Republicans at Hallowe'en

"As distasteful as it was, the stunt had the smell of desperation. ('Where evil meets stupid,' Stephen Elliott called it.) If Republicans are spending Sunday afternoon trying to fool voters with the some Gay Adoption signs then they must be in trouble. And the people in line weren’t buying. 'Nobody in this line is going to listen to them,' one woman said. A chorus of voters on either side chimed in: 'That’s right”; “We’re know what we’re doing'; 'We’re voting for Kerry no matter what that guy in the sign thinks he’s saying.'

Among the few people who didn’t realize what was happening at first, they were extremely annoyed when they figured it out. 'Is that Republicans over there? Yeah, it is!' said a man toward the back of the line. 'They’re gonna come down here and, try to try to fool us? That’s not happening.' Behind him, a woman added: 'Un-huh, that’s not right.'"
