Several times a year I travel for business, and San Francisco is a regular destination. I love the city itself, the food, the sights, the food, but there is one thing about SF that I can't stand.
For some reason, every wild-eyed crzay, druggie or drunk thinks that I am their pot of gold. I really don't understand how it works, but If I am walking ten blocks, fifteen smelly individuals will approach me looking for money for beer, pizza, fried chicken or chinese food. Why they approach me, and not the lady dressed in the black leather jacket is a mystery. I absolutely do not have the look cpmpassionate human being who would be willing to give up part of his hard earned paycheck to support the drug, alcohol, or pizza habit of some street dweller.
I have come to the conclulsion that these folks have some sort of conservative ESP, and they know by my look that I am voted for Bush. Once their suspicions have been confirmed, they make it their mission to pester me as much as possible.

Perhaps they know your a conservative, and thus, are more likely to have money, because you're successful.
No, perhaps they sense he is a conservative, and therefore compassionate.
Unlike when their "radar" detects a liberal, who wants "somebody else" to give them a dime or a dollar.
