Sen. Barack Obama received some unusual endorsements of late from a world champion boxer and Iowa's "Butter Cow Lady."
Norma "Duffy" Lyon, known for her life-sized cow sculptures made of butter, is supporting Barack and she's featured in radio ads supporting the senator in Iowa.
"It's the first time I've done this," said Lyon. "He's my candidate and I want to see him do well."
Boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., a world champion who also was recently features on the TV hit "Dancing with the Stars," has also lent his name to Obama.
The boxer has had some trouble with the law and a fiery temper, but an Obama spokesperson said that Mayweather has paid for his mistakes.
Mayweather is a Las Vegas resident and will be helping out with the Nevada campaign.
