Hello,

1st, I am glad to hear the man is OK. 2nd: Here is my prediction re: this accident:

The Dims and the media will not be able to control themselves in slamming the VP, hunting (for poor defenseless animals) and guns. The will lose it over this one. This will play well on the Liberal Coasts and with Leno's audience.
However, this will go over like a fart in church in states like Ohio, where hunting is an important part of life. And just as in 2004, Ohio and other Midwest states will be extremely important in 2008.
This could end up being the outdoor equivalent of the Wellstone Memorial/King Funeral Political Rally.

Glad to be here, MOgirl

If it had been Clinton, Gore, or Kerry on some phoney hunting trip they would have dug up some other poor sucker to take the fall for this.

Correct, accidents like this happen a lot and usually create bonds with people over it as long as no one is seriously hurt, which is the case with bird pellets
