I see the occasional obama/biden bumper sticker....but nowhere near the number we saw in 2008.

Seeing a lot more Romney bumper stickers than I would expect for this area.

no yard signs for either side yet.

We've been on the road for a week and have seen more Romney bumper stickers than O stickers (you have to take into account that we are traveling in western states.............Id, Mt, Wy, Colo which tend to be more conservative), but we haven't seen a lot of political bumper stickers in general anywhere we've traveled.

One thing we have noticed is that in each of the states we've traveled through we've seen very large Romney/Ryan signs along highways (30" X 48") that are state specific. Romney/Ryan Washington, Romeny/Ryan Idaho, Romney/Ryan Montana, Romney/Ryan Wyoming, and Romney/Ryan Colorado. We're going to be in Az next week and will be on the lookout for Romney/Ryan Arizona road signs.

We may also be traveling through Cali and Ore on our way back home (depending on snow conditions in Yellowstone) and will look for this type of signage in those states too.

I'm sure (hoping) these signs are being or have already been erected in each state in the nation.

We think this is a great marketing strategy.
