I live in a safe Republican area, so I see a large numbers of McCain/Palin signs.I like seeing Obama signs, even though I won't be voting for him.Main reasons I like seeing signs for BOTH parties:- It makes me proud to be an American.- I'm thankful we have a choice of parties.- It is great that our system handles party differences without intimidation and violence.What is disturbing is that some people are so wrapped up in this, they can't even deal with seeing opposing signs.It's just a sign people. You should be proud that you have a choice, not upset about that choice.It isn't like it is going to change you vote.

Operators of neighborhood e-mail group lists cried foul to their memberships. The NAACP logged calls. Community leaders demanded boycotts of the hotel, a common venue for Democratic events."All this over a campaign sign.
