KDKA of Pittsburgh reportsthat according to local police, the McCain workerwho claimed to have been attacked for her political convictions just confessed to making up the story.
Yesterday, FOX News Vice President John Moody wrote: “If the incident turns out to be a hoax, Sen. McCain’s quest for the presidency is over, forever linked to race-baiting.”
I guess the race is over.
UPDATE: My TWI colleague Matt DeLong smartly ties this story to the case of [Charles Stuart](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Stuart_(murderer)), who in 1989 murdered his pregnant wife and heightened racial tension by blaming a nonexistent black man. Obviously, the scale is very different here, but the comparison is still apt.
Also, KDKA reports that according to a Pittsburgh police commander, Ashley Todd will be facing charges.
