How long until she demands they give her the money anyway?

She never had it.

Yesterday she said it was locked up safe and sound where nobody could get it

And if they don’t it’s because of racism!

Advertising.

You expect her to use Christian Singles, maybe?

She can’t claim the ticket because there would be an investigation.

There is actually a theory that she has the ticket, bug she is going to wait till the deadline to send someone else to claim the winnings and even that person will give her the money. In this way, she would avoid having to contend with the other McDonalds employees who want a share of the winnings.

Frankly, I don't think she's smart enough to pull off such a scheme and I doubt she ever had the winning ticket. She's not the first to try to get the money without the winning ticket.

There was a winner reported in Baltimore County, and it probably is her. She bought it with money from coworkers at MacDonald’s. Her original story was that the ticket that won wasn’t one of the ones she bought with her coworkers, but one she purchased with her own money. I think she understands that if she cashes it, she’ll have to split it. So now she’s waiting for the hub bub to die down. She’ll probably have a confederate cash it and hope to split it something better than 20-80.

If true, she is a supreme fool.

Yes, but some lawyer who contacted her might.

Yeah, I don’t blame her. $20M is chump change, but $200M, now we’re talking real money!

I’m sure she spends more than $20M a year on her nails. No way she’d even get out of bed for a measly $20M.

If Obama had a daughter who lost a lottery ticket, she would look like her.

The story on her hat is that supposedly it is for a website that was just recently started
http://www.sweetswineporkrinds.com/

Anti Romney.

Notice the site is selling the hat.
