Finally saw a Kerry/Edwards bumper sticker.
I live in this red state of Georgia in the Atlanta metro area and all I have seen are Bush/Cheney stickers. I thought I was the only one with an anti-Bush bumper sticker. I happened to be behind a car today on my way home from work and its sticker read John Kerry. Defeat Bush. I hope to see more soon.

1. Hmmm...
Glad to hear the good news. I have seen more Shrub stickers these past few days. Let's hope things improve for me.

2. I saw no less than SEVEN K-E stickers today! (0 stickers for Chimpo)
In upstate NY, not a liberal bastion by any means!

Maybe the tide is turning in your neck of the woods.

5. I was in Marietta on South Cobb Drive
on my way home from work. I live in Woodstock, but haven't seen any bumper stickers for either candidates up here yet.

13. Right. Cobb County is the heart of Repug county.
Edited on Fri Jul-16-04 06:18 PM by RebelOne
I live in Cherokee County, which I think is also Repub country, though I do know a few up here who would vote for anybody but Bush. I am trying hard to convert the rest.

8. That's a good sign.
Many Republicans are simply unhappy with Bush.

7. I see sh*tloads of them here in Atlanta.
I live in North Dekalb. Kerry stickers outnumber Bush 50 to 1.

I made my own Kerry/Edwards Sticker and replaced my Kerry sticker on my car twenty minutes after Kerry announced Edwards.

I've ordered a hundred official stickers to hand out to friends and family.

16. I live in Tucker
and there are more and more Dem. yard signs than in the 20 years I've lived here. Very encouraging.

9. I am seeing more and more of them but haven't as yet seen a single
Bush*/Cheney one. The one thing I've noticed about the Kerry stickers is they all have Kerry's web address big enough to see. I am becoming more and more optimistic as each day passes.

10. I'm always surprised when I happen to see a Bush-Cheney sticker
Where I live (in Portland), I rarely see them.

19. Me too.
It takes me aback. Like, how DARE you live here, stupid asshole! Be gone!

I was in a Target just outside of Portland and there were three K-E stickers plus my No-W sticker in half of the parking lot that I saw. On the way home saw one B-C and one K-E, so we are definitely running well ahead here in Portland's immediate inner burb areas if you go by stickers.

12. Hardly any stickers here in AR
I have mine, and I saw a Kerry/Edwards sticker on a car with several others for local candidates. I've seen one van with Shrub stickers, and that's all so far. My husband feels that it is strange that there are so few stickers on cars now.

14. Keep a supply of them in your glove box
Be ready if someone says, "Cool sticker. Where can I get one?" With a big smile, you reach over and produce one like a rabbit from a hat.

17. Good idea, but I am going to have to order
a shitload of them from MoveOn.org. That's the one I have. It reads Mission Accomplished with mission crossed out and Nothing over it, which reads Nothing Accomplished. And under that it says "Defeat Bush in '04. Guess I'll have to order a bunch of those.

15. I live in the same area, but
I've been very encouraged by the number of Kerry and now Kerry/Edwards stickers I've seen. And have seen hardly any Bush-Cheney. And there are more Dem. yard signs in my area than in previous years. I've been happily surprised.

24. I think Bush/Cheney supporters are being driven into the closet
They are rightly ashamed of themselves.

23. I passed out a bunch of KE stickers on Portland, OR #8 bus
the other night.

People were really enthusiastic about getting them.
