Associated Press-ing for Kerry

Read this caption from the Associated Press, which accompanies a picture on the website of The MetroWest Daily News this morning.

Now look at the picture in question:




I'm no expert in the field of footwear (or signage), but those look like flip-flops to me - not exactly what I would describe as a "Kerry sign". I see nothing in that picture that would demonstrate support for John Kerry's candidacy. Why would the AP caption that picture to imply there were both Bush supporters and Kerry supporters present at the time?

Just askin'.
