Obama image painted on Republican Club building

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama made an appearance here over the weekend at the campaign headquarters of the Republican Club of Southeast Volusia, or at least his image did.

A likeness of the Illinois senator, in purple spray paint, was stenciled on the front window and outside columns of the Third Avenue headquarters overnight Friday.

Club officials reported the vandalism Saturday morning and told police they would be willing to prosecute the responsible party.

"I think it is some un-American, uninformed and misguided individual," headquarters committee chairman Bob McKeen said.

Fellow Republican supporter Jerry Rowen said his sign promoting the John McCain-Sarah Palin candidacy suffered the same fate.

"They also did it across the street to a telephone box," he said Monday.

In addition to spray painting, McKeen has heard of about 50 campaign signs being stolen since Thursday. That includes a 4-foot by 8-foot billboard from the 2300 block of State Road 44 overnight Friday. But he isn't pointing fingers at his Democratic counterparts.

Clyde Walker, president of the Southeast Volusia Democratic Club, was equally disgusted with the vandalism and thefts.

"That is aberrant," he said. "This should not be part of the democratic process."

Can we add this to the slashing of tires in 2004, breaking into Palin's Yahoo account and other acts against GOP candidates and electioneering?

We should build an Obama statue.

And then pull it down with a tank.

Reaffirms my opinion that Nobama supporters are largely idiots, punks and criminals.

An Obamite came by a couple of days ago, and I said, "Thanks, I'm a Republican." To which he smiled an said, "That's all you need to say."

'Guess he noted the address.

Well' such as it is.

You have to report it to the police because if a person (or persons) is willing to deface property for Obama at this point - what will he do when Obama loses? Burn the place down?

It is getting ugly out there.

The democrats are CHEERING at the crisis. When the news is bad for america it is good for democrats.

McCain has utterly failed to capitalize on killin the house bill or any revision in the senate.

Republicans are still the stupid party.

Have some fun with it instead of getting all upset.

Spray paint a thought bubble with “um, ahh, umm. . .”

“John McCain is RIGHT,”

or put some Marxist style graphics reading “COMMUNIST” or MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE or something.

Two can play at this little game.

As a description of the perp, that pretty much covers most of Obama's supporters, doesn't it...

The commies are getting feisty, every time they get confident they overreach. I will relish this election day more than any other, seeing Obama get crushed is going to be like 10 Jet Super Bowls rolled into one.

Awesome vid at the link.

You know what’s really worrying about the prospect of an Chicago Slim victory? His pumped-up supporters will start throwing their weight around, push will come to shove and we’ll have something very close to a civil war.

You know what’s really worrying about a Chicago Slim defeat? His pumped-up supporters will skip the push-to-shove part and go straight into the rioting/revolution routine.

God help us one and all.

How else could you vote for this empty suit?

Check out this YouTube video comparing a speech given by Duvall Patrick in 2006 and Obama’s in 2008.

The guy ripped off the whole thing:

Just a mindless copycat with a teleprompter, and the masses eat it up.

That would be a grave error on their part, and I emphasize the word "grave".

Yep. I’m with you when (if) they start the re-eduction routine, but I’d much prefer peaceful verbal abuse.
