ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - The spokeswoman for Republican gubernatorial candidate John Dendahl's campaign was in critical condition Thursday after she was severely beaten in a bank parking lot, officials said.

Paige McKenzie was attacked Wednesday evening in Bernalillo, just north of Albuquerque. Her vehicle was on a jack and its spare tire was out when emergency workers found her, police Chief Fred Radosevich said.

Dendahl said a friend of McKenzie's told him she recognized the assailant, but she did not provide a name.

2. Party affiliation means nothing here.

I feel terrible for Mrs. McKenzie and hope she will recover fully. And with any luck the idiot who did it will get thrashed within an inch of his life his first day in prison. :(

She's able to provide that name ASAP before the scumbag who attacked her is able to get too far away.
