He never said anything about people who don't support him being crazy religious gun nuts. Semi-fair game if you want to say he called small town people crazy, religious, gun-nuts, but he never implied that this was anyone who didn't support him.
Though you probably did not care to read or hear his clarification he specified that the intention of his comment was that when people are feeling as if the government isn't serving them, they get frustrated (and yes, bitter), and instead of focusing on fixing the problem, they focus on the big "issue" of their choice. This would be an example: "I don't think Candidate A or Candidate B will actually get jobs back, but I think B wants to take away my right to bear arms, so I'm voting for A."
Obama is suggesting that you actually vote for someone, not against someone else. JMO.
Of course, feel free to think he's a self-absorbed semi-Messianic figure, it's quite certainly your right.
