Signs O' the Time

There is at least one conclusion to be drawn at this point in the presidential race: people love to get creative with poster board and sticks. Florida's zealous protesters have occupied street corners since Nov. 8, and their signs have been getting progressively craftier and goofier. By last Friday, rabble rousers even besieged the front porch of the U.S. Supreme Court. Of course, there is the occasional misspelling, e.g., WINNERS NOT WINERS. And in our strictly nonpartisan view, Republicans seem to be winning the poster war.
