Have you seen a Ronmey/Ryan bumper sticker?

that it was because he wasnt the "official" nominee until a few days ago. I live in Ron Paul's home district so I still see more of those than anything

Our local wingers are certain that neither Romney nor Ryan is black.

Three weeks ago I drove from KCMO to Minneapolis to visit friends, then to the Quad-Cities (IA-IL) to visit family and then back to KCMO.
I saw DOZENS of Obama bumper stickers - but NOT ONE Rmoney one.

I'm even seeing "Trickle Up Poverty" bumper stickers, always by some asshole driving a massive SUV.

The other day I was behind a Papa John's delivery guy in a beat-to-shit Saturn. He had Romney and Nobama stickers, plus one about taking away his guns. Poor baby!

NE corner of Florida -- VERY red area -- and I haven't seen a single Romney or Romney/Ryan sticker. See a few Obama ones (always warms my heart -- even happened to pull in behind & then walk into my office building with a woman who had one on her car. I told her she was brave. She chuckled & said that every drive across town was an adventure -- lots of honks, curses, flying fingers, etc.).

I still see a lot of Bush/Cheney and W'04 stickers. Just makes me shake my head sadly. How can anyone possibly be proud enough of that travesty to still display support?

It was on a big ol' Suburban. Saw it in Red Wing, MN a couple of weeks ago. Haven't seen any others yet, though I've seen many, many Obama stickers. But then, I live in the People's Republic of Minneapolis so no surprise there.

But no bumper stickers yet (Philly suburbs). More Ron Paul and leftover McCain stickers and plenty of anti-Obama. A fair number of Obama 2012 like my car.

32. I understand that instead of yard signs they are flying American Flags in front of their homes.

There have always been flags flown but notice if there seems to be a major increase in the homes in your community. This is not only on holidays. Just telling you what I heard.

I'm visiting family and friends on the Eastern Shore of Maryland (the red part of MD) - mainly Kent County - and I'm seeing lots and lots of Romney signs and large ones at that. I've been here almost a week and have only seen 2 Obama signs. As for the good news, I can watch TV and NOT be inundated with 4 or 5 campaigns ads in a row every commercial break like it is in Colorado. And the only ads I have seen are for or against another gambling casino.

And that wasn't even in my state. It was in Texas.

If there were lots of Romney stickers around here, I'd print up a bunch of stickers that say "I pay more taxes than" and put them over them.
