So I was driving to work early this morning, a bit tired really, down I-75 toward Cincinnati. All of a sudden I hear a car beeping their horn to the left of me and it's some older white guy smiling and pumping his fist as he passes me. I realized he had an Obama bumper sticker as he passed, and waved at him and gave him a fist bump back (he must've seen my own bumper sticker). To say the least, it made me happy to see a fellow Dem with so much passion about their support of the Democratic ticket this November.

Also, I always look for bumper stickers of cars on the highway, and can report that I saw 7 Obama stickers and NO McCain stickers today. In fact, I haven't seen one yet, and this is with me living in the Cincinnati metro area!

Other than one crazy black woman uptown with Obama stickers all over her Cadillac, I haven't seen "ANY", either way, yet.

Living hear in the People's Republic of Maryland, I see Obama stickers at probably a 6 to 1 clip to Nobama or McCain stickers.  (Just a guess but it seems about right)

My reaction?  Let out a good Nelson laugh and continue on my way.

I opt not to muck up my bumper with stickers of any sort, much less political ones.

I even made the dealer remove the dealer sticker when I bought my last car.

I'm willing to bet I ain't the only one that feels that way.

Driving ? Who can afford gas, or even a car in this horrible * economy. FAIL 1
To Work ? The welfare office isn't "work". FAIL 2
Early this morning ? If your lazy ass was out of bed before 0800, I'll eat my boots. FAIL 3.

To tell the truth, I haven't seen many hussein NOR McCain stickers.

The only hussien stickers I have seen are on vehicles with stupid lefty stickers suggesting that killing babies is OK and the like.

The stickers will come out after the conventions. 

I was really moved by McCain last Saturday -- I still don't think he has Conservative principles, but I think he has a Conservative Heart. 

I will put his stickers up as soon as they are available.

Id say I actually see more Ron Paul stickers than anyone else. The number two spot goes to Hillary campaign paraphernalia.

Oddly, here in the "south", I have yet to see one Obama sticker on a car driven by anyone other than a white person.

And on a related note, my husband stopped on the highway a few weeks ago because he saw a car had run off into the woods.  He found that it was driven by a very elderly, confused old lady, and there was an Obama sticker on her bumper.  He and some other bystanders made sure she was OK and help was on the way..... I couldn't help but think what one of the DUmmies would have done in the same situation and the sticker had been "McCain".  Would the old broad have gotten off with just a lecture on the evils of the GOP, or would she have been set on fire?  One wonders....
