I'm starting to feel pity for McCain.

With supporters like these, who needs opponents?

Young woman claims that after being mugged at an ATM, her black assailant saw the McCain sticker on her car and carved a B onto her face.

Michelle Malkin, among others, start raising questions.

Turns out she made it all up, and is claiming it's because she has psych issues--and is upset it became big news.

Fox's VP isn't happy.

Editor and Publisher has a nice roundup.

Meanwhile, a campaign worker for the Obama campaign actually WAS assaulted, the attacker is under investigation and admitted to the assault, and the national media ... said nothing.

Police investigate political confrontation

CALEDONIA, Wis. - Police in Caledonia say they're investigating a weekend attack on a Barack Obama campaign worker.

Nancy Takehara tells WISN-TV she drove from Chicago to help canvass a neighborhood in Caledonia Saturday on behalf of the Democratic presidential nominee.

Ronald Goetsch says he had a heated verbal exchange with Takehara over allegations of voter improprieties in other states and the role of voter registration groups and asked her numerous times to leave his property.

Takehara says Goetsch grabbed her by the back of the neck and was pounding her head and screaming.

Goetsch tells The Journal Times in Racine that he did pull the woman's hair and regrets his actions.

Police say their report on the incident will be forwarded to the Racine County District Attorney's office when it's complete.

That's because Takehara doesn't sound like a "real American" name, and she's working for that terrorist, to boot.

His own words:

If the incident turns out to be a hoax, Senator McCain’s quest for the presidency is over, forever linked to race-baiting.

Come now, Mr. Moody. McCain's campaign was over well before this incident.

Plus she's from Chicago and that isn't part of "Real America."

Damnit. I wish I'd posted on this. My bull**** detector went off the scale when I read the story this morning.

To reiterate: male attackers do not cut the hair of their female victims. They do not draw symbols or words on their female victims. Females faking attacks do these things.

When I heard about this I thought it strange to scratch a letter in someone's face. But I didn't think about it enough to really suspect it.

This is a well-known phenomenon, by the way. Police are taught that when a female victim presents with these types of claims they are most likely faking.

The cops never believed it.

To be fair, the national media is ignoring the dirty tricks the Pelosi campaign is carrying out against the Sheehan campaign as well.

Sheehan is a loon. She was raving about catching someone bugging her phone at her hotel during the DNC. When she has those kinds of credibility issues, it's natural the media will ignore it.
