I saw a Bush bumpersticker on a really slow car on the highway
Real slow. Like, going 40 in a 70 zone slow. Holding up traffic slow. And when I did get to pass, it was driven by a youngish woman, and not an old man in a hat, like I expected.

I guess it only makes sense that she would be holding up traffic. Being a Bush supporter, she's been holding up the entire nation.

2. I haven't seen a Bush sticker around here in ages,
but Kerry stickers are everywhere. I don't think anybody took them off their cars, and I even wonder whether people put on new ones after the election. Today I saw one that said: "Had enough? Vote Democratic '06."

3. I saw one yesterday that said,"Enough is Enough. Vote Democratic"
They had another one that had a white background and very small letters.
Still wish I could have read that one. :)

4. My dear EstimatedProphet!
You're in Cleveland, right?

I thought it was a Dem stronghold.....maybe not!

I still see a few such bumperstickers out here.....:shrug:

They must be part of the 32% who still support *!

Nice to see you tonight!

:hi:

5. Actually, we're in the country around Cleveland
And it is fanatically religious here. Our first Air America station was literally seized by fundies who refused to leave the broadcast booth. They claimed they had a right to take over the station because they were Christian.

6. I've seen a big drop in the W stickers
but we are majority Democrat in these neck of the woods.

I've been tempted when I do see one to ask them why they still support the village idiot.

14. sometimes I wonder about my bumperstickers
being a slow driver I probably make other drivers angry. So if I have a sticker for candidate X, I wonder if they won't get angry at candidate X too and vote against him/her just because one of their supporters ticked them off.

But I usually hold up traffic by driving a mere five mph over the posted speed limit.

18. I saw a Viva Bush sticker on a Navigator this morning...
right next to the For Sale sign. That gave me a chuckle. They I saw the "Boycott France" bumpersticker. Guess he can't afford the guzzler anymore, but he's still drinking the KoolAid.

21. I saw a car for sale with a bumpersticker like that...
I called the number on the sign and told the seller that I like the car, but they need to take off the bumpersickers before I'd consider making an offer.

he took my number and said..."I'll give you a call back" yeah, right.

19. A Bush supporter who is a little slow
That about sums the remaining 29% up pretty accurately.
