the big, scary black Obama-supporting mugger
ok, i’m quite sure the McCain campaign didn’t set this all up, but they did jump on it immediately and spread it all over the press.
Ashley Todd, a College Republican National Committee volunteer from Texas acting as campaign aid for McCain in Pittsburgh, said she was robbed by the invented black man at an ATM. He returned, she claimed, after noticing her McCain bumper sticker, to tell her, “You’re with the McCain campaign? I’m going to teach you a lesson,” and supposedly carved the letter B in her face with a knife while fondling and roughing her up some more and delivering lines including, “you are going to be a Barack supporter.”
