Grassroot SD Democrats. Restoring civility to South Dakota politics.
(Big Hat tip to Poliglut)I see that the Grassroots South Dakota Democrats are doing their part to restore civility to South Dakota politics with this billboard at about 41st and Louise in Sioux Falls.

Pretty Pathetic!!!
This is in very poor taste.
He certainly will not be getting my vote.
Grassroots SD is willing to take chances on its messaging. Sometimes they hit, sometimes they don't.
And BTW, Lisa Engels is a wonderful person with excellent people and organizational skills. She should run for public office some day.
There is a blogger on Mount Blogmore that is trying to get Todd Epp to show up with "Old Yeller" at one of Round's campaign stops! That's funny!
Relax! With all the hatred that is being spewed on the National level, this is minor....and funny!
I hope this gal does run for office someday...this Lisa Engels...wonder what animal she will represent in office? South Dakota has a long memory when it comes to these kinds of things!
"excellent people skills"??? Give me a break!!! Anyone who could do something like this to another person is just plain ignorant and we don't need mean spirited, ignorant people running for office!
8:45 PM called Herseth "ice princess"! Now that IS funny! But I really don't know what type of funny character would work for the "ice princess"! Any suggestions?
One time when I was running for city council my opponent put up some posters of me WITHOUT ANY EARS! She claimed that I wouldn't listen to the public! I took some of the posters down, autographed them, and then handed them to anyone that wanted them as election souvenirs. We all laughed about it.
I told the media that “of course I listen to the people”, but I also said that, even though my opponent didn’t have the slightest idea as to what she was talking about, I gave her credit for being creative!
So instead of my supporters being mad about the poster, everyone laughed about it! I don’t think that was what my opponent expected! The “earless” poster got a lot of good press for me. I won the election, but I don’t think it was because of this poster!
Relax, it’s all politics. Sit back and enjoy it! Laugh a little bit. It’s not going to hurt any of us!
It's hypocritcal to sensationalize your Senate rumor then criticize others for sensationalizing it.
It's uncivil to post what you posted. Far more uncivil than the Rounds/Chicken billboard you've promoted.
Charley House
And then not having the guts to stand by his own signature ("It's not my bill.")
Guess I was wrong.
1 - I have had more people say to me "Why does Rounds equal a roosteer?"
2 - Assuming one makes the "chicken" connection, the billboard never explains WHY he is a chicken - it is the functional equivalent at sticking out one's tongue.
3 - Assuming you have the courage (or stupidity) to slow way down on Louise so you can read the disclaimer, and assuming you go home and look up the Grassroots' website, what you find is that Rounds is supposedly "chicken" because he called off the KEVN forum with Billion because the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture came to the state to see the drought devastation. Say what you want about the value of this visit, but it would be pretty poor for the Governor to be a no-show.
AND - Rounds has debated Billion several times and will be doing a couple more - I think something like seven or eight. It is insane to say that he is afraid to debate.
Anyway, someone wasted their money.
A rooster is a male chicken.
A steer is a neutered male bovine.
So is a roosteer a neutered male chicken?
Roosteer = male chicken who can't do his job because he's been neutered.
Rounds = Roosteer?
Works for me.
