Karl Rove said Monday that Herman Cain has failed to properly respond to the POLITICO report that at least two women accused him of inappropriate behavior, saying he needs to say “yes or no.”
“He’s not denying, but he ain’t responding and that’s not the best place to be,” Rove said on Fox News. “If these allegations are not true, say they aren’t true and put it behind you. If not, better get everything out sooner rather than later because in a situation like this, if there is something there, that something’s going to come out.” Continue Reading Text Size

Asked whether he considered the Cain campaign’s response to the allegations as sufficient, the former George W. Bush strategist answered “no,” criticizing the decision to evade questions about whether there were ever any financial settlements with the women.
“I think Geraldo had it right last night — you simply can’t say go talk to the National Restaurant Association and refuse to answer the question, ‘Were there any monetary settlements involved in these things.....’”
Rove added, “You can’t simply say go ask, go talk to somebody else. You either need to say yes or no. And if no, say no immediately. Say absolutely or not and get on with it. But if you’re sitting there saying go talk to somebody else, it’s not going to help you.”

You decide by these quotes.
Is this a joke? Karl Rove needs to STFU. I cant believe it. I see his mug on TV one more time, Im kicking it in.... grrrr
Rove’s dirty tactics have backfired and only served to make Cain’s support even stronger.
Cain has already said it is not true. Rove ought to know this. So why is he harassing Cain about it?
Typical Establishment RINO.
The “fix is in” They wanted Romney...they will make it so!
Shut up Karl.
how does one go about contacting Rove, anyone???
Karl, take your chalk board and go home.
Rove is real a piece of work. Establishment jerk. I trust that guy about as far as I can throw a fit.
With “friends” like Rove & the National Review who needs enemies? Whether you like Cain as a candidate or not (I do) we should be circling the wagons and calling out the blatantly unfair attack by Politico using vague charges and anonymous sources. Instead we get these thinly veiled attacks on Cain from those claiming to be conservatives.
I’ve come to really dislike this overfed gnome. And you’re right, this has Rove’s stinky smell all over it.
Shame that this “man” will not be properly dealt with.
tonight on Bill O'R. show he had a shitty grin, that I would have loved to slap off his fat little cheeks, so I just turned the channel, then turned TV off until Greta came on..she did a great interview with Herman Cain..
The media in this country has really hit their lowest key for me...we MUST vote Obama and his gang OUT in Nov. 2012..
F Karl Rove.
Question to Karl Rove, yes or no. Have you quit having anal sex?
So, Rove now works for Politico. Can’t say I’m surprised.
No they won’t. Moderate Dems are going to Romney. That was the lefts strategy all along. That is now in serious danger. Cain is under attack because Romney might just lose and that leaves Obama in the wind.
Rove you
