McBama and OCain: It’s not what you think

By CAROLYN SZCZEPANSKI

The yard signs outside the May residence on Rockhill Road look like some form of political protest.

Passers-by might assume the placards are an indictment against the two major parties, an argument that the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates are too similar to represent a meaningful choice for American voters. Commuters might conclude this household just south of the University of Missouri- Kansas City is throwing its weight behind a third-party candidate.

Or maybe they just think the Mays are advertising a new “Yes We Can” Burger from McDonalds.

They’d be wrong on all counts.
