Quote:Last weekend my wife and I drove down to Ocala to buy a cat (I know it sucks, but happy wife = happy life).  My wife commented that she didn't see a single Hillary yard sign nor did we see one single "Hillary"  bumper sticker.

 

We saw a lot of Trump signs in yards, though tolerant liberals seem to think they need to be taken down.

 

It got me thinking a bit today on my drive in to work.  I kept a tally and the results pretty much mirror the poll on this MB.  I saw exactly 9 bumper stickers for Trump, 0 Hillary stickers and 1 0bama sticker.  I counted 8 Trump signs in my neighborhood as I left and 0 Hillary signs.

 

My guess is that liberals aren't really enthused about their candidate whereas the trumpettes have their minons fired up.

 

I don't know how the rest of the country is at this point, but in NE Florida it's looking like a Trump win in a landslide.

You'll hear similar reports from around the country.  I've got friends in Michigan who have said the same thing.  You'll see the occasional Hillary sign, but Trump outnumbers them exponentially.

 

Another friend in North Carolina has indicated the same thing. 

 

In my own area, there are 2 Hillary signs, and one of them is in the yard of a house that's been in foreclosure and is bank owned for over a year.  Conveniently, the other sign is next door, and the person who lives there is an active member of the Florida Democratic Party. 

 

I was at our neighborhood Ace Hardware on Monday.  I know the guy who runs the place.  He's a retired cop.  He was talking to a guy who was getting an order from him.  Turns out, it was someone from the local Trump office.  Apparently, the manager puts Trump signs in front of his store every day, and by the next morning, they're gone or destroyed.  Rather than complain, he just puts more out.  The local campaign office brings him signs twice a week.   Other businesses around theirs also do the same thing. 

 

My neighbor across the cul de sac has had a Trump sign in his yard for over a year.  It started out closer to the curb, but someone kept coming into the area and taking his signs, so now he's got it up by the house, and hasn't had an issue in 6 months. 

 

I've seen more O' and Joe, or Obama Biden stickers in the area than Hillary this election cycle.  There's almost no enthusiasm for her candidacy aside from those who have invested heavily in buying access to her presidency. 

 

Obama comes to town yesterday to give a speech on her behalf at UNF, mentions himself almost 100 times while bringing her up less than a dozen.  The crowd there was excited to see him.  Not so much about Hillary.

 

Meanwhile, on the same day, Trump holds a rally at the equestrian center on the far west side of town, draws a crowd of thousands, and they were really amped up.
