Walking down memory lane: You heard the story -- it was all over the right-wing blogs. Some poor white girl, 20-year-old Ashley Todd of Texas, was mugged at an ATM, but when the mugger (a big black guy) saw her car with the McCain sticker, he beat her and carved a letter "B" in her face with a knife. Apparently it was a dyslexic mugger because the "B" was carved backward, but whatever -- it proved that Obama's supporters were violent and craaazy! ... The story was instantly suspect, as the pictures of her supposed beating, her Twitter account, and her timelines all patently contradicted themselves. But the wingnutosphere, with the healthy assist from Fox News, piled on anyway, letting their ideological blinders get in the way of reality. As usual. And now they look like idiots. As usual. As for Ms. Ashley Todd, being a liar and race-baiter is par for the course for College Republicans.

Jim, Moonbeam is leading Meg in the CA gubernatorial race, and Boxer is ahead of Carly in the race for Senate. Maybe Ted and Bentway will finally return ... nah, they never put their money where their mouths are ... When you were a kid, did you use to tattle tale on the other kids? Just askin'.
