A complete non-story. Clinton was accused of RAPE and it was covered up by the media. This was before he was elected president. Does the name Paula Jones ring a bell.
Obama admitted snorting cocaine. This was barely reported by the media. Google the name Larry Sinclair and see what he says about Obama. This story also didn’t get the light of day when the Manchurian Candidate was running for president.
We do not believe anything they have to say about it.
Now, go back and squeal with your little girlfriends and get out of here while real men talk.
There is not a doubt in my mind that these particular allegations are false. A man who has lived the life Cain has will have things like this, it’s just life in modern day America. Opportunists abound and there are 1000 lawyers for every one of them.
I fear the things that will be coming out. It’s just the nature of public life. I pray that there is nothing awful that will hurt him as a person. But my gut tells me there is more.
You can take a message from the grass roots back to the rest of the Rovebot Establishment friends of yours.
Beat Cain on the issues or get out of the way. This sort of slime is going to buy the GOP Machine a Ross Perot type independent challenger in 2012. We not going to put up with this crap from the Beltway clowns anymore.
The Tea Party is not to fond of the GOP Establishment machine to start with. They are not going to roll over and play dead for the GOP slime machine. The GOP machine maybe able to win a battle against Cain with these slimy tactics, but they will lose the war.
So either get out of the way or get run over GOP, the choice is yours.
Very good reply. Thanks.
You are very naive.
By the way, besides spewing on this website, what are you doing to actually help Cain? Again, I like Cain. But I’m not going to blindly follow anyone. The stakes are too high.

Those of us who have been in the machine know how you people operate. We aren't going to stand idly by and watch you play your stupid political games.
The stakes are to high for "politics as usual" games in 2012
If some Freepers know Cain personally, that’s one thing. But for the most part, none of us know most public figures very well at all.
You may agree with the politician. You may like his or her style. You may have followed him or her throughout their public career. But don’t mistake that for knowing him well.
I’ve stopped instinctively defending politicians when claims of adultery or sexual shenanigans arise. Frankly, the suggestion that a political public figure may be a bit sexually adveturous doesn’t stretch credulity at all.
I’m not proclaiming Cain guilty of anything. Let’s see the nature and substance of the allegations are credible. Until then, I remain of open mind: perfectly willing to accept there is nothing to this, and perfectly open to accept that the allegations are true and serious.
Let’s see the evidence.
Let’s see the evidence. I won’t proclaim the allegations as truth or lies until we evaluate the evidence.

I am of open mind on the matter. An open mind is prepared to accept any outcome.
“If some Freepers know Cain personally, thats one thing.”
Yes, I know at least three long time FReepers (not me) that know Cain well on a personal basis, including two who have worked closely with him over the years.
You should follow the latest news on this story. Not only is the author’s story falling apart, but many women who worked with Cain are coming forward attesting to his character.
I’m just being fair and keeping an open mind.
A nothingburger.
Who are you talking about? YOU ESTABLISHMENT SLEAZEBALLS. Me? You don’t even know mePut up or shut up and you owe me an apology. But people like you, that throw bombs from behind a screen, and scream about changing things, but never do..I don’t expect much from the likes of you. I do more to further the Conservative cause in one day then you have your entire life.
No Hildy, it is just Cain. These Cain Train folks have turned me off on him as they are nasty.
Just like the Ron Paul supporters.
Half are new and half are sniffing glue.
Cain Changes His Tune on Allegations:
In an interview airing on Fox News on Monday night, Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain says that a financial settlement was paid to one of two women who accused him of sexual harassment while he was serving as head of the National Restaurant Association over a decade ago.
However, in responding to the accusations in question earlier in the day, the former Godfather's Pizza CEO said, "I have never sexually harassed anyone and those accusations are totally false ... It was concluded, after a thorough investigation, that it had no basis." He added, "I am unaware of any sort of settlement." Cain was not asked how he could have been unaware of a settlement if he knew the results of an investigation into the charges. He said that once the charges were brought against him he recused himself from the investigation.
And he added that he does not want the NRA to confirm or deny the settlements, or give any information at all about the incidents.
Why doesnt Cain want the NRA to comment on the matter or share important details and information? If there is nothing there why fear any disclosure? If the whole thing is made up, let the facts come out and let the matter play out so people will see it for what it is. Cain will come out of this more powerful than ever.
However, Romney wouldnt care if Cain plays nice, as he will destroy anyone that crosses him in the path of the GOP nomination.
No, I dont have any evidence about this - it just hit me today and I just put it together.
