank assessment of the dynamic that surprised some in the audience. Aside from Romney\u2019s \u201cfriends, relatives and fellow Mormons,\u201d Boehner said, most people will be motivated to vote for him in opposition to Obama<\/a> …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s good that he admitted this because Romney’s campaign is not exactly setting the country on fire. \u00a0Gun owners certainly are not that enthused about him.<\/p>\n

NRA<\/a> should follow suit and acknowledge Romney is probably the better of the two choices and not try and portray him as something he’s not, like they did with John McCain<\/a> back in ’08.<\/p>\n
