LONGWOOD, Fla. -- The home of a Central Florida Republican headquarters manager was shot up and damaged over his support of Sen. John McCain, the man told police.

Rog Coverely said several pellets pierced his Longwood home. Coverely showed several spiderwebbed-holes in the front windows of his home.

The Republican manager said he is convinced he was targeted because of new McCain signs he added around his home.

"All I can tell you is this, I have a very good relationship with my neighbors," Coverely said. "I mow my lawn. The only thing that has changed is I have two McCain signs in my front yard."

Coverely said he has taken about 300 calls concerning stolen or vandalized McCain signs in the area.

"It says this campaign is getting vicious," Coverely said.

Coverely said it appears Democrats are becoming more aggressive in the county.

Anyone else have their McCain signs damaged or stolen?

I gave my sister and brother-in-law a McCain/Palin yard sign and they put it in their Bakersfield front yard (good area; new West-side track homes) and both her McCain/Palin & "Yes on 8" signs disappeared (and so did 3 of the neighbor's same signs)on Wednesday of this week.

Damn liberal criminals..........

The sad thing about that Ron Paul chick faking her own beating in Pittsburgh, is that REAL crimes of violence by Obama supporters will be called either a "hoax" or "overblown rhetoric".

This is how the Nazi Propaganda Ministry would reply when they were accused of exterminating Jews- it was either a "hoax" or "overblown Allied Propaganda".
