Poll of lawn signs in State College shows McCain losing to everyone…
With the 2008 presidential campaign underway, State College McCain campaign supporters are facing an uphill climb to get their candidate recognized in Happy Valley.
In a recent poll of neighborhood candidate signs, Barrack Obama, Re/Max, and the State College Spikes have more signs up than McCain. McCain is currently running in fourth-place, tied with “Do Not Curb Your Dog” signs in the community.
Benji Vareswaldo, spokesperson for the State College Resident for McCain, said that he wasn’t concerned about the slim support for McCain.
“The one guy actually has two ‘curb your dog’ signs in front of his house,” Vareswaldo said. “So, that really doesn’t count.”
Once baseball season is over, a lot of the Fear the Deer signs will be taken down, he added. “I think that’s when you’ll see the people of State College really embrace the McCain campaign,” Vareswaldo said. “McCain campaign… Did I just rap? Pardon me.”
One anonymous McCain supporter explained why he would not place a sign in his front yard. “It’s not very cool,” the supporter said in a whisper. “I heard if you say your voting for McCain, they’ll won’t give you an extra shot of espresso in your double latte mocho latte at Starbucks, even when you specifically ask for an extra shot of espresso.”
This supporter admitted a sign in his lawn would open him up to further abuse, including snubs from his neighbors. “It’ll be like I’m from Philipsburg,” he added. “They treat me better than Jaypa… since he’s an Obama fan.”

Heck I’d rather put a sign in my yard declaring “Please Allow Your Dog To Poop Here” than put a McCain sign in my yard.
McCain’s got more flip flops than boardwalk store in Ocean City. I don’t know where he found his conservative side but he’s laying it on thick now. You’d swear him and Newt wrote the book of conservatism together the way he talks now.
Now he says builds a fence before he said them all in. Then he said no drilling off the coast now he says bring in the big drills. And on and on and on
The best flip flop is on the part of all the conservative republicans first they hate McCain now they love him.
Talk about a party of bigots and flip floppers!
