Sunday we drove 406 miles and saw 1 Obama sign and 10 Rommney signs.
No bumper stickers for Obama and didn't count the Rommney stickers.
What are you seeing in your area?

BMTPoorly scraped off Obama stickers indicating buyer's remorse and most who'd have a (R) sticker of whatever still have their "We Stand With Scott Walker" stickers on. Some intel types might call that an indicator...
:cool:
Probably won't locally see a bunch of Romney/Ryan stuff. Many still remember it was Santorum that resonated up here. Support for Walker says what they need sayin'.
Honestly I haven't seen much of anything. 1-2 Obama signs and 1 of them was hand written.
There are not a lot of signs of any kind in my area, those that do have them the majority are Romney. Bumper stickers are a different story as I see quite a few for both candidates. Romney bumper stickers are found on a wide variety of vehicles, Obama's are most often seen (with my biased eyes) on VW Beetles, Mini's, Volts, Prius and Smart Cars.

Right now, about 50 - 50 here in Virginia. Drivers of Volvos and Toyota hybrids seem to have a lot of obama supporters. Some of those obama bumper stickers are pretty weather worn.

This sign, near my house, seems to have the added benefit of exterminating skunks;)

Not many signs in yards around here. No Obama supporters knocking on the doors this year. I see more Romney/Ryan bumper stickers than Obama.
My state traditionally leans Republican... 2008 was a shocker but again, the grassroot level of door to door that Obama's campaign did was unusual. Word is Indiana will not repeat 2008. Lord, I pray that is true...
Tons of obama signs here - mostly in the backround at homicide scenes, or at free cheese giveaways........

Poor skunk. Only had a few more months to go with this administration, but the stench was too much, even for him.....:D

Not seeing a ton of signs or commercials here in Mo. I think what is going on that both campaigns are going hard in the "swing" states, and both sides think Missouri is going to vote for Romney. Hopefully the lack of Romney signs is part of a strategy, and not a bad omen.
I am trying to get a 4'X8" sign, and can't get one found.
Not seeing very many signs in our area as compared to four years ago but are seeing more Romney signs than Obama signs. The congressional races seem to have more signs across the state mostly for the conservative candidates. The airwaves however are another story commercial after commercial, tit for tat. We are a swing state but I cannot be convinced that at this point in the race that the voters minds have not already been made up. It cannot be over soon enough for me, but the really bad news is that the 2016 crop of potential presidents is already testing the water.
Lots of Obama/Democrat T-Shirts down at both Food Lions I go to.
