Any updates on supposed republicans slashing tires of Obama supporters at early voting?

A few days ago there were reports that 30 cars had their tires slashed at an early voting site in Flordia. Apparently only Obama supporters cars were targeted.

Also, at an Obama rally in Fayetteville NC, again 30 cars had their tires slashed.

Unfortunately I have been unable to find any updated news on these incidents. Suspects talked to? Suspects caught? Zero follow up after initial reports. Anyone here have any updates?

It seems odd that two places seperated by many miles both magically had 30 cars affected.

This is new. Normally, Democrats slash tires, spray bleach in faces, break in and vandalize, rob, beat up and spray paint republican property. This smells of a set up

These reports are the equivelant of flu shots for the democrats, intended to dilute the impact of the reports of real violence their stormtroopers commit later.

IIRC, both stories turned out to be complete fabrications...

Yea right... Republicans have jobs and don’t have time to play games like this. Almost every instance I’ve heard of things like this in the primaries and past elections, it was always dems doing it to themselves for attention. That, or stupid kids.

Wish you or someone else had some stories to link to showing them to be hoaxes.

Normally the tires are slashed with good Teamster Goons using ice picks or good old pocket knifes..

Hmmm...somehow I find it hard to picture young Republican hoodlums, switchblade in hand slashing tires. It's like...like, wingtip shoes at a beach party. No way.

Lots of stuff going on. Obama supporters tried to burn down a house that had McCain Signs in SW Columbus, Ohio.

Betcha a dollar to a doughnut that those acts of vandalism were perpetrated by Obama supporters trying to besmirch the McCain campaign. That’s just not the kind of thing conservatives do, but liberals have a track record of doing these things.

Laughs!...How could they tell who owned what cars? I know bumper stickers, but..unless...unless it is not always like it appears. Some Libs have sacrificed their own cars for the good of the cause!!!

Talked to a good friend of mine today. She was leaving a Columbus, OH mall today and had a McCain/Palin sticker on her car. A car with loud rap music pulled up beside her and leaning out of the car started chanting and screaming “OBAMA, OBAMA” all the while beating on the side of their car and staring at her. As she got through the light, they fell in behind her and got as close to her bumper as they could, jerking their car back and forth. Fortunately, they turned and did not pursue her any further.

Somehow I kinda doubt they're gonna even bother to vote.
