From he article:
But Russ Walker, national political director for FreedomWorks for America, said his group has no intention of removing the signs.
Thats absurd, Walker told The Hill of the local regulations. People should have the right to put signs up in support or opposition to candidates when they feel inclined.
Walker decried the local signage codes as a mechanism of the political establishment to oppose the grassroots.
I love it how cities pass code to squelch peoples free speech, he said.
Monahan expressly said, however, we dont want to step on freedom of speech, but the signs might have to ultimately be removed.
Walker said the group hadnt directed its activists on where to post the signs, and the fact that theyre everywhere is evidence of the grassroots support Bevin is drawing in Kentucky, in contrast with McConnell campaign staff.
We actually have thousands of people who are engaged, and typically, the McConnell campaign has to go out and buy this kind of support, he said.
Hmmmm.....
So, change the signs to read “Ditch Mitch!”.
“Hmmmm..... “
Yup!
must be hitting their target!
keep up the good work!
They would be IGNORING the signs if they were having no effect
This is good advertising
As a side note to the Kentucky race, when FreedomWorks asked Mr. Bevin (ahem) if he would respect Congress’s constitutional Section 8 of Article I limited powers if elected, does anybody know how Mr. Bevin replied?
“This is good advertising”
Right, they got EVERYBODY to see them! Old Mitch must be seething!
And I’m sure if they are taken down, they will be back in May...by the thousands!
0bammy Inauguration.
Glenn Beck Rally.
Sounds like the signs are working
Sounds like complaints are coming from McConnell himself
“Sounds like complaints are coming from McConnell himself”
And/or his minions and stooges in the local governments!
Bevin needs to hand out Ditch Mitch t-shirts and have a rally in front of City Hall.
As long as the landowner gives permission, Freedom Works is breaking no
law by placing signs. FK McConnell.
Yep, and here in Mississippi, we have THAD enough.
Trying to dump Cochran, too.
No doubt McConnell called his friends in the Jefferson County/Louisville governments to demand the signs be taken down. Ditch is from Louisville (or was before becoming a citizen of Mordor on the Potomac).
Bevin needs to hand out Ditch Mitch t-shirts and have a rally in front of City Hall.

As to the pictures on #12, T’s should be made up with pictures of the ‘traitors’ shaking hands or smiling with BO.
And a ‘catchy’ little statement or name accompanying it...
Probably get more mileage out of that rather than spending TV money for Daytime TV.....
