Politics invading the ball drop

I was watching the ball drop and our local ABC channel would go to the local anchors in Buffalo at the ball drop there and right behind them were several Ron Paul signs. They kept shouting Ron Paul for President. I am sorry. I thought this was a New Year celebration. GRR!! So I switched the station. And I would switch back later hoping for the national NYC coverage and there would be the local anchors with Ron Paul signs in the background.

I appreciate people are excited about the elections coming up.... But how many months do we have left before the elections?? Before the primaries even get to this state? I can't even enjoy a ball drop without these clowns.

OK. I am done.

Paul's supporters are the most fervent and vocal supporters of any candidate.

I've seen plenty of bumper stickers, yard signs, etc. for other candidates in my life. I've never seen anyone carrying signs down a sidewalk, excepting Paul supporters.

I've never seen any other candidate's stickers on street signs, etc.

I love when one put a sticker on a stop sign right under the stop.
