A tornado spins regarless of whether it is being hit by lighting. Lightning will not affect a tornado in any observable way. The lightning itself will not spin, but the plasma may be swept along by the wind. If the linking has multiple strokes, it may appear to consist of several parallel bolts in a phenomenon called ribbon lighting, which occurs when lightning strikes in the presense of strong winds.
