      So I guess it was utterly meaningless when Obama signage proliferated the entire country in 2008z

      I think it's fair to say it means "something" but whether it's decisive in an election as unclear (EG with Bernie).

      Not decisive by any stretch, but indicative of voter enthusiasm in some broad, imprecise way.

      And in most elections, the vast majority of people don't express their views in any signage.

      Of course not. Nobody ever doubted that.

      Obama was/is a symbol of cool, cosmopolitanism. Trump is the antithesis. But both are kind of a fashion statement for some.

      And HRC is a symbol of... nothingness. Banal continuity. Thus the sapped enthusiasm relative to Obama.

      Perhaps, in the sense of Kerry, Gore, Bush, Clinton I, etc.

      Gore, maybe. Kerry not so much: he was the repository of anti-establishment sentiment just by virtue of running against Bush.

      I'm not talking about sentiment. I'm talking about aesthetics and self expression.

      Yeah, I think the aesthetics of Kerry support in 2004 had a tinge of anti-establishment to it. Remember "Rock the Vote"???

          And really, Kerry as some kind of anti-establishment avatar?

          He subsumed some of those sentiments just because Bush and the war were so loathed.

          My recollection is that the aesthetics of Kerry support were more desperation than anything else.

          Meh. That existed for the previous decade and was a forced, corporate thing.
