I drove from Grand Rapids to Southfield today (Southfield Exit off 696) and was surprised to see more Bush bumper stickers than Kerry. I didn't count though, so can't provide numbers. In addition, I saw 2 Bush billboards, and 4 or 5 large Bush signs on property along the expressway. No Kerry billboards, and 1 lame Sportsmen for Kerry big sign.

Since you seem to know Michigan well, I wondered if you had any comment about a Kerry mailing I received today. It was addressed using my full name, the only mail I get like this come from Michigan, where I went to school. Do universities sell mailing lists?

I would not be surprised if U-M sold the list. Or any college for that matter.

Unfortunatly, that Sportsmen for Kerry sign is about 2 miles from my place. Union types I think own the property there. They had dem signs there in 02 as well for union backed candidates.

I know where at least two or three of the Bush billboards were at. Fowlerville and Webberville have a couple of them along the highway. I pass by them almost every day.

BTW - Did you see the plywood signs for my state rep(Joe Hune). That was a low budget move from 2002, and it worked so well that they brought them back.
