One step forward 3 steps back.

As super-delegates bleed away like a gaping wound, Hillary makes huge strides with a stunning performance on O'Riley.

Then we find out that the ads she's running in Indiana with excerpts from a speech of her blaming the move of Indiana defense manufacturing Company Magnaquench to China on George Bush were, not only false, but actually something that Bill Clinton was responsible for, and George Soros helped to finance.

The worst part is that the average american may not be aware of this but the Hoosiers immediately knew it was a blatant lie.  She even called the president of the company before making the speech, and he told her that her facts were wrong.  He told her that it was her husband that was responsible for approving the move.  She flat-out chose to lie anyway.

There is speculation that this report is the catalyst for some super-delegates to re-evaluate their decision to support her, and others to switch sides.

Clinton Decries China's Acquisition of Indiana Company -- Ignoring Her Husband's Role in the Sale

As she campaigns throughout Indiana, Sen. Hillary Clinton has been talking quite a bit about Magnequench, a Valparaiso, Ind., factory that moved to China.

"We've got to elect a president next January who's going to remember Magnequench," Clinton told voters in Valparaiso on April 12.

It seems, however, that when it comes to Magnequench there's quite a bit that Clinton has conveniently forgotten.

Watch "World News with Charles Gibson" TONIGHT at 6:30 p.m. ET for the full report.

"We went to Valparaiso," Clinton told voters in Princeton, Ind., last night, "where there used to be a plant called Magnequench that made the magnets that helped to guide the precision-guided missiles, the so-called smart bombs. You've seen those — they take off, they go down the chimney, they were incredibly sophisticated and these magnets, you know — not the kind you put on the refrigerator, like we all do — but these really sophisticated magnets were instrumental making that happen."

What Clinton doesn't tell voters is that Magnequench was originally sold to Chinese interests during her husband's administration, which okayed the move despite concerns about national security and eventual job loss. Experts say the Chinese acquired the "technical sophistication" that created the magnets long before George W. Bush took office.

Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind,, Clinton's top surrogate in the state, often joins her on the stump in bashing the president for allowing Magnequench to move abroad. What Bayh doesn't tell voters these days is that he has blamed the company's moving on a 1995 decision made by Clinton's husband's administration.

Andy Albers, a former vice president of Magnequench, said he received a phone call from Clinton's campaign to go over key details of Clinton's Valparaiso event before it happened on April 12.

"I told them all the truth, but it didn't go anywhere," Albers told ABC News. "Evan Bayh and Hillary Clinton are living in some false reality here, making all these false accusations."

In Piittsburgh on April 14, Clinton told voters that "not only did the jobs go to China, but so did the intellectual property and the technological know-how to make those magnets."

Albers says no secrets or intellectual property transferred to China when Magnequench moved in 2003, despite the claims of these politicians.

"Right here, over 200 Hoosiers built parts that guided our military's smart bombs to their targets....George Bush could have stopped it, but he didn't," Clinton says in a TV ad airing in Indiana, presumably referring to the president's ability to use the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), an interagency board chaired by the Secretary of the Treasury responsible for analyzing national security implications when foreign entities take over domestic companies.

Sorry.  You're right.  I must have mis-spoke.

If I shoot and kill someone, can I claim that I "mis-shot?"
