Obama’s ‘Abercrombie’ fans: Anybody know these guys?

Any bets on whether the boys at The Daily Show and Colbert Report are preparing something about this?
Three very noticeable guys in Abercrombie & Fitch shirts got a lot of TV time Tuesday night as they stood behind Sen. Barack Obama while he spoke in Evansville, Ind.
Campaign spokesman Tommy Vietor says the Obama folks don’t know anything about the three or why they’re all decked out in gear from the casual outfitter. We’ve left a message with the clothing company to see if it knows anything.
Jeff Jarvis at Buzz Machine says “either there is a story there or the Obama campaign is its own demographic cliche.” From the conservative side, Mary Katharine Ham at Townhall.com wonders if Obama is “the product placement candidate.”
