I did a little TIGER replacement after the license bot tore through things. Mostly in LA and a little in Texas. I converted entire counties at a time to OSM format using my own ogr2osm translation[1] but I only imported one or two neighborhoods at a time. Doing anything on a county-wide basis would probably be a little more involved because any highways that run through the area might be in route relations even if their geometry hasn't been edited. Also, it would be harder to spot the inevitable TIGER anomalies that I was able to see and fix by hand when I was doing a neighborhood at a time. Things like ogr2osm creating overlapping ways when TIGER had two different names for a street. But at the end of the day it is probably doable :)
