I saw a nice scene coming into work this morning.
I saw a sign laying in the middle of a highway this morning, all crumpled and destroyed. When I drove over it, I realized that is was a Bush / Cheney sign. Hopefully the shape of things to come.

1. Bush probably didn't pay
the person who was supposed to be holding the sign.

Or maybe the person who was given the sign
simply decided to make a political statement
after their shift ended.

In some cases, the Bush-Cheney workers who lined the east side of the Green Friday supported neither Bush nor his opponent, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry.
David Carney, 21, a senior from St. Michael's College in Vermont, has already cast an absentee ballot for Ralph Nader in his home state of California. The self-described socialist said he's tried to find a job, and this was the only work he could get.
"I need food. I haven't had a job for so many months," Carney said. "I've got to buy groceries."
The money has attracted Carney and other students from colleges in the region such as Vermont University and Norwich University. In contrast to volunteers for Kerry, who stood waving signs on the corner of the sidewalk, most of the Bush-Cheney campaigners sat listlessly on the Green's senior fence, wearing campaign stickers but NOT BRANDISHING SIGNS.
A few said they were ardent Bush supporters, but the majority said they just needed the money.
