1. Crude, obvious photoshop job.

But, if true, somebody ought to put it up within sight of the convention.

2. Apparently not

Ruth’s List Florida, a pro-choice group focused on getting Democratic women elected (supported by the national Emily’s List) has purchased a large billboard on the intersection of I-275 and Armenia hoping to catch the attention of GOP convention attendees, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

“Where the mayor and all city council members are Democrats,” the billboard reads. “Enjoy your visit.”

4. Well, it might exist, but this pic is a photoshop job

And it is an obvious one.

I would like to see an actual pic if this exists.

1. The border of the physical sign doesn't match the putative content of the sign.

2. The physical sign is at an angle; the content is flat.

Obvious photoshop.

7. OK badly shopped...maybe only enlarged to make the message bigger?

Oh well. It's what is said that counts anyway. And how many Repugs have to drive past it.

Peace

9. Rte 275 is a major circling artery of Tampa.

Google shows that it to be a pretty good spot, really. It's on the way from money launderer and offshore reinsurer Vern Buchanan's fiefdom (R., FL Dist 13) down in the Sarasota/Bradenton area. Lots of his congressional buddies will go down to Longboat Key and will go by the sign, probably. It might get a lot more national attention in the media's drive to fill dead time during the convention.
