Global Warming Posing Political Quandary for Sportsmen

From New West: "While the 1,000-plus sportsmen surveyed voted for by a 2-1 margin for President Bush, who has sought to dismiss global warming as an environmentalist exaggeration, 71% said they were concerned about diminishing fish and wildlife populations and many had seen direct impacts of climate change in the field. They also rejected the Bush Administration's fossil-fuel-based energy policy and want more conservation and clean fuels."

So the question becomes, are they concerned enough about global warming and fossil-fuel dependence to vote for a Democrat? Oh the torn conscience of a Western outdoorsman!
