A lot of thought goes into design and color when the decisions are made on these signs. Of course, no sane person one would base their decision to vote for someone based on the design of a yard sign, but keep in mind their purpose is visibility. Name recognition and branding are important. Getting the candidates name out is big.
was something the Bush camp attempted to do with "W". It was just to easy to morph that into ugly epithets, though (Wrong, Wimpy, etc.) so they dropped it.
Or are the yard signs practically indistinguishable this time? You have to look close to see if it's a B/C sign or a K/E sign. They're the same colors and layout.
10. Kerry's signs are American-flag-blue background
while B-C's are a darker, navy blue. The connotation I get from the darker blue is "conservative, in control". The lighter blue connotation is "loyal, patriotic". That's just my perspective.
