Starting to see more and more McCain/Palin signs and stickers. Around here, there’s about as many RonPaul signs still up as there are Obama ones. not many, a few, but not many.

The only people I know voting for Obama are women who are Abortion Nazis and your usual San Francisco Anarchists who want to see the entire country go down the tubes because someone stuffed their geeky selves into a locker at some midwestern high school 15 years ago.

A lot of Obama. A few McCain, but I think folks are afraid of getting their cars keyed. In speaking with others, I know of a few who will vote Obama and most voting McCain, but that is my circle.

Can't say, but I live in an area heavily dependent on the DOD and missile defense. I cringe whenever I see an Obama08 sticker. I don't understand why these folks can't see that an Obie presidency probably means an end to their gainful employment.

Southeast Phoenix here ( AZ). Have not seen any campaign posters, signs etc. for McCain or Obama. I have seen many campaign signs for the local and state races.

I’ve only seen 2 Obama signs and 0 for McCain. Interesting because the latest poll has McCain up 69-31 in the state polls.

Leans Obama here by stickers. Few signs for either candidate. I'm in a 50/50 area and have an Ann Arbor mailing address although I do not live in the city.

I am seeing more McCain stuff however. I think many Republicans are concerned about some punk ass anarchist screwing with their cars.

Here in the heart of the People's Republic of Portland, OR, it's Obama by a wide margin. I see plenty of his lawn gear and bumper stickers, only occasionally something for McCain.

It's unlikely that McCain will win OR; I'm more worried about Sen. Gordon Smith (R). He's running against a state congress critter named Jeff Merkley and it's neck and neck.

Smith is a bit of a RINO, but in OR he's got to be and he is better than Merkley.

I’ve seen many Obama signs on the lawns of McMansions. I’d love someone to make a photo journal of these signs. It would be very funny.

I live in Kalamazoo/Portage Michigan, and almost anywhere you go, you will see about 4 or 5 cars minimum with an Obama sticker. You can’t hardly go a block in town without seeing a few Obama signs.

However in the last couple days I have seen a few McCain signs in yards. I have only seen like two or three McCain stickers on cars all summer.

Agreed

Here in central Florida, the only signs I’ve seen are two Osama yard signs and a few bumper stickers. Same thing with the last few elections, rare Bush sighs etc.

The reason for this is that the party of Tolerance, open-mindedness and peace, where all opinions are welcome and intellectual discourse is encouraged; will kill your lawn, key your car, cut off you wife and kids while yelling profanities in traffic, and openly threaten people in public.
Usually shouting the word “Fascist” in the obligatory tirade – ( now that’s funny )

And trust me Kids~ its gonna get worse…

A few signs for local and state races and many McCain bumper stickers. A few Obama bumper stickers on Volvos and VW buses; mostly grey-haired pony tailed tree hugger tourists from San Francisco with sleeping bags and crap stuffed into the back, and one Obama sign on a front lawn which is the talk of the town.

I was at McCain Headquarters last Saturday here in Pasadena, California. About 5 people came in, another 5 called, asking for yard signs. There were none available. They had followed the truck, it was supposed to have arrived in the area but had not yet downloaded. We surmised that: 1) the union drivers had ditched the signs; 2) or, more likely, that McCain Headquarters were swamped after the convention and were still getting orders out.

Mine, ordered online, came this week, tho, as did my Maverick/Barracuda car sticker. As did my 3x5 Alaskan flag, which I hung on my porch as a campaign sign.

I have not seen a lot of Obama stickers here in Liberal Land. That surprises me, really. The last frothing I heard FOR him was in June, right after he clinched things. It’s been REAL quiet since then, doesn’t seem to be any excitement about him.

I’ll be registering voters at the Farmers’ Market on Saturdays; THAT should be interesting.

Believe it or not, I've only seen ONE Obama sticker and three McCain stickers (mine included) in the very blue state of Hawaii.

Bucks County, PA here. Tons of McCain signs around here. Obama had a pretty good ground game here in the primary (he lost the county overall but carried Doylestown Borough which has a lot of aging hippies and latte liberals) but it doesn't seem to be carrying over to the general.. This is a huge swing county in a huge battleground state and I think it will be quite a bellwether.

I have several neighbors who told me a year ago they would not vote for any Republican under any circumstances. Two of them now have McCain signs in their yards.

This guy doesn't have anything to say about McCain or 0bama, but I think I know who he'd support. BTW, the bumper sticker on the lower left reads: THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH LIBERALS.

I heard on Hewitt's show yesterday a woman puts a McCain magnet on her car every morning, then takes it off at work, then puts it back on when she goes home. Oh, how tolerant they are...

In my zip code, the yard sign edge goes Obama. Same for bumper stickers on PARKED vehicles.

Stickers on Moving Cars seem to favor Palin or McCain or the NRA.

My wife wants a mccain Palin car MAGNET.
