I think that "pressure group" is more appropriate than "lobby group", which seems awkward and less accurate; in any event, either may be perceived as perjorative when in fact neither term is necessarily. I think that what CRA does is better characterized as functioning as a "pressure group" than it is "lobbying" but will wait for more discussion or at least until a little time passes with no discussion prior to reverting.

I agree with that, and am making the change, since nobody seems to have commented in over a year. The group's main function is as a pressure group in internal Republican Party politics, to promote conservative and oppose liberal candidates. As far as I can tell, they don't do much actual lobbying. --Delirium 18:16, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
