Smearing yard signs with Vaseline to protect against vandalism: N.C., Va. share swing-state stories (http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/lining-yard-signs-vaseline-protect-against-vandalism-n-142943389--election.html)
this article is a hoot, but at the same time makes sense. One selected paragraph:
I've learned that a way to reduce that vandalism is to line the edges of the sign with Vaseline, making its destruction a gooey, messy proposition. Sometimes vandals stop in mid-destruction, and I come home in the evening to a sign someone started to destroy but then stopped because their hands became a mess.
