Senator Mike DeWine has become the first U.S. Senator this campaign season to earn the endorsement of the Brady Campaign, a leading anti-gun and anti-self defense organization. Not many people have a stronger anti-gun record than DeWine’s opponent, Congressman Sherrod Brown, but DeWine can claim that dishonor.

Quoting the Brady Campaigns Peter Hamm, the Cleveland Plain dealer wrote:

"Sherrod Brown has a perfectly fine record on our issues, so we are by no means saying anything critical of Mr. Brown," Hamm said. But DeWine's record really wowed the group.

Quoting Sarah Brady, the Cincinnati Inquirer wrote:

Sarah Brady, who is honorary chairwoman of the campaign, said that in a political world where many pander to special interests, DeWine "consistently and reliably does the right thing for his country and for the people of Ohio."

If anyone would know about political pandering and special interests, it’s Sarah Brady. Too bad neither she nor DeWine know the first thing about firearms or what is right for the victims of violent crime, including such basic things as survival.
