Hey! Here’s a great election trick that every conservative candidate should know:

Last year the US House candidacy of GOP former Stanislaus County Clerk and anti-abortion activist Karen Mathews Davis gained national attention when she claimed to have gotten death threats from anonymous writers who threatened to shoot her and her husband in the head if she didn’t withdraw from the race.

While the feds investigated, Davis told the local press that wasn’t going to “give in to terrorism” and that “if those people weren’t able to stop me from doing the right thing, then Obama and Pelosi don’t have a prayer.” Today Davis has been charged with lying to the FBI after confessing that she made it all up.
