Moved the Obama/ Biden yard sign.

[Condem]

From the front lawn to the front (street level) window. Until Inauguration Day. Then, I'll frame that fucker!!!

[wellstone dem]

1. oooh, good idea.

[Condem]

3. Hey, wellstone

Thank you. For your work. Well done, sir.

[wellstone dem]

13. Did my best, lost Tinklenbert (though he took my county) and still

got fingers crossed on Franken. It was worth all the work.

[Condem]

14. I'm still shocked at that loss.

Wha'appen???

[wellstone dem]

15. my summary

hat a wonderful and, at the same time, tough night for us here in the 6th District. Barack Obama won, but then Michelle Bachmann won her election.

Tinklenberg did out perform the previous election. In that contest, also a 3 way race, Bachmann got more than 50% of the vote, she beat the combined total of the other two candidates by about 600 votes. In this race, she got 46%. Unfortunately, although Tinklenberg had got the endorsement of the Minnesota Independent Party, there was someone who ran as the independence candidate. The combined total of the two candidates beat Bachmann by about 30,000 votes.

This race was a long shot in this district from the start. Unfortunately, the party did not originally see the race as winnable, and so didn't put money into the district until near the end of the race. If that money had come in sooner, then combined with the amazing support that came from people around the country, it might have been enough.

Thank you all so much for helping to support our fight. I can not begin to tell you that along with the welcome cash, your donations brought new spirit, new energy, and new volunteers to the campaign. Thank you so much. I will tell you that your money was not wasted. I and many others worked so hard to earn the support you gave us. I am not one bit sorry for the hours spent walking in parades, doorknocking, and phone calling, or the money I contributed. I am proud to say, that Tinklenberg carried my county by 3400 votes. (McCain carried the county by 5500 votes, so Tinklenberg outperformed Obama in this county by nearly 9,000 votes.)

And although I'm still represented by Michele Bachmann, now I'm also represented by Barack Obama. What a wonderful world, what a wonderful day.

[Condem]

16. Amen.

[onehandle]

2. Took ours down.

Left the Martin sign up. Hopefully Obama will come to Georgia and help us out.

[yeswecanandwedid]

17. I took mine down as well. My neighbors (McCain supporters) took theirs down yesterday.

It felt respectful to the country as a whole.

[DCBob]

4. Ours and the neighbors are all still up.

Framing is a great idea!

[rufus dog]

5. took mine down election night and

hung up a 3'x 5" flag!

[Arctic Dave]

6. Already have my "Hope" sign framed.

One day, I will be lucky enough to have it signed by The Big O. :D

[midnight]

7. Than's a good idea.

[rurallib]

8. Picked up signs yesterday. After a couple requests, just decided to leave

the Obama signs as souveniers.

[Condem]

11. How are ya, rural?

I haven't looked at the numbers, but I suppose West Liberty went to the President-elect.

[madmom]

9. Mines still up, but the day bush was selected I removed my American flag, today

I rehung it! It felt SOOOOOOOOOOOO goood!

[Lefta Dissenter]

10. Yesterday I took my Obama/Biden signs down

and put up "Thank You America" in their places - with Obama-esque "O"s in the word "You." What would have felt disingenuous and corny a week ago felt just right after Tuesday night.:patriot:

edited to add that as I was walking up the driveway with my Obama signs, a guy who lives down the road with whom we've had some disagreements, drove past, and honked, waved and smiled... AND, another friend came over to visit today, and gave me a gift that he described as "something to wrap fish in." Of course, it was a mccain/p sign - one that had been left in a road right-of-way, so he removed it (in the interest of helping to preserve the town road-side mowers).

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

12. I was taking down my yards signs yesterday, and had

The Excell Energy guy, who was working on my street, ask me to please let "That One" stand awhile more?! Ya Ya, Obama stays alittle bit more.

Jan. 20th right?

[KathieG]

18. Mine was stolen yesterday!

:mad:

Oh well...at least they waited until after the election.

[JaneQPublic]

19. Save them for 2012.

Most sign designs don't have "2008" so we can save them and use them again in 4 years.
