Don’t go after opposition yard signs!

Joe responded in a comment to the yard sign post that he is going to go after Obama signs. Don’t do it! The Mainstream Press will ignore the fact that McCain signs are down all over the country and focus on every single Obama yard sign that gets trashed. See also my post, “Cautionary note on yard sign revenge on this site. Hunting is not worth it.”
Just like the Mainstream Media focuses on every gaffe and negative issue regarding Republicans and gives Liberals a pass, we can expect a lot of negative publicity on revenge activity against yard signs. I know that it’s not fair. Turn your anger into something that really hurts the Democrats. Tell people the truth about their candidate and their agenda. Campaign against them. Like Heinlein said, “Of course the game is rigged. Don’t let that stop you-if you don’t play, you can’t win.”
Bring your signs in at night. Tell your friends and neighbors about the vandalism. Write a letter to your Newspaper. Call a talk show (while you still can). Contact a campaign or state party and volunteer to make phone calls, answer phones, go for pizza, drop literature, or stuff envelopes. You can volunteer day or night. Take out your outrage at the Democrats’ attempt to steal this election through intimidation and petty theft in ways that benefit the Republican Party.
Leave the other side’s signs alone. It doesn’t help. Tallyrand is reported to have said of an act of political violence, ”It was worse than a crime. It was a blunder.” We don’t want to make blunders. Campaign! Campaign! Campaign! Let’s beat the Democrat ground game. Leave their signs alone! Expose their lies!
