In Michigan, Santorum supporters planted hundreds of campaign signs in Shelby Township prior to Mitt Romney’s appearance today. Some of these signs were planted alongside sidewalks and roadways across from and surrounding the Romney campaign stop. Approximately two hours before the scheduled event, Romney campaign staffers, including Dennis Lennox of Topinabee, MI, began planting Romney signs in front of the location. Around the same time, several other people, who refused to identify themselves, began uprooting hundreds of Santorum signs along the roadway leading to the event. Signs placed at a commercial intersection were also removed.

When asked to explain his actions, Santorum supporters were confronted with obscenities from one person removing signs. He claimed to be unaffiliated with the Romney campaign.

One officer on the scene, Lou Francis, refused to assist in retrieving stolen campaign signs valued at over $1500.

Well, I guess there is finally eye witness proof that he is a Democrat.

The Romney-Paul campaign is shameless!

Indisputable visual evidence. :-)

The Romney campaign has to be one of the sleaziest, most unscrupulous out there.

Romney = Obama. Same ideas. Same tactics. What more do you need to know?

[Irenic]

I wonder if sign-remover-man ‘just doing his job’ is a legal immigrant?

Turn the video into a campaign ad and plaster the ad across Michigan.

When I was a kid, signs such as garage sale signs and political signs placed along thouroughfares were against city ordinances.

During the political season I used to go along the major roads and collect huge bundles of free fire wood. Never knew anything about any of the candidates, but they sure helped get unseasoned hardwood started.

Gotta make this story go viral.

Where I am it is illegal to remove campaign signs within 30 days of an election, on public property, unless there is a public safety issue. A number of years ago a member of the city council was fined by the cops for removing a sign of an opponent posted at a busy intersection.

[GeronL]

The signs have to be removed within days after the election where I live.

The Mitt Romney Campaign - you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

Ann Coulter & Matt Drudge were up late last night!

Romney has so many home states, it sure looks like maybe he might have a house in Chicago too... Though thuggery is everywhere.

Romney hires illegals to take down Santorum signs.

Romney uses democratic tactics because Romney is a democrat.

Romney = Obama

I don’t see how any conservative can possibly support the commie Romney.

[BigEdLB]

Yes 14 days after to get them out...
