How do we know she is really a McCain supporter? Maybe she’s a nObama suporter that’s trying to make the GOP look bad.


That’s what I’m starting to think.......

She’s 20, just like that kid who hacked Palin’s email.

Is there anyway to prove she was with the McCain camp?

How do we know she wasn’t FORCED by the Obama campaign to do this.


Or BOUGHT OFF! I’m sure there’s plenty of money in the Obama camp to seduce a young girl.
I wonder if the MSM media will vet her like they did Joe the Plumber. This will be the litmus test; will they just continue to call her the McCain supporter? OR will they find out all her tax records and where she attended church, who her first crush was etc...
If the story doesn’t die, and we DON’T have details on her then we know she was a plant, based on how the MSM reports this.

She will go down in tabloid annals as an oddity like this one:

I have to learn to be more skeptical of damsels in distress.

BTW--I apologized to you on the other thread.

Duke Lacrosse comes to mind - “SOMETHING” happened to that poor girl.

My thoughts exactly! I don’t care if she was a member of College Republicans. A person can keep up a farce for a long time if they think it will “make a difference” in the end. I really don’t think she was trying to help McCain. And I don’t think she (or anyone) is stupid enough to believe this would not start a polical firestorm. I just wonder if she’s really an Obama supporter. This hoax story certainly doesn’t hurt him. It reflects badly on the GOP. I don’t believe for one minute that the Obama campaign put her up to this, but I don’t think she’s a misguided McCain supporter either.

this kind of bid for attention, one that includes self-mutilation, does not necessarily mean that nothing happened

Yeah, and the fact that people perpetrate UFO hoaxes doesn't necessarily mean that there are no real aliens visiting us. So?

I must say: I am not amused by the rough-and-tumble of some bloggers. For example, Matt Drudge, who first broke this story yesterday, just wrote to my blog saying “It’s false! HA-HAA-HAA-HA-HAAAHH.

Is this kindergarten or what?

Yes, it is. That would be Drudge the gossip columnist alrighty. He has this story at the top right now. It sure is important to excoriate a kid with emotional problems. I guess the "Plumber Asked a Question" debacle has run out of steam.

Actually, this girl IS a victim of the Obama thugs. She has been bombarded with 24/7 lies from the media about how anyone supporting McCain is a racist. This girl obviously reached a critical point where she felt helpless against the CultOfObama and felt the need to do something drastic. See, she is a victim....

Folks: This is not good. American v American in a race war, a class war, a gender war even while jihad has been declared against America? Forget about all the voting fraud allegations and the chaos at the polls: Do we all have to get guns? Will we need the National Guard to protect us when we vote? Or to walk voters home?

We're going to need the National Guard to calm down the 200,000 Chicagoans attending the Obama victory celebration -- when he loses.

Conversely, we will need more than the national guard to calm 50 million armed and angry conservatives if Obama, ACORN, and the Media, et. al., succeed in their attempt to steal this election.

I wouldn’t put anything passed that thug and his ilk. Be that as it may it makes the McCain people look bad.

no, it makes this girl look nuts....she is so far from the top of any McCain chain of command as to be invisible...which is probably why she did it....to get noticed.

I think it might be possible that the girl thought she'd cook up this story and get some sympathy and attention from her friends, without realizing that it would become a huge, international story.

Naive, but that isn't uncommon among 20 YO's.
