I've seen a bunch of upside down American flag stickers on cars here in Skerry Country (near L.A.). What the heck does that mean? At first I thought, they must not realize they put their sticker on upside down but then I saw it again and again. My husband just said it's more of the same, "I hate America" crowd, but what does it mean? Anyone?

Today, I walked for an hour plus in Lincoln Park and a little bit of Wyandotte. The sign count was 52/29 in favor of Kerry, so about 36% Bush. This was probably the nicer part of both towns.

I drove through Allen Park last week. The sign count was 99/98 in favor of Bush, and I haven't been through an area which was decidedly pro Bush from my visits before.

I wonder how the sign percentage translate into voting percentage. I'm taking a guess that whatever the leader is above 50%, the voting amount is half that. For example, if I see 70% Kerry signs, I'll assume that the intimidation factor of not wanting to display a sign in the midst of Kerry supporters will come into play, and that the voting percentage will be half of the amount (70-50) over the 50% or 60% on voting day.
