Absolutely stunned...

Hello Blogging World,
As many of you may know Texas, my home state, has a Republican majority. My university has pleasantly surprised me with its political diversity. I have seen a rather broad representation for both candidates throughout campus and the city. My roommate and I were eager to join the crowds in publicly representing our preferred candidate purchasing t-shirts and a yard sign. However, I was absolutely stunned when my roommate's pro-Obama yard sign was stolen from our yard. We share similar political views, and so we were both elated when our beautiful sign was erected amongst our Halloween decorations, but it took less than twenty-four hours to go missing. We were left utterly shocked. It leaves me wondering how many times this happens in the world. Did the culprit dislike Obama or was it merely a childish act? Are people really willing to go as far as to steal someone else's property over an election? I didn't think it would be such a big deal to show our Obama pride, but somebody has certainly proved me wrong. I hope our replacement sign doesn't get stolen.
