Saw a Kerry/Edwards lawn sign in someone's yard today.
Had to take my car to the dealership for repairs, so I was traveling a road I rarely take. Early in the AM, and I'm stuck in a long line of traffic, look over and there it was. Man that was a total shock.

4. Still see Bumper stickers, not too surprising in Mass & NH. But I haven't
seen a yard sign since November. It certainly made my morning better.

3. I left mine in my front yard until I moved last month.
I wanted everyone to know that it's not my fault!

5. I've seen one two days in a row
and one of them was the old "Kerry for President" primary one. Wah hoot.

11.  i saw that post too

will try to find for you.

otherwise you might google ... ebay, or cafepress.

my daughter has one in her scrapbook that she is going to put back up.

of course i expect that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction and all those nasty W/C ones will come out in force!

7. There are still many in yards, in windows, on cars
in my neighborhood in Seattle. I see them and wish I had never removed the bumpersticker from my car. I keep on wearing my "Not Me!" wrist band like badge of honor.

10. Lucky you
I was out for a walk around the neighborhood and came to a house with a lawn sign that said "Approve President Bush's Nominees" - It was printed by some organization (I forget which one), not hand made.

I was afraid to walk past the house.

12. When I go for walks in my neighborhood, one house has a HUGE
"Support the Troops" banner on one side of the yard and a Kerry/Edwards sign on the other side.

I also always walk by a van with a bumper sticker - "Unions - the people that brought you the weekend" (paraphrase).

I usually walk by another SUV that has a "Fearful people do stupid things" bumper sticker. They have just added "49% of Americans agree
with 99% of the world".

When I was at the Kerry Campaign headquarters a state rep asked me where I lived and when I told her she kind of brushed it off and said "we don't do very well in that precinct".

I also have a neighbor a few houses down that has blue lights in their outside porch lights.

It makes me :) while I walk.

14. I still see them here in Portland.
An older lady across the street (she's in her 70s) kept one up for MONTHS after the election. She even re-landscaped her yard and put it back up!
