Is it a sign?

Here's a photo of a big yard sign for Democratic Texas House candidate Joe Moody. What's the big deal about that?
Well, what caught my attention is the location of the sign. It's at 7700 Alabama Avenue, the same address as the El Paso County GOP headquarters. What's more is that property is owned by Republican County Commissioner Dan Haggerty, brother of GOP state Rep. Pat Haggerty who lost an ugly primary fight with Moody's opponent, Dee Margo.
El Paso County GOP Chairman Michael Moore said the local party rents office space at that address from Dan Haggerty and had nothing to do with the sign. The orange placard is off in the corner, not in front of the GOP's office.
"The party is dead set against that young _ I’ll be nice _ that inexperienced young man who has no business running for any public office," Moore said.
Dan Haggerty said Moody asked if he could put signs up on some of his commercial properties.
"So I gave him a list and I said, 'Sure, put them up,'" he said.
But Dan Haggerty said the signs aren't an endorsement of the Democratic candidate.
He said he's still undecided about the race.
If Margo would have asked to put up signs on his properties, Dan Haggerty said he would have told him yes, too.
"I believe in the two-party system," he said, adding that he has signs for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama in front of his house.

Any truth to the rumor that Mr. Margo was fined by the ethics commission, yet again?
