Oberweis signs popping up


...in northern Lake county. I just saw 8 of them on a three mile stretch on Rt 59.

Anyone else seeing any signs?

Cheers

2. If Blago was in a stronger position

I might advocate taking a Republican ballot in the primary and voting for Oberweis.

Now I fear that if he can snag the nomination he has a real shot of winning.

However the signs I've seen for any candidate thus far are few and far between.

When I was in Peoria a few weeks ago there were a lot of Brady signs on the farms down 55.

4. Can somebody Photoshop a pic of Hitler?
Maybe put a milk mustache above his dark one with a "Got Oberweis?" line under it? Seems to me THAT would pretty much sum him up...

I've seen a few down here in Champaign County, but mostly I keep reading buzz about Brady on the local GOP blog. I have only seen one Brady sign--and it is a BIG one--but, the local blog buzz is not about Oberweis or Topinka either one.

5. Seen 'em, but...
...at least where I live, they're mostly on vacant lots or other public property. That probably indicates money and an aggressive campaign but doesn't equate to popular support.

7. Seen quit a few on highways around Southern and Central ILL.
He must have a dedicated crew setting them up. I have noticed this because it seems well before the election.

The signs do seem to be along the roadside and vacant areas as someone has already mentioned.
