Scott Walker, NRA Have History Of Mutual Aid
National Rifle Association member Scott Walker has:
* Received an "A+" rating from the NRA, the group says.
* Benefited from heavy NRA spending in Wisconsin to weaken Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle, helping to pave the way for Walker's successful 2010 run.
* Stood with NRA Vice-President Wayne LaPierre at the concealed carry bill signing - - a long-sought measure for Wisconsin by both Walker and the NRA.
* Met Ted Nugent at a recent NRA convention and touted the signing of the so-called "Castle Doctrine" bill for Wisconsin, another NRA priority measure.
* Asked NRA convention delegates in 2012 for recall campaign donations, saying "I have become a target" and "they want to take me out."
* Enjoyed more than $800,000 in NRA spending during the recall election.
* Continued, after the Newtown, CT shootings, to oppose closing gun-show loophole allowing private gun sales without background checks, and said he's open to stationing armed officers in every school - - both key NRA positions.

If I missed Walker's response, or proposals, please correct me.

For the record, Walker's often had a presence at State Fair.
