Obama is in PA saying he is a pro-gun supporter. Check out what he told John Lott personally in the mid 90's.......

Unbelievable: "Obama aims for pro-gun vote"


Politico has the most amazing article:
Barack Obama did not hunt or fish as a child. He lives in a big city. And as an Illinois state legislator and a U.S. senator, he consistently backed gun control legislation.

But he is nevertheless making a play for pro-gun voters in rural Pennsylvania.

By highlighting his background in constitutional law and downplaying his voting record, Obama is engaging in a quiet but targeted drive to win over an important constituency that on the surface might seem hostile to his views.

The need to craft a strategy aimed at pro-gun voters underscores the potency of the issue in Pennsylvania, which claims one of the nation's highest per capita membership rates in the National Rifle Association. . . .
This is the same guy who told me back in the mid-1990s when we were talking about the Chicago lawsuit against gun makers that he didn't think that anybody should be able to own a gun.

I think Semator Obama would like to show that he can get up close and personal
with, "Gun-toting red-necks."
