I didn't see any yard signs out for OmahaSteve in ward 1. I travelled along Mission Ave to get to Offutt AFB. There were plenty of signs for other candidates but none for him.
They're still at Goldenrod Printing down in Lincoln.
His Democrat-union buddy who owns the business is holding them "cash on delivery," or payment upon delivery, or something like that.
The big guy misunderestimated how many bucks would flow in from other pockets.
I think that was a mistake last autumn, when the big guy and Marta bought that supersized superdeluxe television set, which probably would cover at least a part of the printing expenses.
The big guy had already decided to run when that purchase was made.
I can still see it; Marta reminding him, "But dear, we have to save money for your campaign--remember, nobody's going to invest in you until you invest in yourself first."
And then the big guy; "Not to worry, dear; my 100,000 friends on Skins's island will pay the printing bill."
I expect the campaign signs the morning of May 16 are headed to the recycle bin.
