Yardsign season again

1. If there’s not going to be a runoff, then why the concern trolling?

   Awkward…

   1. Otherwise the author would have gone around looking for lots of yard signs.

      I don’t live in Denver, don’t follow Denver politics, and don’t know who the hell Hancock is.

      But I recognize a hit piece when I see it (thanks, in no small part, to the OP’s other hit pieces diaries).

      So, Hancock supporters, use this thread as an opportunity to post pictures of non-Hancock yard signs.  It’s only fair.

      1. Yard signs are stupid. Writing about them is even dumber.

2. Best. pictures. evah.

   I have to tell you that it makes me think you found this one and made a big deal out of it.

   Also, public sidewalks and grasses have always been places for political signs. Just ask a certain candidate from Greenwood Village; they are allowed to be there.

   Who are you supporting? If I post a picture of their sign on public land will you stop?

   At this point I’m pretty well ambivalent. After reading this diary… well, I wish I could punish you a little. And I’m not the punishing type.

3. That’s a great picture of the Hancock signs so thanks for making sure anybody who doesn’t see them gets a good look on here. Seriously though, this diary is weak and smells of desperation. Or maybe it’s just somebody with nothing else to do but try to distract from the fact that people really don’t like your guy. Like somebody else said I thought you said Romer is going to win in a landslide?

   For the record I wish campaigns would stick to just putting signs in actual yards but this happens. Heck I wish there wasn’t the whole yard sign wars that really don’t mean anything. I’ve seen most campaigns signs already in places they shouldn’t be. You posted this picture. I’ve seen Mejia’s in medians by the park and Romer’s on high school lawns. None of them should be in any of these places but seriously there are a lot more important things going on than who has more yard signs and where they are! Can you maybe write a diary about why you support your guy instead of these drive-by shill posts and attacks?

   1. I could get behind that.

4. They are on public right of ways. You can try to astroturf all you want but at least keep your signs to people’s yards.

   Dude, thats called visibility. Don’t take any offense to it, just a campaign operative doing their job. If they put up enough to have someone like you complain, that should be considered a job well done.

5. This makes me want to vote for Hancock, just like I want to vote against Hancock after I read stuff by that pro-Hancock imbecile who keeps posting “Michael Hancock’s ‘We Are Denver’ Campaign fantabulously announced XYZ…”

   I suppose it’s fortunate the opposing forces are so equally annoying that I won’t be induced to vote for either side out of annoyance. On the other hand, it would’ve been nice to have the major mayoral candidates employ agents able to post substantive ideas…

   1. I love that faux-word. Anyway, neither is the only choice.

      Mejia put on big boy pants and wrote his own diary, if the blog aspect is important to you, and even answered the questions. It was a good thing.

      Boigon hasn’t posted (iirc), but she is also capable of having an actual conversation where words mean things.

      FRRR could be Romer and I wouldn’t be shocked. You’re right, it’s obnoxious, but Denver has other choices. Good choices.

      1. … b/c I’m entirely undecided, so any indication one candidate is more serious is a welcome observation
