Are Any Of You Giving Out Candy To Trick-or-Treaters?

[Dinger]

If you are, do you have your Obama/Biden (& Other Dem) signs up? I live in a small northern Wisconsin town. Someone cleaned out our signs last week Sunday, during church. I kind of think its a repuke who was sick of all the Obam/Biden signs. My town is a little democratic island in a pretty red county. I figure it's someone who knows the habits of the locals. Anyway, I was able to get more Obama/Biden signs (& as well as Democratic state & congressional ones), and all were replaced, with more if needed. We are all counting on them disappearing, especially tonight. I'm taking mine in when Trick-or-Treat is over. I just wanted to make sure they were out, just for the exposure, with kids being out with their families. Anyway, Dems in Eland, Wisconsin are pissed, and we're watching! My husband has a game camera (a good one) set up, and if they try, there's be pictures! Just sayin'.

i have on sign free window and that's where they're going.

[Dinger]

2. I took my signs down tonight, they'll be back up in the morning

[ailsagirl]

3. Honestly... the repugs are pathetic. Like little kids throwing a tantrum

Hope your sign is safe this time around!!

[Ian David]

4. Sure do! One little girl said, "Thank you for voting for Obama!"

[Dinger]

6. Awwwwwwww

Love your signs!

[vanderBeth]

10. Awwwwww :)))))

7. I've just pulled mine up. I don't want kids blundering over them in the dark

or other people messing with them later on. I'll plant 'em again first thing in the morning.

[ThatsMyBarack]

8. I am, and

EDIT: The lights just went on, so my Obama sign shows up better! :patriot:

[seabeyond]

9. we get lots of trickers. i pulled signs just not at side of house, cant see and

put them in front by porch. i have four out here now, lol. amongst the graveyard. but i am pulling them in tonight too.

wedn went to the two headquarters and lots of bumperstickers and yard signs. went in today and all OUT both places. i really wanted some stickers. a couple kids in son schooled ask for them.

11. new neighbors

don't really know them at all but went there with the kids. They have Obama pumpkins carved in front!! We're going to be good neighbors, hurrah! I wore my Vote Obama t-shirt and got lots of nods and smiles.

12. My signs are inside the window, visible to trick or treaters, but can't steal them . nt

[mtnsnake]

13. Funny you say that. Just after dark I took down my Obama sign for 2 reasons

I didn't want it stolen and I was worried some kid my trip over it while cutting through the yard to get to our door. Can't wait to put it back up in the morning.

[daninthemoon]

14. Signs are up. and our candy treats are in bags with literature about

our state senate nominee.

[Phx_Dem]

15. If there's any left when I'm done with it.

LOl Just kidding. I don't have a yard sign, but my garage door is open enough to see my bumper sticker. My neighbors have been looking at it for months now so it's nothing new. I'm in a Republican neighborhood -- Shadegg is our rep. I know. Puke.

[BeatleBoot]

16. It is a ritual here to pass out candy

and I decided a long time ago (15 years ago) to yank the Yard Signs for one evening.

I like to de-politicize Halloween.

It's an american tradition, and I think it transcends politics for one night.

Let the kids have fun.

You should have seen the twins a few moments ago dressed up like the guy from the Lucky Charms cereal box.

17. We kinda do trick or treating differently.

My hubby is the principal of the elementary school less than half a mile away from our house. Some people already know where we live, but we're not keen on EVERYONE knowing where the principal lives....also, we have a very old Old English sheepdog with hip and leg problems and he just goes berserk and usually strains and hurts himself. So.....we put out a chair with a bowl of candy and a sign saying "Old doggy, please don't knock or ring doorbell...take a couple pieces of candy and have a safe Halloween". Then, hubby and I hide out upstairs with our favorite naughty snacks, drinking beer and watching movies.

We don't have kids so we never have to deal with costumes or taking them trick or treating.

18. ok i just took my signs out of the lawn and my neighbors says "Change your mind?"

"Yes of course, i now oppose gay people having constitutional rights and i'm voting for more war, Bigotry/senseless killing 08!" and with that my spineless neighbor scurried into her filthy house.

And hell yes i'm fun at parties.

[mtnsnake]

19. LOL

Good one!

[AlCzervik]

20. oh yeah, it ain't easy being one of the only 2 democratic houses on the street.

but fuck them because i was here first.

[greenbriar]

21. got my sign out and my Obama shirt on!

wish I had bought the Obama Mask

[grannylib]

22. Yeppers, and I have the following in my yard:

Two Obama/Biden signs
Two Tim Walz signs (Congressman, First District, Minnesota)
Two Al Franken signs
One John Brandstad (running against a local gun nut wacko in a local race for state congresscritter)

And my punkin is below!

[libnnc]

23. I put my sign up but I'm wearing my Obama/Biden Fleece

:D

[buzzard]

24. I am and we have already had a few Obama kiddies they were so cute.n/t

[trayfoot]

25. You betcha.....our signs are up!

[CitizenPatriot]

26. we are giving out candy in a red state

and our second OBAMA BIDEN sign is out front, PROUDLY.

We already had to replace it once. If they steal it again, we'll buy another one.

I love that their kids have to come here and walk past that sign to get candy. What are they going to say to their kids, that they can't come to this house because muslins live there? ha ha! bring it!

plus, our sign drives our neighbors crazy. One of them is parent of horrible, racist Puke senator. Every day, our sign is out there...ha ha!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

and PS I am dressed like bloody Palin:-) Trick or treat, Pukes.

[wellstone dem]

27. Well, none of the kids said anything but I have to believe

that the 8 African-American kids who came to my door (with 3 parents watching across the street) knew that this house in a largely white community was safe to come to because of my Obama sign. And when I was waiting to get to my car at the grocery store as an African American man was pulling out, he gave me a big smile and waved me past, and gave me a thumbs up pointing at my Obama sticker. I feel like we are coming together. It feels so good.

[Danmel]

28. We took ours down

I'll put it back tomorrow-

I dont want it stolen, shaving creamed, the house egged or anything like that.

Tomorrow is another day

[MI4Obama]

29. Ours was up

now we don't have one. Anybody now if I can still go to a campaign office and buy them? My polling place is on my street (just far enough away for me to have my signs up) and I'd like to pick up 2 more for Tuesday.

[Lerrad]

30. We sure are...

It was a very nice evening here in Ohio for handing out goodies, and man did we hand them out. (Had tons of full size candy bars, gum, Altoid Tins etc that were given to us, we were the hero's of our neighborhood!)

We had two Obama signs up, and sat in the drive way with our Obama shirts, and buttons. There are only two other Obama signs up in our neighborhood besides ours, and we got positive feed back from the kids as well as the adults all evening long. It was fun!

Go Obama!

[Awsi Dooger]

31. Plenty of candy, no signs

I bought Snickers, Butterfinger, Reese's and Baby Ruth.

The key is to make sure it's something you like, in case of leftovers. :)
