Ha! That's awesome! - Aaron Krug
I love it! - David Price
dope. I like the eyesore approach. You steal my sign = Opportunity to illustrate my logic and skeelz. That's frankly what I'd do. - Marko Bon
win win - Melissa
Keeps stealing? They stole more then one sign? I couldn't find anything about their being repetitive thefts of their signage. Either way, it's sad that people have resorted to stealing political signs in this campaign. In the absence of real political discourse, I guess the only thing left to do is commit petty theft. - Jason Shultz
Shows how desperate the McCain supporters are. - Jeff P. Henderson
LOL - Shawn Farner
An excellent deterrent to prevent Obama-dislikers from stealing signs, but what if an Obama supporter steals the sign so the supporter can have his own sign for free? The campaign gets more money, which is the thief's intention, but the money does not come out of the thief's pocket. - possible248
That is a great pic! - Kipp Bodnar
wait... you have to buy those signs? i'm pretty sure up here they put them on your lawn for free... lol - Joshua Schnell
I'm so amused at how popular this post is. - Jason Toney
JT: FF is clearly crowded with Obama supporters. :) - Melissa
Oh this is pristine comedy. Pristine. - RPM
You are correct Joshua, let's hope the political parties in Canada don't figure this one out. - Kenton
*steals the entire lot* - Mo Kargas
[love] - Carmen
I would go without the eyesore ... now it just looks tacky. Now they are just asking for more attention. I don't put political signs on my car simply because I don't want any problems. I don't think a sign is going to change anyone's mind... Major props to the design team for all the awesome looking collateral they created, though. - Brandon
This is hilarious - Nicholas Kreidberg
Ha! I've considered doing a few things to some rather prominent McCain signs but the fact that I'm not evil prevents it. - Lindsey
I've been tempted to throw Obama stickers over the McCain signs here in Florida, but passed. I just flip them off instead. - ::Kristen::
Must be nice to be on the left, where the worst that happens is the sign gets stolen. In Democrat neighborhoods in Oregon, McCain signs get firebombed. http://twurl.cc/5wk - Rob Sterling
I need to do that when I replace my stolen sign. Glad I took a picture, 'cause it's lasting longer. - Erica Mauter
Rob - you forgot about the dude that got shot for wearing an Obama shirt. :P :D - Tad, TV's Patrick Duffy
hell yes! A slightly tidier version of this needs to go in my mom's front yard. They (whoever "they" are) stole her sign, too. - Kamilah Gill
They had to buy the sign? I thought they gave them away for people to put up. - Victor Ryden
stupid idea - YAAK
The only problem? Obama campaign takes a loss on every sign they sell. Thief still wins. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
Loved it, until I read Mark's comment. - Toby Graham
Classic! Of course, the net signage is now bigger. Thus the total cost per square inch has been reduced. Plus it's getting page views here, so it must also be getting some extra eyeballs in the 3D world. - Mike Reynolds
@Tad: The guy who got "shot" for wearing an Obama shirt was in Great Britain, not America, and he got "shot" with a BB gun. So I don't think that counts. - Rob Sterling
I had my Obama sign replaced by a McCain sign. I should have done something similar... Maybe i will now ;) - Ari Milner
Rob, n=1 on that McCain sign. It's odious, but its hardly a trend. As for the guy shot in Britan, yeah, it was a "bb gun" but it was still a violent assault, and a lot of bb guns are powerful enough to be lethal. Yes though, n=1 and it was in Britan. - Erik S
