I actually saw a Hillary bumper sticker for the first time the other day...


...it was on a silver Mercedes Benz, in one of the richest towns in New York state.

Of course it's yet another piece of dreaded "anecdotal" evidence, but I think it speaks volumes.

But it's early yet.

I HAVE seen a couple of Bernie bumper stickers, though, besides mine.

Hillary stickers are roughly equal in number to the W. '04 stickers I see on some of the old pick up trucks in the area.

It would seem that they are roughly equal in relevance also.

I myself drive a silver Mercedes Benz and drive to work in a very, very upscale part of town. I haven't put a bumper sticker in the window yet (would never put one on the paint!!!) but I will when the Democratic nominee is chosen. The Mercedes is a 1998 with 149K miles. I bought it used in 2006 when it had 13K miles on it and paid 12K for it. Its my daily driver. I could not have bought this car new. Point is you don't really know the circumstances without personally knowing the owner.
