Cain accuser attorney: Client sees no value in revisiting issue
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2802657/posts
This is Cain winning. Complete abject surrender to Cain by the smear bots. They were offered the chance to defend their accusations in the open and the smearbots ran.
Now the question remains, who shopped the smear around to Politico? I suspect Romney and Rove are the authors. Both of the them have a history of these sort of sleazy political tactics
Rove, who asked Perry to become a Republican, ran Perry’s first campaign as a Republican. Rove and/or Perry.
