This is just funny. He's gaining more press from this than signs could ever give him. Maybe it'd be smart just to laugh about the entire situation, instead of getting really mad about it.

Well I can see where he is getting mad about it, because he is paying for those signs. To bad most of these kids that are stealing his signs can't vote though, because he would win easily.

how bout maybe making cheaper signs, i mean $4.50 for a sign, good lord. or, why not just rent a billboard. bet they cant steal it, haha.

Haha. Billboard would be awesome. The one right in front of wal-mart.

And just for fun.. put.

"I'm RICK JAMES. Vote for me!"

What did the five fingers say to the face???
