The all-important vacant lot vote
It's spring here in the People's Republic of Johnson County and lawns everywhere are blooming with yard signs.
I have no yard anymore but if I did it would look like this and this. And one more too. I do have a window but I just can't bear to take down my faded Dean sign.
One constant irritant of campaigns in this town is the classic yard sign on a vacant lot. Makes me wonder if there are some invisible voters living there. And since vacant lots are often on the market, you get the amusing juxtaposition of signs:
|GEORGE W POLITICIAN| |FOR SALE|
(A great Louisiana politician once said "My vote is not for sale, but it can be rented.")
