Herman Cain Politico: Two women accused Herman Cain of inappropriate behavior.

It all depends on where Cains voters go. I don't see them going to Perry, Bachmann, or even Frothy. Newt will pick some up maybe, and I sure hope we pick a lot up. Then there is still the 20+% undecided and the Indy vote.

Not for me, I see it in the top right hand corner, but not the main story.

Just went up on fox news. If fox throws cain under the bus that's all she wrote.

Don't assume his supporters are going anywhere until Fox start reporting that he is finished like they did with Perry. That's where voters get their direction from. So far they have been defending him as much as possible.

Oh man, this just gets better and better...

 

[Cutlerzzz]

I don't think that the people attracted to Cain are also attracted to Paul. But let's wait to see what happens. I predict that this is just a minor drop for Cain, perhaps just enough for Romney to move back out in front.

Sexual Harassment Claim Against Herman Cain Based on Anonymous Sources

Cain denies report of sexual harassment


Associated Press
Oct 30, 2011

In a statement to The Associated Press, his campaign disputed a Politico report that said Cain had been accused of sexually suggestive behavior toward at least two female employees.

The report said the women signed agreements with the restaurant group that gave them five-figure financial payouts to leave the association and barred them from discussing their departures. Neither woman was identified.

The report was based on anonymous sources and, in one case, what the publication said was a review of documentation that described the allegations and the resolution.

Cain's campaign told the AP that the allegations were not true, and amounted to unfair attacks.

"Inside-the-Beltway media have begun to launch unsubstantiated personal attacks on Cain," spokesman J.D. Gordon said in a written statement. "Dredging up thinly sourced allegations stemming from Mr. Cain's tenure as the Chief Executive Officer at the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, political trade press are now casting aspersions on his character and spreading rumors that never stood up to the facts."

Asked if Cain's campaign was denying the report, Gordon said, "Yes."​

Who cares the motive? That is just their ruse to avoid the allegations. The questions need to be answered, not focusing on diverting to the questioner.

Answer the damn questions, Mr. Cain. You will have to in general.

 

[time4change]

Cain finished. over. done.

I really hope you're right. But this guy is like the teflon don. As far as his supporters are concerned, Cain can do no wrong. They already accept the fact that he supported TARP, is against auditing the Fed, was a lobbyist for restaurants and big tobacco, and gave the economy a clean bill of health back in September of 2008. I'm not sure if a couple of sexual harassment cases are gonna be enough to convince them otherwise.

They seem to truly believe he is a rebel being unfairly attacked by the "liberal" media. A few comments from that article:

I see Politico is still on it's mission to re elect Barack Obama. Guess they have nothing nothing better than headlining anti Cain stories while sweeping like manics to keep fast and furious under the radar.

oh wow, Clarence Thomas all over again. How about two guys accusing Obummer of inaproppriate behavior?????Where were you libs on that story?? Larry Sinclair's book??? If you play this game let's play Obummer's too... Ok. You miserable lib writers, we don't even know yet where Obummer was born, or how he did in school and where he got his SSI number???? How about a little research there???

Please....this story doesn't come close in significance when it's compared to a sitting president copping BJs in the Oval Office. More drivel from the liberal pond scum attack and smear lame stream media.

What does this have to do with liberals and conservatives, Herman? This goes far beyond that. And besides, these kinds of allegations happen to both sides, and if it turns out to be true, it's bad news all around, regardless of party.

 

[Oddone]

Oh... Geraldo ate him alive... This is going to destroy Cain at this rate. GG no RE indeed..

 

[fearthereaperx]

look at his facebook, all the comments are very positive and supportive of him.

This is not going to stop Cain.

 

[Kords21]

When some reporter tracks down the people involved, Cain is finished. As I said in an earlier posting, if there's a paper/money trail in all of this, some reporter will find it. Cain and deflect and deny all he wants, but money talks.

Oh brother this comment really pisses me of

Gee, Politico releases this tonight when he is scheduled to speak in front of National Press Club tomorrow. What a coincidence.

Hint to Politico: I. Do. Not. Care. All I care about is having someone run the country who knows economics, loves the nation, and will defend her people.

That idiot thinks that Herman Cain knows economics, loves the nation, and will defend her people?

I'm not encouraged that his numbers are going to go down much after looking at the comments on that site. He has a pretty hardcore base... somehow.
