During the 2008 election, my area of Fairfield County Connecticut was awash in Obama signs. They were on bumper stickers and lawn signs. Some people wore campaign buttons. In short, it was "cool" to show support for Obama. There were one or two McCain signs, but they were something of an oddity. That's not the case this time. there still are some Obama bumper stickers and lawn signs, but I have actually seen more Romney-Ryan signs around town. I doubt that Mitt Romney will carry Connecticut; such a victory would signify a national landslide. Nevertheless, it is going to be much closer here than it has since 1988 when George H. W. Bush (who was born and raised in my town) won the state.
