Today's version of strange bedfellows - Obama and hunters

From the Dept. of Didn't See This One Coming, the American Hunters and Shooters Association has endorsed Barack Obama. So much for the black guy from Harvard not getting along with gun owners. I wonder what the reaction from the NRA is going to be. Maybe this is a group of leftist and liberal hunters and shooters? Regardless, they're enthusiastic:
Senator Obama will be a strong and authentic voice for America's hunters and shooters and it is with great pleasure that we endorse his candidacy.
Just when you thot this campaign couldn't get any weirder. So, in one day, that's Bruce Springsteen and hunters and shooters. And the Teamsters several months ago. I'm feeling ever more comfortable about being a straight white liberal American male supporting Barack Obama. Now we just need Brett Favre to make an Obama campaign commercial, and it will be game over.
