Yet another Republican trying to *scare* people into turning against Obama.
What kind of message does that send? To these kids & to the country?
Coverage of this story on Fox (of all places):
I wonder if that woman really thought she was going to "win over" some votes for McCain via these tactics... I mean, did she really think this was a good idea?
Do you?

Coverage of this story on Fox (of all places):
GROSSE POINTE FARMS, Mich. — A suburban Detroit woman has decided to scare up the vote among neighborhood children by just offering treats to John McCain supporters.
Shirley Nagel of Grosse Pointe Farms, Mich., handed out candy Friday only to those who shared her support for the Republican presidential candidate and his running mate Sarah Palin. Others were turned away empty-handed.
TV station WJBK says a sign outside Nagel's house warned: "No handouts for Obama supporters, liars, tricksters or kids of supporters."
Nagel calls Democrat Barack Obama "scary."
When asked about children who were turned away empty-handed and crying, she said: "Oh well. Everybody has a choice."

The only reason why I say the candy one is worse is because there is no reason to treat children like that based on what their parents believe... that's not going to teach them anything good. AND children will look at the Palin effigy and not see it as anything more than a halloween trick...something that makes sense with the holiday. Refusing to give a kid candy is not something they would understand.
One is an expression of one's own personal beliefs and the other is vindictive against the innocent. One disturbs me way more than the other.
