2. Wow! That's a loaded question.
I saw more bumper stickers for Kerry than Bush on the way back. On the way out, I think it was even. Still, people don't tend to use bumper stickers very much.

I stayed in a motel in a very conservative section of PA. The paper had done a poll, and people were for Bush and were also very anti-abortion it seemed. So hopefully other sections of PA will make up for it.

8. Also I might add that military families seem to favor Kerry
I don't have a large sample size...

But in my Mom's small town there are 2 families she knows about that had/have a guy in Iraq.

On the lawn of the inlaws of the guy stationed in Iraq now is a big Kerry/Edwards sign.

Also, my Mom was talking to the mother of a guy who had previously been in Iraq. My Mom gave her an extra Kerry/Edwards sign that we had. The woman was so excited! She HATES Bush! This woman talks to a lot of people, so we hope she spreads her enthusiasm for wanting BUsh out.

3. I saw the best bumper sticker
on vacation this August in Kentucky. "Family Values is having your little brother help you steal the election."

5. LOL! How true!
It's a rather twisted kind of family values though.

I saw a bumper sticker that said "The Dixie Chicks Were Right"

6. Did you happen to see this bumper sticker at all?


I make and sell these - just wondered how many were actually displaying them. Lots of sales in Florida... :evilgrin:

7. HAHA! No, I don't think I saw that one.
ALthough I didn't always get close enough to cars. I could tell that more had "John Kerry" bumper stickers than had "Kerry/Edwards" ones. I don't think I saw any of yours.
