..... people think Rick Perry was drunk when he made that bizarre speech in New Hampshire the other night.”

Well that’s another thing. Does ole Herb jog? Rick Perry jogs. I have never seen Rick take a drink. Maybe he does, but it sure as heck never got him tied up with a sexual harrassment scandal that cost anybody $35,000, with two other women coming out with complaints. And Rick Perry was not stuck in corporate world, but out front for ten years. Forget it. Rick was drunk with enthusiasm and had a blast in the NH appearance. The standing ovation at the end of his speech was not for his chug a lug ability.

Perry has drunk eyes and a drunk’s demeanor. I’m a self-made expert in this area. Not a darn thing wrong with Cain.

No sexual harassment has been established. Not yet, anyway. What we have is women who received severance packages and a lot of speculation about why.

You do realize, don't you, that a severance package of $35,000 indicates only one thing -- that *nothing* happened. That a disgruntled or unstable employee was causing trouble (like leveling false accusations of harassment or discrimination) and the organization saved itself hundreds of thousands of dollars in court fees by buying her off.

If there was really any sexual harassment, the women would have walked away with hundreds of thousands -- if not millions -- of dollars, and NRA would have dumped Cain immediately as a huge financial liability. But none of that happened....

According to the host of the event in N.H. where Perry spoke, Governor Perry had not had anything to drink except water. Those wanting to believe the worst of Perry should read the article here or watch the video: http://foxnewsinsider.com/2011/11/02/man-who-hosted-nh-event-says-rick-perry-was-sober-when-he-delivered-speech/

I have not decided how I will vote, but the Perry haters who are posting such hateful unsubstantiated comments have caused me to take a more thorough look at Perry's record, and I find much to agree with.

I think Mr. Cain's campaign manager is not doing him any favors. I thought it was bad judgment for Mr. Cain to say in September that 'he would be happy to serve on Romney's staff if he got the nomination, or he could serve with others, but he would never serve with Rick Perry.' I lost some respect for Mr. Cain at that time. I think he is a very likeable man, but from his answers to questions regarding foreign affairs, he is sorely lacking knowledge. Unfortunately, he is responsible for all the hullabaloo surrounding him now. Regardless if the allegations made against him are false, he knew they had been made, and he didn't tell the truth when POLITICO reported it. He has consistently altered his story, and to blame the Perry campaign without proof puts him on a par with the women who made accusations against him. As far as the public knows, his charges against Perry are "baseless".
