1. Deafeat W
It's clearer. I like byebeyw also, but people might not get it.

11. DEFEATW it is, that's the consensus.
I've already ordered them.

Now I just hope that I don't get keyed or fired from my job.

2. DEFEAT W is clearer...
Might take people less time to grasp your meaning--then maybe they'll pay attention to driving instead of reading your car's ass. :)

I have this theory that drivers in Virginia are so bad because it's so cheap to get vanity plates here--therefore, everyone has one. I think people are constantly crashing into each other because they're trying to read vanity plates.

But it's just a theory. :)

3. Definitely DEFEATW
On first glance I read the other one as "Byebye You"

4. Some Other Nominees
Note that in Illinois, at least, we get to insert a half space or two among the seven letters, so I'd recommend you do that if possible. On with the nominees:

TOSS GWB
BEAT GWB
NO BUSH 2
NOT BUSH
BUSH SUX
VOTE DEM
GWB LOST
NE1 BUT W
BUSH ICK
NO GWB 04
VOTE NO W
GWB AWOL
BUSH OUT
KICK GWB
KIK BUSH
KIK W OUT
W NU 9 11
W LIHOP
NO SHRUB
BUSH BAD
BUSH DUM

5. How long do you keep your plates ?
Here in Ohio we use the same ones for several years. So I would pick byebyew. That plate would still be relevant after * is gone and we have a Dem in the WH in 2005. Got to think ahead.

:think:

12. 'BYEBYEW'
Edited on Sun Aug-17-03 05:53 PM by liberalmuse
It's a positive, final affirmation that doesn't leave any room for loopholes like 'DEFEATW' does.
