I want to emphasize that this happened in Appalachia (West Virginia), a supposed Obama weak spot.
Here's the interesting part. The NRA was trying to get miners on record as opposing Obama for an ad, but the miners didn't like it and closed down the mine. Their union had already endorsed Obama. So what does the NRA do? They blame the mine's closure on "mischief driven by the Obama campaign."

P.S. I'm not saying this made the difference, but the radio ad that Blue Grass legend Ralph Stanley cut for Obama had to be helpful. You can listen to it here.
