Anyone still have their Kerry bumper sticker on their car?
I still do. I can't bring myself to take it off yet. It seems so final.

4. Mine is staying ...
with a black ribbon magnet. I thought of coloring the yellow one I have, but it should stay ... so I'm going to alter a POW ribbon.

5. I'll admit that I took mine off.
Mostly due to the fear that some conservative a**hole would say something that would make me want to punch him in the mouth.

9. It's a valid fear.
I often think the fact that I have a Whinnie the Pooh sunshade in the window by the baby seat stops would be vandals in their tracks. How can you key a car or slash tires with Pooh smiling and waving at you cheerfully?

7. Yep!!
I was going to take it off on Wednesday, when I was feeling very sad. But then I saw what the Bush supporters were doing to the signs, etc in our area and I leave it on now in defiance.

It will come off one day, but that's mainly because I love bumper stickers and want another one.

8. Yep - not taking it off until all the votes are counted and the EC has
declared.
Then I am going to get one that says fraWd (source DUer MagicSpork).

10. A friend gave me one that says F the president.
The same style as W the president. I'm probably not going to put that one on though I could for another four years now if I wanted to.

12. None of my neighbors have even removed signs from their lawns.
Of course the bumper stickers still abound.

13. Absolutely, and I still go out with my Kerry/Edwards button
This ain't over yet.

Anyway, I'll never take off the bumper sticker. People are going to know where I stand. And I'll put a sticker next to it: "Don't blame me, I voted for the smart one."

14. I removed mine on Wednesday morning.
I knew the bush cronies were in the process of stealing it from Kerry. But I put my DemocraticUnderground.com sticker in it's place.

18. Mine's not coming off ever
I told my husband, the day after the "election," to leave it be. The fact that he agreed is a sign of his understanding of how upset I am.

23. I've decided to leave it.
With Black Box Voting coming to light, it may very well prove to be relevant yet.

Hell, I left my "Re-Elect Gore in 2004" sticker on for about a year after he said he wasn't running, and my Howard Dean For America sticker on until June when I replaced it with Kerry.

24. I will probably leave it
Ive already been getting a rather large amount of acorn. Just this morning going to work I had some freeper pull up next to me, pointing at my full window "I Voted For Kerry/Edwards" sign and laughing hysterically. I won't give in though.

25. I only had mine on for about three weeks
Back at the end of Sept, beginning of October.

Then, I got keyed several times, got the sticker scratched, and had my grille smashed. Plus, I had been cut off, tailgated, and merged into more than normal.

So, I figured, I respect my car too much, and I just don't think its a good idea to advertise that I am a liberal while on the road or on my unattended property.

26. I still have mine on. I think I will replace with an anti-shrub one soon.
While walking around town yesterday, I noticed someone with a Gore Lieberman sticker still on which made me smile. Then I noticed a rusty ole pick up with a "Clinton Gone in Four" sticker. :eyes:

32. Mine's still on along with my
yellow ribbon and my "I don't have to like Bush to love my country one." Though I'm thinking I'll use a marker and write in HALF my county. :)

33. Mine is staying on, I want people to know
that I don't support that Killer of the Poor in the White House.
I took the yard sign down today though. I had put it on the border between my repug Landlords property and city property just so I could get away with it for awhile.

34. I Only Removed My Gore-Lieberman Sticker To Replace It With Kerry's
And (unless I get a new car) I'll leave Kerry's on there and replace it with Clarke's or Clinton's (or whomever's).

37. I know. I want to still show my support-he's my president
and I still have my signs in my window, and my vm greeting: "You have reached your local Kerry suppporter, and I approved this message. Please leave a brief message and contact you upon approval". My mom left me a vm yesterday, and in an irritated voice said "you need to change your message" whoa-not so fast mom! I am still a Kerry supporter, and * is not my president, or anyone's technically. maybe I should change my greeting to "You have reached your local voting fraud expose activist." or "Don't blame me, I voted for Kerry"

I was going to take it off because I couldn't bear the thought of the laughing bushbots, but I decided against that. I'm proud of my vote for John Kerry. The sticker stays.

49. I'm st ill wearing my Kerry button...
I want all to know I am not complicit in what happens the next four years.

Don't blame me, I voted for Kerry.

I also use public transit and am often the only white person on the bus. I wear my Kerry button as a means of letting others know that not all whites are Bushies.

50. Kerry bumper stickers
You still see FAR more Kerry-Edwards bumpers stickers than Bush-Cheney stickers in these parts.
