CAUTION..before you add in your opinions, I am curious about something.
This has NOTHING to do with the race for President.
So, keeping this in mind..let's not get snarky, or anything else this board can do to change the ?? QUESTION..
Who's signs do you see more often?
Mc Cain...
or
OBAMA?
I live in Minnesota, for me, I see OBAMA..all over the place..I saw today..ONE Mc Cain, in very rich neighborhoods, and mine, when I go to my studio, the OBAMA..in my house area not so RICH ..OBAMA..this means nothing..I am just curious..what do you see?
Can be bumperstickers as well..what do you see?
WHAT DO YOU SEE?

Where I live, I see more McCain. Now, this morning when I was in town I saw a tiny little rally going on at our local park for Democrats. I kid you not there were 4 (FOUR) cars. I'm in Gulf Coast Alabama

Although I see a fair amount of both here in NJ I think I see more Obama - or maybe I just notice more of them.

To be honest, here in Memphis there are nowhere near the number of signs up that you would expect. The bumper stickers and signs around here probably reflect the polls...basically 50/50.

I was just out today and I saw wayyy more McCain actually, I dont think I saw one Obama sign. Of course it depends on where you go and what you notice there could have been some Obamas. I live in TN though so obviously it leans republican.

I have seen absolutely NO Presidential signs.
Lots of local election signs, but none for President.

I live in Corpus Christi, Texas (south Texas, coastal area). It is strange, because we usually have TONS and TONS of political signs for Presidential elections.

My neighbor is a brave man. He has a McCain sign. I still pick up his groceries for him despite that fact, lol. He's almost 90. McCain signs are definitely rare in the northeast.

I think I have seen just as many signs for both. I agree it depends on what part of town you are in. I haven't seen to many bumper stickers though.
And for it being so close to the election, I am surprised I haven't seen more. Usually the town is plastered with all kind of signs during voting time.
Now if we could just get them to stop sending the junk mail lol.

People can be so ignorant. Apparently people haven't learned from the mistakes of the past. I read the article and you'd think they'd learn from history.

I see boatloads of McCain stickers, including my car.

but hardly any yard signs except for "poorer" neighborhoods / ghettos and they are all Obama

I'm in a suburb in the Columbus Ohio area. Our city tends be a huge Republican area - so therefore mainly McCain signs are the trend.

while that article is sad, the same can be said for when people burn the flag.

it doesn't even get much press time.

I live in a middle/upper middle class neighborhood in a well to do suburb of Phoenix and I see mostly Obama signs and bumper stickers.

I don't see hardly any president signs. I think people are fed up with all government this year.

I do see a few McCain/Palin signs but no Obama. When we were up in KC and into MO last week I saw just as many McCain/Palin signs as Obama, maybe even more McCain and it was Independence, Mo which is Truman country.

There is a McCain sign across the street on the front lawn. We live in Massachusetts and I think I've seen more for McCain. I have seen a couple of Obama bumper stickers.

I'm in Orlando and it depends on what part of town you are in - upper middle class and up you see McCain - poorer areas you see Obama. Cars the same - SUV's & such you see McCain - small cars Obama.
