The Herman Cain-Ginger White Saga

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: We haven't even touched it yet. I have a couple thoughts on this Herman Cain, the latest Herman Cain babe, just based on what's been reported. Now, for the record, and according to the original news report on Ginger White's accusations, here's what we know. She filed a sexual harassment claim against an employer in 2001. That case was settled, although the news reports never mentioned how or in whose favor. It appears she might have lost since the settlement does not seem to have helped her finances since then. She also had a bankruptcy 23 years ago. Ginger White also has had a number of eviction notices over the past six years.

The most recent happened this month, although she says in interview that she never been evicted. Ginger White was also sued by former business partner who also sought a stalking temporary protective order against her for repeated e-mail and texts; and another business partner (it might be the same base partner) said, "I never heard her mention Herman Cain's name. In all these years that I've known her, she's never mentioned Herman Cain's name." Again, she was sued by a former business partner who sought a stalking temporary protective order against her for repeated e-mails and texts. That case was dismissed, but it was followed by a libel lawsuit from her partner which White lost because she didn't show up to fight it.

But the news media are only too happy to accept such a questionable woman as a reliable source if she can help them bring down a Republican. Meanwhile, this interview with Stephanopoulos. Stephanopoulos did not argue with her about whether Cain would make a good president. It's big news that Ginger White says, "I don't think he'd be a good president," but we know that Stephanopoulos believes that Bill Clinton made a great president, and Bill Clinton is still the grand Pooh-Bah when it comes to all this kind of stuff and he made a great president. Ginger White says, "I don't think Herman Cain would be a good president," and Stephanopoulos did not question that. But even if all of these accusations against Herman Cain are proved to be true, Herman Cain has a long way to go to match Bill Clinton's record.

In fact, Bill Clinton was even said to be the first black president. He's done it all! Also note how once again the 60 -- there are somehow 60 -- texts between Ginger White and Herman Cain are trotted out as the only proof of their close relationship. Even though this woman has been accused of stalking via repeated e-mails and texts by other people. Now, I don't know about you. I haven't been able to find how many of these texts are from White to Cain or from Cain to White. I don't know who's texting who here. Have they made this clear yet in any of this? I haven't seen it. Are they unable to count them? And where is any documentation, any other proof of their relationship other than these texts?

I mean, you would think that after a 13- or 14-year affair there'd have to be a blue dress or something tangible out there she could produce to document her claims of such a long-term sexual affair. Also this lady says it took place at the Ritz-Carlton Buckhead, and at the Four Seasons restaurant, which Herman likes. He lives in Atlanta! They walk into a hotel, you go up the elevators for 13 years -- or five, however many years -- involving the Buckhead Ritz-Carlton? Somebody in there is gonna see this, even if you're going up by yourself, you know, "Oh, there's Herman Cain! Yeah, he lives here in Atlanta. Yeah, he's taking the elevator up to the fourth floor or tenth whatever it is. What's going on up there? The Restaurant Association doesn't have a meeting."

I don't know. These are just my first thoughts. Regardless, the media believed that they have accomplished their mission to kill the Cain campaign -- and I don't know, they may be right. 'Cause you know what they know? They don't have to prove any actual wrongdoing anymore. They don't have to prove that. All they have to do is create enough doubt about the candidate in the minds of his donors and then the money stops, and that's it. It's all they have to do. The campaign will die, and when you don't even question the credibility of the sources, this is easy as pie to do! Stop and think: You know, Herman Cain was going through colon cancer treatment during some of these 13 years. (sigh)

This woman said she finally came out 'cause she got fed up with the way the sexual harassment babes were being treated. I said, "What? Three weeks after the sexual harassment babes you come out and say you're engaged in a 13-year affair with the guy?" You have to assume you love the guy, you have to send there some sort of emotional connection. Maybe not love but there's gotta be some sort of emotional connection, and these sexual harassment babes come forward and you don't like the way they're demonized so you now come out? Herman didn't demonize 'em, did he? Herman didn't demonize the sexual harassment babes. One of the sexual harassment babes refused to show up and be in a panel with the other two sexual harassment babes -- and, by the way, where are the details of the sexual harassment babes?

They came and they're gone. Where is their evidence? Do you realize there still isn't any evidence of this. (interruption) But what? (interruption) I know. Where there's smoke, there are two media people rubbing sticks together. Where there's smoke, there's fire. I know. This Ginger White said she can't "image," I think she meant "imagine." She couldn't "image" waking up one morning and deciding to come out with this if it wasn't true. Even though she'd been convicted of libel. This woman's been convicted of libel, but she can't imagine waking up and deciding to come out with this; and she talks to George Stephanopoulos who ran Clinton's war room, the bimbo eruptions and so forth.

"I want something to shut up the media no matter whom they find next."

Ok, then make a joke website where we can all go and claim that we all had affairs with Herman Cain. Our cat's too!

I know freepers could have a ball with that one! I wonder how many Cain supporters would jump on board? Could end up with thousands. Or not. Just a thought.

[Political Junkie Too]

Unfortunately, their helping her with her rent only gives some people more concern over Herman's credibility. Why would he give her any money?

Because Christians / Baptists do that? Those who are well-off help the needy?

[Houghton M.]

One slight problem with your reasoning. If Obama’s guys truly want to have Romney to run against, by destroying Cain now they help make Romney’s nomination LESS likely.

Romney needs to have the Not-Romney vote split between at least two, preferably three, Not-Romneys.

If they pick off all the Not-Romneys one by one, as they have done and Romney hast to to head-to-head with a Not-Romney,
it
don’t
matter
who
the
Not-Romney is.

The Not-Romney wins.

So, if Axelpoop’s goal is to get Romney nominated, they are shooting themselves in the foot by destroying Cain now. They may get Not-Romney as a result.

[beandog]

Sorry, but what other women has Mr. Cain been accused of financially helping?

[muawiyah]

ALL of the Republicans, TEA Partiers and Conservatives must defend all of the candidates against David Axelrod's scurrilous attacks.

They are not only not terribly worked out they tend to have bizarre sexual outcomes.

I know, I know, it's real easy to say David Axelrod is a sexual pervert, but he has to be.

This latest deal has a woman with a weight lifting female business partner ~ or whatever! This is like a carnival. Then, there's that one ol'gal who LOST a paternity suit.

Think about that a moment, this woman who is telling us the details of a groping encounter at one of Washington DC's busier intersections downtown (where there IS NO PARKING ALLOWED) couldn't remember who the baby-daddy was!!!!!

Just Like WOW!!!!

Don't we know that TV show.

More seriously, the young woman who was the spokeslady for the Elian Kidnapping had to have some sort of arrangement with the top end guy to get that position ~ that was back in April 2000. Bill was just then passing into political oblivian ~ so one last lick.

The problem is inescapable.

None of the women are credible, but they so lack in credibility that it is difficult to believe that the coordinator of the attacks is sane!

[ROCKLOBSTER]

"I want something to shut up the media no matter whom they find next." ...Ok, then make a joke website where we can all go and claim that we all had affairs with Herman Cain.

Lady, I like the way you think.

Please do it.

[Houghton M.]

If, on the other hand, they feared Cain a lot because he’s black and fear Romney as a general-all-around competent, savvy, etc. etc. (I know, I know, Freepers don’t like him but we’re talking general electorate here—in a normal, close election, conservatives holding out on Romney could doom him but in a really anti-Obama landslide, Romney might survive the loss of a good bit of the conservative base and that might be how Alexpoop sees it), they they kill two birds with one stone by taking Cain out now rather than later.

They (1) get rid of a black rival to Obama, securing the black vote without which they cannot win, and

(2) they get rid of Romney by ending the splitting of the Not-Romney Republican primary vote so they end up facing Gingrich or Perry or ???

That would better explain the undoing of Cain as originating with the Obama thugs and why they had to do it now, rather than waiting.

[muawiyah]

Steyn let his Bigot Side out yesterday didn’t he.

[moose-matson]

The generosity of the Cain's [both he and his wife] to help this women has been rewarded as usual.

_________________________________________

What is your source for the statement that Cain's wife knew about White and, according to you, contributed to her welfare?

[Kit cat]

YOUR WIFE IS LETTING THE MEDIA AND CHICAGO STYLE POLITICS
SUCCEED!!!! If they are succeeding with us this country is DOOMED!!!!!
We are the ones who are supposed to KNOW just how EVIL our opponents are, and yet our side DOUBTS Cain. Again we are DOOMED!!!

[OrioleFan]

Got to shake Herman Cain’s hand in Dayton, OH today. His speech didn’t sound like he was getting out. I wished him luck and told him to stay in.

[miss marmelstein]

Yup. Something about black conservative candidates really outs the bigots.

[DJlaysitup]

So, if Axelpoop’s goal is to get Romney nominated, they are shooting themselves in the foot by destroying Cain now. They may get Not-Romney as a result.

Yeah...as much as I'd like to blame this on the Dems, it doesn't make sense. Plus, if they had this stuff on Cain they would save it for use in the general election if they were up against him.

I really think this is the RINO establishment going after Cain to hold on to their control of the party.

[Political Junkie Too]

Sorry, but what other women has Mr. Cain been accused of financially helping?

There were some posts yesterday about a Cain volunteer named Lolly Winne who reported on a campaign conference call with Cain. In her statement that she posted on Facebook, she said:

So being the good man that he is, Mr. Cain helped her out financially as a FRIEND, as he has done for other friends in the past.

As far as I can tell, that was the only reference to Cain helping others financially in the past. Cain is a Baptist, and an associate minister in his church. It does not surprise me that someone as well-off as a former CEO and who is active in his church would directly help others who are needy.

[antceecee]

“My dog Sparky humped Cain’s foot at a Tea Party rally!

That makes sense to me...plus it would explain all the contacts within the last few months. She was probably desperate and had likely wore out hre welcome with other friends or family. She had probably been successful in the past by simply hounding decent people with her sob stories until they finally gave her some money so she would leave them alone.

[chris37]

Let me take a wild guess here...

You’re a female.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I saw Herman on Cavuto and I’m just not buying this 13 year affair deal. I think the poor guy is being borked and if this one doesn’t do it they will bring another bimbo forward next week.

[MWestMom]

They’ve pulled out one bimbo too many for me. Might have sustained the doubt with the first two; but now it’s just getting ridiculous.

Oh how it stings that the nasty political machine still believes that most Americans are “stoopid.” : )

[Paperdoll]

Someone around here said they thought one of her racist or leftist relative may have pput her up to it. We can fall into the trap the media sets for us and waste our good time speculating about something that never happened, or we can help bolster the support for the man with the courage, high values,and principles and skills we so desperatrly need today.

The devil uses his lies to distract us, and we fooloishly comply! No wonder we are in such a mess!

Go Herman Cain!
