Signs of the times
I see over on the Politics Extra Blog that Brian Garry, unsuccessful Cincinnati City Council candidate, claims to have "retrieved" all of his campaign signs by noon the day after the election. Good for him, although as some commenters noted, "retrieved" rather than "disposed of" probably means he's put them away in a garage until the 2009 campaign season. Hey, good for him anyway. I suppose it could also mean he didn't have that many signs to start with.
Other candidates should follow his example (of taking the signs down, not necessarily planning the next campaign). For instance, there were still plenty of Melanie Bates and Mitch Painter signs to be seen on the drive in along Columbia Parkway as of this morning.

Post a Comment*Maybe you should just focus on your job and in the future do a much better job of covering elections in your paper David. Your coverge was still weak and biased.
We aren't impressed with your blog. Your paper is still the problem and there are plenty of blogs that do a better job than yours. You just want more clicks for more ad dollars.
Your paper will continue to decline and that's a sign of the times.
Painter is on top of it, and will be replacing his campaign signs with We Buy Houses signs.
