Toby Keith has always been a Democrat.
I never checked it out. His patriotic songs led me to believe otherwise. If he’s pro-military and supports Obama he’s a gifted idiot. That’s all I can conclude. I guess he can get in line behind Jackson Browne.
I knew he was a lib but thought he had come around. From Newsmeat.com:

Just because there are more conservative viewpoints in Country, doesn't mean it is not a venue for art. And most artists are liberal.
If you want good, con/libertarian country, listen to Texas Country artists like Cross Canadian Ragweed, Wade Bowen, Stoney LaRue, and Jason Boland. They all love them some Texas.
