So an interesting comment made to my hubby on his way to get an Obama yard sign
OK yes we are late getting one... but we have always been procrastinators.... hell I didn't get my engagement ring until a few days after we were married (so don't take it as a sign of lack of support - just lazy support)

They recommended that we bring in our sign each night (and I said well ya, because as I have read on DU they are being stolen) well not just stolen, but burned

Nice racist touch there...

I have insomnia.... some night I am going to leave the sign out, sit in the dark with my baseball bat and wait for some bigoted asshole to take my sign

3. I've heard that coating the sign with Vaseline discourages theft
or, if you have a dog, perhaps it should start using the area around the sign for its trips outside. :evilgrin:

5. across the street, my ignorant GOP neighbor's Mccain, Coleman and
some guy running against Betty McCollum signs got stolen.
i DID NOT do it.

besides, I tthnk it might be them who took my "Bush Must Go" sign four years ago.
fortunately, I bought two so there was no interruption of service....

6. I live in the 'burbs and no one has touched my Obama sign...
there are also others in the neighborhood that have stayed in place.

Obama signs are slightly outnumbering McCain signs, at this point.
