Secure Your Obama Memorabilia

Amanda in Madison Valley has a warning for anyone who plans on keeping their Obama campaign paraphernalia:


I wanted to let you know that our Obama yard sign was stolen late last night/early this morning. (Also its wire frame.)  It was in our yard, intertwined with the rosemary and lavender bushes. 

(We have chairs, toys, push mower, etc outside--nothing else was taken.)

Apparently, all "official Obama" items are hot sellers on e-bay. 

So, people might want to consider moving them inside and showing support from their windows.

I don't know how I'm going to explain it to my 8-year old daughter:-(

Lock it up now, and in 25 years you can sell it on Ebay and fund your retirement.

someone already stole the magnets off my car. I got those in the mail when I donated! Not fair!

Yeah, we were bummed that someone took our obama sign. I want one of those "HOPE" posters that kind of looks like a soviet propoganda poster. Silly me -- I was waving one on an overpass above I-5 on Tuesday, but then I gave it back at the campaign headquarters on Pike. Should've held onto it.

You can have mine, in exchange for a small donation to Oxfam.

A few months ago I went down the Seattle Times offices on Fairview and got an extra copy of the special "farewell Sonics" section. I'd imagine they'd have a bunch of extra election issues there now (but it's probably worth calling first).

My magnet went straight onto my fridge and I think there it will stay for the forseeable future.
Additional Times/P-I reprints bymistamatic November 06, 2008 (0 votes) (report abuse) (reply)
I called the P-I this morning asking if they were considering reprinting their front section from Wednesday's paper, and the recep thought there were going to print a 4-page special section, but didn't know any other details yet. She took my name and number and said she'd let me know. I'll pass on the info when I get it!
Clearance Sale on the Obama website for souvenirs! bymistamatic November 07, 2008 (0 votes) (report abuse) (reply)

Just picked up the blue yard sign, poster and pin for a steal. UPS ground doubled the cost (another $12), but everything is half off. ;O)

...do you realize that yet? No to mention quite probably doomed to extinction in several generations' time. Hope? I think we're nearly dead already. You can call that a nice projection, if you will, and head back to bed. Pleasant dreams!

Friend of mine owns this company. They're local and really nice. She and I were handing out the 'History Made' signs on the hill Nov. 4th.
