Investigations into the background information of women lobbing charges at Herman Cain reveal a potential smear campaign that may result in a damaging backlash against democratic operatives...

[villagerjoel]

I think this was obvious to anybody who wasn't just looking for an excuse to get rid of Cain...

[circlecity]

They were hoping the could kill off Cain quickly before the truth came out on these gold digging bimbos. But Herman don’t play that game - He’s still standing.

It doesn’t make sense that it would be Democratic operatives. I don’t think such critters are stupid and the smart thing would have been to keep this one in the bag for now.

[DManA]

They thought if we show him as a black man hitting on white women all his racist supporters would turn on him.

Our biggest advantage is our enemies have no idea who we are and we understand them perfectly.

“It doesn’t make sense that it would be Democratic operatives.”

When you look at the ties these women have to the Democrat Party it is actually the only thing that DOES make sense.

[Genoa]

in the bag for now

Agreed. So, who has the most to gain by a scandal hitting just before the GOP caucuses and primaries begin? Mitt.

[TBP]

And they can’t figure it out. They even tried the “black man hitting on blonde women” card, figuring that this would upset conservatives. Instead, everything they hve tried has strengthened Cain.

I don’t think such critters (democrats) are stupid...

Don't be so presumptuous. Give credit where credit is due.

Excellent insight.

It doesn’t make sense that it would be Democratic operatives.

It is probably a combination of the GOP northeastern elitist establishment and the Obama team. Both have a reason to try to destroy Cain because neither wants the political status quo shaken up in favor of smaller government. And neither wants to see a GOP with possible mass appeal beyond caucasion suburbanites.

It may surprise you that the GOP establishment doesn't want a GOP with a mass appeal. If you lived in a state like Illinois, where the state GOP does everything it can to help the Democrats, you wouldn't be. Folks like Romney don't want to have to rub political shoulders with, and engage in political debate with, minorities or people who make less than a million a year.

At the same time, the msm have been pushing gingrich. I mentioned it before. 24/7 how gingrich was worth ‘another look’. Well, gingrich was the one who informed us that Reagan Conservatism was ‘dead’. Suddenly it’s alive again and HE is pushing it? Ummmm. No.
After romney, gingrich is the biggest establishment, politics as usual candidate out there...and Rasmussen now has him ahead of Cain.
Beware.

[SusaninOhio]

Regardless of who was behind this, from now on, every accusation against any GOP presidential candidate can and should be looked at with a grain of salt -

The dems are pathetic. They know their record stinks, their guy stinks, his Squatters/Occupiers stink - did I miss anyone?

[MrB]

They have to take him out early.
They cannot risk not having the melanin based criticism shield that 0bama has being swept aside.

[rigelkentaurus]

I think this is from the rat party - it has their fingerprints all over it. I also think they understand the usurper is toxic and probably will not be re-elected. As such, it is strategic to ensure they run against mittens. Even if the rats loose to mittens, they don't really lose. So of course, they (includes their prograndists the media) are trying to select our nominee.

[MrB]

Most of Cain’s supporters recognize one of their own.

[TBP]

It could well be Romney and his people.

I think it's hard to live in the DC sewer for years and stay clean. The Establishment in unrelenting in its quest to co-opt anybody who might actually change things.

The first story came from perry's pollster, the add on bimbos were looking for their fifteen minutes, they had no ideal the old smear would back fire.

"Boys I got bad news and worse news. First the bad news; there's a new Sheriff in town and he says that he's here to chew bubblegum and kick ass."

"What's the worse news?"

"The new Sheriff is all out of bubblegum."

[Palladin]

He sure looks like a winner in that photo!
