1. I'm surprised we haven't heard more of these attacks

Frankly, I think Dean's NRA ties are overrated -- after all, he supports all of the current gun laws (including renewal of the 1994 ban on semiautomatic weapons) and opposes a bill the NRA supports that would limit liability of gun dealers for crimes committed with firearms they sell. That's more than enough to cost Dean any NRA support in the 2004 election.

But still, Dean has often played up his "A" rating from the NRA, so it's only fair to go after on the one issue where his views seem to be out of line with the left-wing party activists.
