The MoveOn worker who was attacked by Rand Paul supporters has now spoken out about the assault, claiming she was "injured," "in severe shock," and that she has no doubt that the attack was "premeditated."

She also vowed "further legal action."

Lauren Valle, who was dragged to the ground and had her head stepped on during a scuffle outside last night's Kentucky Senate debate, detailed the attack in a conference call with several reporters. She described it as being at least as bad as the footage suggests.

"My memory of it is sort of that of a traumatized person," she said. "I distinctly remember a blow to my head."

According to your reasoning, she should be allowed to rush up to the President without interference. Are you cool with that?

I just went to YouTube to review the video. What I saw yesterday appeared to have been edited to show the man stepping on her twice, and at first glance, it appeared that he was stepping on her head.

Once I watched the video 4 or 5 times, I realized that she had not been "stomped on the head" as the msm claims, but the guy had stepped on her shoulder, helping to keep her on the ground.

Still, the msm is going to be having a field day with this. That awful Ted Knight impersonator was already putting this on the front burner last night, and I'm sure that it will stay there at least through the election, and probably into the next few election cycles as well.

Oops. Getting back to my original point, I felt that she had been assaulted AFTER the threat posed by her had been averted. After repeated viewings of the footage on YouTube, I changed my mind about the "assault."

The question is, why was she disguised in a blond wig?

[who knows what evil?]

"My memory of it is sort of that of a traumatized person," she said. "I distinctly remember a blow to my head."

Quit whining...you approached a candidate for high office wearing a disguise. Oh, you're a woman? So what. You might have been the next 'Squeaky' or Sara Jane, for all we know...

Somebody's sneaker-clad foot hit you in the head?

You're breaking my heart.

“Lauren Valle, who was dragged to the ground...”

She was NOT dragged to the ground. She admitted she tripped.
