O'Donnell Didn't Attend Claremont, Either

Latest fudge on educational record.

Third lie's the charm. Following revelations that Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell in fact did not attend Oxford University (as she falsely stated on her LinkedIn profile) and attained an undergraduate degree from Fairleigh Dickinson University several years after she claimed she did, comes yet another fib. Talking Points Memo has learned that O'Donnell did not attend Claremont Graduate University, which she lists under the education section on her LinkedIn profile. School spokesperson Rod Leveque said, "Claremont Graduate University has no student or education record for an individual named Christine O'Donnell." Rather, O'Donnell was the recipient of a fellowship at the Claremont Institute, a conservative think tank unaffiliated with the university but one with a similar name and located in the same city (maybe she got confused?).
