MONTGOMERY – The National Rifle Association (NRA) announced today that James
Anderson, the Democratic candidate for Alabama Attorney General, has been
given an “A” rating by its nearly 4,000,000 members. According to the NRA,
the high rating was based on Anderson’s “enthusiasm for the Second Amendment
and the attention to firearm-related issues” during his campaign.

on trail
The MetroWest Daily News - By Kyle Cheney - September 29, 2010
Boston — Still smarting from a momentous defeat in January’s U.S. Senate
special election, Democratic Attorney General Martha Coakley is fighting on
two fronts in her race for reelection: against Republican Jim McKenna, an
unexpected write-in candidate who won enough votes to appear on the November
ballot, and for the support of a public that soured on her, electing
Republican Scott Brown to succeed Ted Kennedy.

[10]Homophobic Assistant Attorney General Gets to Keep His Job Despite
Harassing Student President
New York Magazine – September 30, 2010
When the news first came to light that Andrew Shirvell, an assistant
attorney general in Michigan, had been waging a hostile, unprovoked campaign
against Chris Armstrong, the University of Michigan's gay student-assembly
president, Shirvell's employers mostly stayed mum. Attorney General Mike Cox
declined to comment except to note Shirvell's "immaturity and lack of
judgment outside the office." Last night, on AC360°, Cox emphasized again
that Shirvell's actions against Armstrong are extracurricular, adding that
Shirvell is within his rights to be a bigot and that he'll continue to work
at the attorney general's office.
