** Obama Sign Thief-Cam: Watch for sign thieves LIVE! **
There's an Obama supporter in Portland, Oregon, who has had her Obama/Biden sign stolen twice from her yard, so her son set up a live webcam in hopes of catching the sign-stealer in the act. You can actually click on the link below and watch the sign in the front yard and participate in the live chat taking place.

5. I prefer a pit with spikes. Less collateral damage. And easier to prepare than messing
with explosives.

The theft of lawn signs will start up for real pretty soon and unless you protect yours, you will lose it.

21. I bought a mess of these 12d Nails.



They have been strategically placed around my Obama sign by the front of the house. A 12d nail is 3-1/4" long. The screaming will be a good indicator that someone is trying to abscond with my sign.

OK, I have no idea who Merkley is. Just thought I'd keep a DU-mindset here.

18. My habanero defense
My Garden has produced an abundance of peppers this year (seven different types.) I have never grown habaneros before and, after eating a few, I doubt that I'll grow them again.

But since I finally picked up an Obama/Biden sign to put up near my country driveway, I've decided to throw a bunch of habaneros in the blender, crush them up and liberally coat my Obama sign with the paste, all around the edges where a sign thief is likely to grab it.

From my sign to their eyes (I hope). Here kitty, kitty, kitty ....

19. $20 says that the thief will be a redneck in his twenties or thirties.

20. Why don't they just get their own signs?
Local supporters give them out in my area--no need to steal one from anybody else. The same goes for bumper stickers.

That's kinda cool because it's like a 24/7 citizens watch. :)

29. Well alrighty then! This is hilariously funny (and sad too) but
leave it to Obama supporters to make the best of a situation.
