We're used to seeing political signs and advertisements close to election time.

But the latest way to show support for your favorite presidential candidate is with T-shirts bearing catchy slogans like, "Barack the Vote" and "Hillary's My Homegirl."

“That's their way of reaching out to the younger generations," said Hooverson Heights resident Sean Snyder.

Stores in the Ohio Valley are even cashing in on the heated race. Screen printing shop “Stuff With Attitude” in Weirton has novelty T-shirts hanging right in its Main Street storefront.

"I don't think people should make money off them. I think they should give them away for free," said Richard Miller of Hooverson Heights.

But others said the T-shirts popping up all over the Web and in the Valley will help draw younger people to politics.

"Anything you can do to get them involved would be a good thing I think," said Miller.

“Hillary's How I Roll” and “Can You Smell What Barack is Cooking” are just some of the slogans on T-shirts for sale.

Eighteen-year-old Stephanie Fyock said she wouldn't wear the novelty tees, but she doesn't have a problem with them.

"I think to each his own," said Fyock.

It's not just Democratic supporters cashing in with the goods. John McCain's name is popping up on T-shirts and coffee mugs too, with more conservative logos and slogans.

Former Brooke County resident Twila Harris has seen freshman and sophomore high school students sporting the tees, but she said she thinks they need to learn to look at the issues, not the message on a T-shirt.

"I think a T-shirt can be a novelty thing, but how long does a novelty thing last?" she asked.
