Really bad Biden/Harris sign I've been seeing around Madison.

IMG_0497

It's so awful! The facelessness, the man in back, the messy hair for her, and his hair doesn't look like Biden's at all! It seems more like Bill Clinton. And why is the man in back? It reminds me of all those pictures of Biden sniffing women's hair.

Kamala is way too dark.

I'm half Italian and I'm darker than she is...

Oh, and why does Michelle 'Big Mike' Obama have dead straight hair?

Yes, I know it's a rug.

Isn't that cultural appropriation?

Sydney said...

Ha! When I first looked at your photo, I thought the sign was leaning against the trash can waiting to be taken away with the trash. Had to take a second look to realize it was stuck in the lawn with those thin metal sign posts.

RK said...

Because they're just figureheads and won't be in charge. Wink wink. (Pssst - deep state).

Sally327 said...

I saw a Biden facemask yesterday.

Maybe that is why the facial features are missing in this poster. The artist wouldn't want to show them without masks so just leave them faceless.

Yancey Ward said...

They aren't faceless- they are wearing masks.

curt said...

It’s an honest sign. We have no idea who will be making the decisions if they win.

Bob Boyd said...

It's so awful!

Agree.
I like thisLA street art by Sabo better.

JaimeRoberto said...

I'd be tempted to draw googly eyes on Joe and a smirk on Kamala.

Nonapod said...

And why is the man in back?

Obviously because he doesn't matter. He's just there to trick enough of the middle class rubes in swing districts into voting for president Harris.

Diversitists paint by numbers, by preconceptions.

Fredrick said...

Two blank slates? Looks like good trolling.

stevew said...

Are they mooning us?

mikee said...

The South Park episode (S5/E10) about people who have buttocks where their heads should be, comes to mind.

Balfegor said...

With the part in the hair doesn't it look more like Pence than Clinton?

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

Biden is in back because Harris is the actual top of the ticket.

They are faceless - because the excitement for the left IS ANY faceless person beating Trump.

minnesota farm guy said...

I am going to start right OT. I believe that Trump made a really wise decision to sink a "virtual debate". Can you imagine the assistance senile Joe would get from his staff in the basement. Why bother? Joe needs to be put under pressure and I suspect that this time Trump was prepared to let him wonder off into la la land as he is wont.

The performance of the moderators has been such that it is foolishness to submit to the "narrative" each has pushed. I can't see a town hall being any better because feel that for whatever reason the Commission is going to end up with all Dems asking questions phrased in the same ways that the two moderators have phrased them.

Finally I will insert a sign observation. I live in SE MN which I think tends a bit red. The Trump Pence signs here are an easy 10 to 1 over Biden.

PluralThumb said...

If your white men are not all homosexuals by the time I'm finished, on drugs, poor or working for me. Well, I have not been the best cross gender race switching antagonist.

That looks like Mr. Pence's hair.
Mrs. Harris has dreads?

Faceless, the doom of Uber.

Inga still looking for a boyfriend or a white wicker chair ?

minnesota farm guy said...

The sign is truly weird, but the candidates are weird. I don't think that I have seen a less qualified, less capable duo offered to the American people in th 50+ years I have been observing. McGovern probably runs a close second, but at least he was not senile.

320Busdriver said...

You have to elect them to find out what’s inside.

It’s ludicrous.

RNB said...

Do the property owners set the dumpster on fire after sunset?

gilbar said...

didn't you notice, that their 'faces' are really the backsides of people mooning you?

gilbar said...

they're sticking their asses at you, saying
FUCK YOU AMERICA! WE HATE YOU; AND YOU'LL STILL VOTE FOR US!

Kevin said...

It reminds me of all those pictures of Biden sniffing women's hair.

You beat us to it!

d_men3 said...

Oddly I think it fits, their ticket represents nothing but a faceless old guy and a brown woman with a D beside their names.

Kevin said...

Are you sure these aren’t Harris/Biden signs?

bagoh20 said...

Biden says you'll find out his policy on court packing after the election? Are there any journalist left in America? This will tell us.

Ingachuck'stoothlessARM said...

remember "Julia"?

She was faceless too.

If you want a vision of the future, imagine THAT under a boot.

Lefties want you nameless, faceless, soulless droids

Mr. O. Possum said...

Mannequins.

Dummies.

NorthOfTheOneOhOne said...

Maybe Althouse is supposed to sneak out at night and draw the faces in.

rcocean said...

Its terrible, like everything about the Biden-harris campaign.

rcocean said...

The blank faces are more attractive then the real ones.

Mike of Snoqualmie said...

Because they are portraying Non Player Characters. Faceless drones.

Ann Althouse said...

“ Ha! When I first looked at your photo, I thought the sign was leaning against the trash can waiting to be taken away with the trash. Had to take a second look to realize it was stuck in the lawn with those thin metal sign posts.”

Yeah, too bad it’s trash day. I couldn’t figure out a good angle.

boatbuilder said...

Blue mooning!

rhhardin said...

There's so far not a single Biden lawn sign on my daily bicycle wanderings, and over a dozen Trump signs.

holy CRAP! he's RIGHT! i just went and looked, and Julia is faceless too!

Joe Smith said...

"Maybe Althouse is supposed to sneak out at night and draw the faces in."

Rat faces?

Yancey Ward said...

"The South Park episode (S5/E10) about people who have buttocks where their heads should be, comes to mind."

LOL! I was thinking the same thing- I thought to myself that if I were there, I would take Sharpie marker and draw a butt crack down the middle.

JPS said...

The Biden/Harris sign I most dislike in my neighborhood reads,

"Biden/Harris. Obviously.

Wrapped in that obviously is everything that bugs me about the liberals who make up almost all my colleagues, and a majority of my neighbors.

MayBee said...

I've been bothered by the logo. Why does Biden get the fancy red E, but there's no red for Harris?
It's just two names with different things going on, stuck together.

CWJ said...

Wait, this photo is from the lawn looking out toward the street. Althouse, is the sign posted in your yard or are you trespassing on someone else's to take the photo?

cubanbob said...

Great NPC. Just as good as the empty chair eight years ago.

Michael K said...

The performance of the moderators has been such that it is foolishness to submit to the "narrative" each has pushed.

Yeah, choosing Nancy's biography was a "tell." Wallace may have some cred from Fox but that is rapidly going away. It was funny. I saw a proTrump facebook post today from, what's her name, the plastic blonde Megyn. Maybe she is looking for a job at Fox.

tommyesq said...

It looks like the Pence-Harris debate when they were side-by-side in split screen.

Mannequins.


Sexist - should be peoplequins. Maybe Xequins.

Static Ping said...

It does work well as a blank canvas for 4chan trolls. It has that going for it.

Mike of Snoqualmie said...

I've seen two Biden/Harris signs, one Biden sign and a hand made Biden/Harris sign. The hand made sign was at the entrance to a park and has since been removed. All of this in Bellevue/Redmond, WA. No Trump signs.

Plenty of Culp (R) for Governor signs, three "Defeat King Inslee" signs (they disappeared), but no Inslee(D) signs. There was a Culp/Inslee debate last night after the Pence/Harris debate. Culp wiped the floor with Inslee.

Michael K said...

Lots of local race signs around my area. Trump signs in the median of a busy street.

Joe Smith said...

@MayBee

"I've been bothered by the logo."

As someone who has designed hundreds of logos, many for multi-million/billion dollar companies, the Biden logo is very weak...

MadisonMan said...

Yes, I've seen those as well and had the same reaction. Soul-less people. They look like Dr Who villains.

Gk1 said...

Why are they making homemade ones? Are the biden campaign folks so lame they can't supply any? I actually have now seen up to 5 different cars with Biden bumper stickers the last week or so. This seems more normal to me in NorCal and yet only 3 very small biden yard signs. That is odd.

n.n said...

People, men and women, who identify as white use the Biden skin. People who identify as black use the Harris skin. Clever.

NCMoss said...

Even Dilbert has a nose and ears.

Scott said...

I'm sort of sorry, but at first look all I could see was the crease at the bottom of the featureless faces and think of the South Park episodes with Steven and Martha Thompson . . . who have butts for faces. https://southpark.fandom.com/wiki/Stephen_and_Martha_Thompson

Art imitates life.

GingerBeer said...

Good enough artwork to decorate the plywood used to board up the windows on State St. after the coming celebratory riots on Election night. Can you still post "riots" on a Google platform?

BUMBLE BEE said...

Harris is by definition the Runt of the dem litter. How vacant is it to run someone who didn't even show up at the convention. This is a Rod Serling Delirium Tremens ticket.

rwnutjob said...

I live in NC and have never seen a Biden sign & just one bumper sticker and it is supposedly a "battleground state."

exhelodrvr1 said...

I agree with the above comments - immediately thought of the milk carton in the South Park episode. "How to Eat With Your Butt"

Professional lady said...

Here's an idea for the debates. Why not have Biden answer questions submitted by Trump and have Trump answer questions submitted by Biden? I think I know the answer.

Doug said...

NorthOfTheOneOhOne said...
Maybe Althouse is supposed to sneak out at night and draw the faces in.

A worthy suggestion for ANY enterprising Madisonian. Perhaps someone less neutral and more cruel.

Mr. T. said...

The tie and collar on "Biden" looks like a cravat from the 19th century, while the collar on the lady on the sign looks like a house maid's.

The whole thing evokes the image of a slave owning land owner and his servant.


Way to go leftists in advertising slavery. Good thinking there...

Will Cate said...

Good grief... for a moment I thought I was looking at a pair of butt-cracks.

JAORE said...

It shows a representation of the race of the two D candidates. Most importantly one of the two is NOT white. That is the only important factor for a lot on the left.

Amadeus 48 said...

Obviously concocted by the Trump campaign.

James L. Salmon said...

I immediately thought each figure needs an NPC character nose, mouth and eyes added. For those not familiar with the NPC memes they derive from the monotone preprogrammed responses of None Player Characters in video games like Grand Theft Auto etc. Some of the memes are hilarious. An NPC loon on the left always responds with a pre-programmed response like, "That's racist, homophobic etc. etc." These two are pre-programmed Marxist bots so the NPC meme is perfect for them.

Jupiter said...

"the messy hair for her"

It's supposed to remind you of dreads. Harris is impersonating an Afro-American for Halloween. It's OK, she's a Democrat.

Bilwick said...

Besides giving Joey Plugs a more luxuriant growth of hair, it also appears to be trying to make BJ Harris look more Black, an insult to Afro-Americans everywhere.

Kirk Parker said...

Professional Lady,

Almost. But not "submitted by"-- rather "asked by" in real time. No moderator, no compiler of questions... nothing but an automated device that enables your mic and shows you a green light for x minutes, and then switches to the other participant after that pre-agreed interval. Plus a button that lets you yield the rest of your time, if that suits you.

Jim at said...

That's because you are.

Mark said...

People -- Please watch more South Park.

Maillard Reactionary said...

I suspect that the designer realized when the poster was at this stage of completion that they were in over their head in terms of the artistic skill needed to pull it off, and decided to leave out the faces, in order not to rub our noses in their lack of ability. Faces are the hardest part.

Odd how others thought that it might be usable in this condition, and that they were so blind to the many unintentional ways it might be interpreted, many of which others above have mentioned.

To me the message is, "Make of us what you will. We are what you hope we are."

Are Democrat voters that stupid? Yes, probably. Just today Gropey Joe recycled old Malig-Nancy's line from the ACA affair about "passing the bill to find out what's in it", saying that when he was elected we'd find out what his position was on packing the Supreme Court.

Yep, they're that stupid.
