my opponent has really crossed a line

she's making statements to the media that I am "not fighting the NRA"   John: This is outrageous. With only a week to go until election day, my opponent is going negative. Her campaign just released a statement to the local press claiming "I am not fighting the NRA..." Really? I need yo…
