Anyone afraid of putting a Romney sticker on their car? (Vanity)

I live in congressional district in metro DC area that went heavily for Obama in 2008. I just got my first Mitt Romney for President 2012 bumper sticker. I am a die hard Republican and I have put GOP bumper stickers on my car in the past. However this year I am seriously hesitating putting the Romney one on even though I very much want him to win. Reason: I fear physical assault to my person or vehicle. Furthermore I know it is early in the election cycle but I haven't seen any Romney stickers on any cars either. Anyone else having this fear?

Reagan was a Nolan Ryan fastball, straight and direct, and everybody else has run like a Phil Niekro knuckleball, floating around all over the place.

I love it.

May I use it ?

-—I’ve seen a few 2012 ‘obamma for president’ bumper snickers, but not one of romney’s.-——

I sell 5 Palin t-shirts for every Romney t-shirt, still, with the election 4 months away.

And plenty of anti-Obama gear.

[Chickensoup]

I would be more embarrassed than afraid.

For me personally, it is a good year to focus on congressional races.

was a bumpersticker that i thought said it all.

I love this sticker

[saminfl]

I saw a bumper sticker I really liked the other day. It was on the rear window of a small pickup that I passed. It was perfectly round, Obama campaign blue and had a single word, “NOPE” with the O being Obammy’s symbol. I looked all over the internet for one and all I could find were oval shaped and not quite the right color of blue.

[N. Theknow]

That would appear to be the "single-white-Kwanzaa-celebrating-female-elementary-schoolteacher-mobile.

aka

A fricking Volvo.

[TribalPrincess2U]

I never do bumper stickers.
I do put a non-specific sign in my yard all elections.

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.

I have a feeling we’ll not see too many 0 stickers this time either.
Saw only a few around here in DFW area last time.

[GenXteacher]

Afraid, no. But I really don’t like Romney so I am not putting one there.

[Lee'sGhost]

I’d rather put an “Obama sucks” sticker on my truck.

[MCOAvalanche]

I may put a Romney sticker on once he chooses his running mate. Of course, his choice will help me decide.

[N. Theknow]

Use it whenever needed, with my blessings.

[xsmommy]

OMG that is awesome, where can i get one????

[Nevadan]

re: Anyone else having this fear?

Absolutely! Let's face it: Most Democrats and/or Libtards are simply not as law-abiding as the rest of us. Many, especially rabid Obama supporters even feel justified vandalizing the property of others who support the opposing candidate. Placing a Romney sticker on ones car or a sign in ones yard practically “invites” vandalization or worse. I speak from personal experience.

I disagree, however that bumper stickers have no impact. Four years ago when Obama stickers were plastered on millions of cars in the US, it added to the juggernaut of Obama’s election. If “everyone else” is voting for the guy, maybe I should too.......

[DH]

I would not put one on my bumper because it advertises the fact that I am gullible, naive and a “camp follower” and can’t think for myself.

[gortklattu]

Google it; there are several stores that sell the sticker.

I wish I had it on my car when I was in Fort Collins; I’m in Colorado Springs now, watching the fires.....absolutely unbelievable!!!

[Vigilanteman]

FWIW, I still have a Palin sticker on my back bumper. It was applied four years ago in September when I cut McCain's name off the top.

I suppose I should replace it with something more contemporary. But I was thinking more along the lines of a "Tom Smith for Senate" sticker than a "Romney" sticker.

FWIW, I drive a 15 year old car with over 200K miles on the odometer, so I need the stickers to cover rust and/or hold the panels in place.

[Arrowhead1952]

Was a little nervous about putting the (FUBO) sticker on my pick up.

Been three years now and so far no problem just inquiries

Same here, since I had to make trips into Austin. I got some magnetic sign material and take it off when I'm in Berkley on the Colorado. No problem in my home town.

There is one pickup near here that has so many anti 0 bummer stickers, you can't see the tailgate. He also has a number on the back glass, I don't think he can use his inside rear view mirror.

[JimRed]

Here’s an idea: Get an old beater and label it as Republican/Conservative with the appropriate bumper stickers. Park it on the street (a la “Bait Car”) with camera surveillance and catch the local RATs in action.

[EternalVigilance]

Yep.

[nycteacher]

I have a Romney Bumper sticker but put magnets on it and laminated it. Parked where it is in the Bronx I would be asking to have my car vandalized if I were to leave it on. The car after all spends time parked in Charlie Rangels diistrict. I have no issue putting it back on for the ride out of here. I love passing libs with an Obama sticker honking and laughing.

[myself6]

heh...

Screw romney.

I refuse to put a socialists sticker on my car regardless of the party it is infesting.

[xsmommy]

oh that is just terrible out there. Prayers for everyone in the path of the fires.

[Johnny_cash]

"I don’t put anything on my stuff which would attract irritation when I’m not around. Just takes one off-kilter idiot. Low-profile is preferred in most situations."

I have a Subaru outback and the back window is covered with this 8.5X22

I have been in NC for almost a year now and get a lot of thumbs up with it, and every time I see a car with an Obummer sticker I pass when I can and make sure they have a chance to read it.

To be honest I friggin dare some one to get in my face over it!! I have about ran out of tolerence for these @ss hats PERIOD..... BRING IT ON!!!

[FreedomFighter1013]

I drive a Cadillac: it feels too self-serving, plus I don’t want to get “keyed.” I would like a: “I am the 99%” sticker. I think it would be nice juxtapositioning. I will put a “Believe in America” window sticker on.

[MinuteGal]

You try it first and let us know what happens.

LOL

[PLD]

I would not put either Romney or Obama on my car or any other thing I have..I can't stand either one of the egotistical morons..

[LuvFreeRepublic]

Great sticker!

[CodeToad]

I would be afraid someone might think I actually supported the creep.

[nolongerademocrat]

I am. I live in a majority Black city. I just can’t afford to buy new tires and new paint all the time. The good news is that I have only seen one Obama sticker, on an Escalade. I do however have a NRA sticker.

I’m just tryin’ to do like my Momma told me, “don’t ask for trouble”.

[pepperdog]

I actually saw one a couple of weeks ago in Austin Texas...liberal yuppie land.

[silverleaf]

Your car will get keyed at the mall, or elsewhere

You will get parking tickets... or worse...if you park in DC or Montgomery. Yoo could even get assaulted at a red light in DC.

Got to be a stealth oppponent of the Won

[mkjessup]

Putting a Romney bumper sticker OR a conservative bumper sticker (note I am making a distinction here) on your car in the Metro DC area is like standing in front of a thousand-strong mob of rioting 'Holder's people' with just one revolver, and one bullet like Barney Fife insisting that "order must be restored!".

If you follow through with your plans, I hope you have a real low deductible -and- comprehensive coverage on your vehicle, you'll probably be making a few claims.

PS - National Tire Warehouse out in Rockville Maryland usually has pretty good specials on tires, make a note of that since your own might end up slashed.

[Heart of Georgia]

Being that they’re OBVIOUSLY brain-dead, they probably thought those stickers would peel right off!

[mountainlion]

RHINOs are my last choice to vote for.

[mkjessup]

Here’s an idea: Get an old beater and label it as Republican/Conservative with the appropriate bumper stickers. Park it on the street (a la “Bait Car”) with camera surveillance and catch the local RATs in action.

I like the way you think. As an alternative tactic, pick up a whole bunch of Sarah Palin bumper stickers (since the left hates her with a passion) and locate the vehicle of the most extreme and rabid 0bamunist in your neighborhood, slip out around Midnight and plaster their car with Sarah, and let their fellow 0bamunists do the dirty work for you. LOL

[Bulwinkle]

i live by fairfax city. in 2008 there was pro-obama vandalism in the area. this is a different year. obama supporters are not psycho like they were in 2008

[Doogle]

you can always go the opposite...

[DTogo]

Waiting for the bumper sticker to say: Romney/West '12

[CatherineofAragon]

Afraid, no. But I would be ashamed to have a sticker touting an abortion-enabler and sodomite lover.

[P.O.E.]

My fave so far:

[Little Ray]

No, I just don’t want a “Romney” sticker. And I will want it even less if Rubio is the VP candidate (RR?).

The last sticker I had was “McCain - If I have to, I guess.”
What really wanted was a “mccain - PALIN!” sticker...

[Doogle]

[Vigilanteman]

FWIW, I have a few of these left over from my last gun show. I’ll sell them at cost, $2 each plus a stamped addressed long envolope. Freepmail me if you are interested.

[JimRed]

...slip out around Midnight and plaster their car with Sarah, and let their fellow 0bamunists do the dirty work for you.

I also had the idea to "out" raving liberals to the local progressives as stealth conservatives infiltrating their ranks. But that would be bearing false witness against your neighbor...

:^(

[greene66]

I avoided ever putting a sticker on my car for three decades, until in Jan. 2009, when I put a Palin sticker on my bumper. It’s still there, and remains in fine shape. I even have a replacement sticker if needed.

Living in a ‘blue’ voting county, I had a few qualms. But when I’m out and about, I tend to park at the far ends of parking lots, where the car is out in the open, and less liable to be a target of vandals. And, I’m more than well-armed if anyone tries anything in my presence.

No way in hell would I ever put a Romney sticker on my car. The mere idea makes my skin crawl.

[newzjunkey]

I saw some in Nashville earlier this year although most were 2008.

Too many folks underestimate his chances for reelection. This isn't John Kerry. Learned social guilt will cause people to doubt whether they should turn him out just because of a pathetic economic recovery.

[Nevadan]

that is a great sticker!

[Red Badger]

There’s a reason they are called ‘BUMPER’ stickers..........

[SouthernBoyupNorth]

I dont fear being attacked.... I will not however advertise for Mittens.... I will hold my nose AGAIN and vote for the pig but hes still a big gov pig.
