On a vehicle in central Missouri:
Disappointment.
On a vehicle in west central Missouri:
Trying too hard. And, still, an awkward construct.
It worked out for the best.

Today, on a vehicle in eastern Jackson County, Missouri:
Interestingly, there were no bumper stickers on the vehicle about the death penalty or war.
A single issue (November 2, 2008):
….A large sedan plastered with republican and anti-choice bumper stickers pulled to a stop as we walked down the street on our canvass. A little old lady (very spry) jumped out and asked us who we were. We told her we were canvassing for Obama. She told us, “Wait a minute, I’ve got something for you.” She pulled forward out of traffic, then jumped out of her car to open the trunk. We stopped our walk in the opposite direction and turned to walk toward the car. As she opened the trunk she turned to look for us and started, saying, “You scared me!”
“You know I’m pro-life.” I replied, “I take it that means you’re against the death penalty and war?” “Oh no, it’s about murdering babies. Do you believe in God? Are you saved, is Jesus your savior? What church do you belong to?” I replied, “I don’t. I’m Jewish.” Without missing a beat she asked, “What about Israel?” I replied, “What about it?” She handed us each a flier and asked us to read it, saying, “Pray on this. I know you’re doing what you believe in.” She turned to go back to her car and we each said, “Have a nice day….”
It will always be single issues.

Today, on a vehicle in west central Missouri:
That Mitt “I’m not a big-game hunter. I’ve made that very clear.
I’ve always been a rodent and rabbit hunter. Small varmints, if you will….” Romney?
If only the election had been later. Or four years earlier?

Today, on vehicles in western Jackson County, Missouri:
Oh, we get it. Not really.
I dunno, the battle flag of the Army of Tennessee/second Confederate Navy jack is bigger than the American flag? What kind of message is that? And the pro-labor sticker? It’s not like President Obama’s political opposition ever supports organized labor.
Slightly less strident, with no cognitive dissonance in evidence.

Uh, the one on the right is Communist, right? Oh, I get it now.
Seriously, mixing two memes?

Steve Morris, Kansas Senate President, Blames Moderates’ Defeat On Conservative Attack Ads
Posted: 08/08/2012 7:02 pm Updated: 08/08/2012 8:34 pmCHICAGO — The leader of Kansas’ moderate Republicans said three weeks of attack ads from conservative groups, including those with ties to the Koch brothers, are to blame for Kansas Senate moderates’ losses during Tuesday’s primary.
Senate President Steve Morris (R-Hugoton), who lost his own seat to state Rep. Larry Powell in the primary, confirmed that internal polls showed moderate Republicans in the lead until roughly three weeks ago when a series of conservative groups launched radio and television attack ads on moderates….
