Is there any evidence that the "whisper campaign" against McCain in South Carolina is anything other than an urban legend?

The exit polling data from the time says that people who voted Bush were voting on issues (they wanted lower taxes) and the people who voted McCain were voting for the person with the best qualifications. (McCain's issue was Campaign Finance Reform, which people didn't care much about).

McCain got 98% of the voters whose #1 issue was military service, but only 4% of the voters had military service as their # 1 issue.

I'd like to know this myself. My gf, God love her, comes from a union Democrat family and up to this point has gotten all of her news from CNN and the like. She's among those who think there was some conspiracy to oust McCain in SC. If you find anything, could you drop me a line? Thanks.
