When Will ALEC #DumpNRA

Two things just hit me in kinda a bomb

First - ALEC is spending a crapload of their corporate donated funds to pay PR company Edelman to whitewash their nasty little image. (Unless of course, Edelman is an ALEC member and just donating their services - always a possibility.)

Second - For ALEC, having a buddy like the NRA is like owning a pet gorilla that keeps throwing poop at you.

So the question is:
When is the American Legislative Exchange Council going to publicly DumpNRA?  Or are the NRA's $$$'s worth more to ALEC , than the bad publicity the NRA keeps bringing to ALEC's door.

Gotta be the $$$$$$$
Silly me - it is the $$$ - that is all ALEC is concerned with.

UPDATE:
I'm pretty sure JOhn Nichols wouldn't want to be on this particular blog page -
But - it is appropos.

This morning – you have this from John Nichols at the Nation
