Hunters and Shooters Support Obama: He "Gets It"

A few days ago, the Huffington post reported that the American Hunters and Shooters Organization Supports Obama. This group, according to the Wiki, appears to be a moderate (Democrat) pro-gun lobby. In any case, in the wake of Hillary's Annie-Oakley offensive, this group endorsed Obama and repudiated Hillary:

"Senator Obama has clearly demonstrated his commitment to the 2nd Amendment by his vote in support of the Vitter amendment to HR 5441, the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations bill of 2007. This amendment prevents the Government from confiscating guns in a time of crisis or emergency. Imagine how the citizens felt during Hurricane Katrina when government agents kicked in doors to confiscate law abiding citizens' guns at a time when they needed them the most. We know Senator Obama 'gets it.' To say that he is an elitist is patently ridiculous."

This is good news for Obama, both because the more endorsements the better, and because it shows just how judicious and wise Obama is. I also would support the Vitter amendment, and it's a great example of a smart pro-gun policy.
