What bumper stickers have you been seeing around your town?
I have seen more Barack Obama stickers than any other. I have also seen a few anti-Barack Obama stickers. Seems conservatives aren't motivated by their support of McCain as much as they are their opposition of the Democrats. After Barack Obama bumper stickers I have seen some McCain stickers, especially in the last few weeks.
But the biggest surprise could be Ron Paul. I have seen a few bumper stickers for him in the last few weeks. His supporters are very intense about their candidate, and it takes a measure of political seriousness to be open and proud about your beliefs.
The odd part though is that the vote of the politically ambivalent counts just as much as people that volunteer, donate money, put bumper stickers on their cars, watch the debates, and post comments to blogs.
When the pollsters report the undecided vote I wonder exactly who these voters are, exactly. I understand if someone is trying to figure out what to do because they don't like either candidate, but beyond that how could someone be undecided at this point?
So, what bumper stickers have you been seeing the most of in your town?
I agree with you Brian - I have seen ALOT more Obama bumper stickers than McCain stickers. Of the McCain stickers, I have seen more McCain/Palin than the others. But it seems like Obama:McCain bumper sticker is about a 7:1 ratio. I hope this doesn't reflect the voting ratio!!
I keep telling you the bumper stickers are in Dianne Alexander's garage!
I've noticed more Obama stickers, but I also live in the Valley, which tends to be more liberal. I did notice that at my dentist appointment in Simi yesterday, I was parked next to someone with a McCain sticker. This made me glad that my Obama '08 sticker was proudly displayed in my window. I'll try to start noticing the stickers more and I'll post again.
As the Dow plummets, the government breaks out the printing press, and the Federal Reserve induces panic, it's nice to see Ron Paul vindicated on his economic views.
He called the whole thing.
Neither of the three socialists Bush, McCain, or Obama understand anything about the economy.
Highly regulated mixed economies in Europe and Asia are falling apart as well.
The day of reckoning on the failure of mixed economics is near.
