The Vera Baker story rapidly fades away

By Pablo Fanque

The "investigation about an alleged rumor," as Mark Ambinder of The Atlantic quoted Slate's John Dickerson, appears to have hit a dead end, and the story and rumors are rapidly running out of gas, despite the semi-respectable Enquirer's efforts to keep the story alive.  It appears that the birthers and teabagger/tea partiers are trying to keep the story alive, but the absence of even a shred of evidence makes that rather difficult.

The Drudge Report moved the story toward the middle of the page last night, and today, pushed it off their main page entirely.  A story too flimsy for Matt Drudge?  Doesn't that pretty much tell you all you need to know?   If it's too flimsy for Drudge, you can bet you can't even blow your nose with this one.
