Save the Planet (And Your Money): Go Electronic.
By Bocotton Stormfield

Political hacks will tell you that signs are really important (think 35% markup!) But they’re dead wrong! A sign in a vacant lot or at an intersection doesn’t mean a thing. It is just visual (and actual) pollution. People hate this stuff. DON”T DO IT! These signs don’t convince anybody of anything except that you are just another wasteful political fool. Don’t clutter up the highways and intersections of your beautiful state. Don’t waste precious gas and oil running up and down the road trying to win a sign war. Be cool. Take the environmental high road. Go electronic.

Lose The Sign War. Win the Election.

All of the thousands of plastic and paper signs nailed on trees and plastered all up and down the public highways aren’t worth a pinch of warm puppy poop. Signs and billboards enrage environmentally conscious voters and they don’t really help because they don’t say anything. Do you really think people are going to vote for you, simply because they read you name on a sign over, and over, and over again?

Think about all of the gas and oil that will be burned this election year running up and down the highways trying to win the sign wars. It’s a complete waste of time and money. Everybody is totally disgusted with this insult-your-intelligence visual blight. So why do it? Go ahead. Lose the sign war on purpose and shame your opponent for wastefulness. If you are courageous enough to buck this tired old hacksaw, you will attract more favorable publicity than you can imagine.

Yard Signs: The Bee’s Knees.

The only sign worth putting up is a YARD SIGN. These are great, because these are unmistakable expressions of individual support. When somebody sticks a yard sign in their Azalea bed, they are pretty much telling the world that they are going to vote for you. That’s a good thing. A bumper sticker or a poster in a shop window can be very effective for the same reason. Yard Signs GOOD. Road signs, BAD. Yard signs, GOOD. Intersection signs, BAD. Got it kids? Straight ahead.
