In my landlord's front yard. :(

1. Rockingham County has a few of them
and some "Another Democrat for McCain." God Bless their pitiful souls.

10. Those signs make my blood boil and I'm sure that is the point.
Racist asshole republicans trying to pretend that they "used to be" democrats until Obama came along.

2. Avoid a rent increase
Tell the Landlord you love McNuts, and then excuse yourself so you can go wretch.

8. Haha, exactly. There are some battles best not started.
If someone can take away your earnings or increase your bills... avoid where you can. :rofl:

3. I've seen quite a few in Raleigh; not many inside-the-Beltline, but elsewhere.

And I saw NONE before Mooselini joined the ticket. But then again, I did see a huge sign of Palin with a big red circle/slash through it on Blue Ridge Road near the mall. That made my day.

4. Saw my first three yesterday
Shook my head. These fools think McCain is going to help them! BTW, this is the reddest part of Arkansas, with active racist/hate groups. I think it interesting that I have seen so few signs for McCain. There are plenty of signs for local candidates, but only those three for the top of the ticket.

6. That reminds me.
I need to drive around tomorrow and see if any of the ones that popped up here right before the debate are still there.

I've yet to see a bumper sticker for McCain in my county (Alamance) except for the one on a big SUV with Virginia plates--was sitting behind the lipsticked hockey mom at a traffic light, and when she looked up at me in the rear view mirror, I laughed and did that swirly finger to the temple thing. :evilgrin:

I know, I'm bad. But I'm past menopause and I've earned it. Further down the road, she pulled into the other lane and slowed down, I guess to check out what was on my car, but so far I only have a window cling from our county party office.

7. There is one in my neighborhood too
My daughter is actually Friends with their daughter but the politics drives her mad. THey are holy rollers and there is no where to go with it.
They actually have a picture of George and Laura in their kitchen. My daughter said that when she was there for a sleepover, she couldn't eat breakfast with them looking at her.

SOme people are just hopeless.

I just shake my head when I see them. I have been seeing a lot of Obama signs recently though.

EDIT: Meant to be a reply to the OP

12. I've only seen a couple of McCain/Palin signs here in FL.
They are usually in front of large horse farms which should tell you something about how economically depressed McCain supporters are.

I can't say that I've seen more than a couple of bumper stickers for McCain either.
