Not voting for anyone with ads that have menacing voice-overs

The Republican ads have voice-overs that sound like cheap hoods hiding in alleys threatening business owners unless they pay protection money. Who the hell buys into that kind of fear? Some guy came in my Dad's store in the 1950's and hinted he wanted protection money. My Dad told him to get the hell out or he'd throw him out.
The hood said, 'You t'reatenin' me?' And my Dad said, 'No, I'm telling you-get the hell out of my store before I punch you.'
The guy left and never came back. So on election day-throw the bums out. Anybody who uses fear to get your vote, doesn't deserve your vote.
