Nothing wrong with posting this whether he's supported Republican candidates in the past or not. And I doubt that every Broncos Fan knows what his political leanings are. So there you have it. It's just cool to see Elway get a headline on Drudge supporting the right guy for Prez.

Nothing new here. Elway has been an argent supporter of the RNC for a long time. He's in one of the few tax-brackets where voting for Mitty actually benefits him financially. I can disagree with John Elway's political ideology and still respect him as childhood hero, a player, and as GM.

Holy ****, take a look at Elway's twitter mentions since this broke out.

I'm a republican and they do a lot of stupid ****, but no one can deny there are absolute crazies on both sides.

Hopefully these same people don't go into lynch mode when they find out Manning's a republican too.

Statistically speaking, most middle-aged white male millionaires are Republicans. He fits their strongest demographic.

Brett Farve, Steve Young, Troy Aikman, Peyton Manning, Jim Kelly, Tom Brady, John Elway, Dan Marino.

Serious question for those of you who live in Colorado... will Elway's endorsement change anyone's vote/mind? Do you know of anyone who was on the fence (or intending to vote for Obama) who will be swayed by this?



Serious question #2: Is Elway wearing those jackets in all earnestness, or ironically? Oy vey!
