Me too. If this gets pinned on Romney - he'll spend hours talking about it in such detail that no sane person will have the slightest idea what he said. Or didn't say.
Like he always does...
That is the problem with having such a great field of candidates. Who to choose?
Ron Paul is going to wreck everything.
I love spinach, particularly in this culture of Wimpy.
I wonder how many FReepers or lurkers will have to google spinach, Wimpy, or Popeye?
There was no “settlement”.....the accuser was terminated and given severance pay.
BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!!
Now that’s ironically funny...
I believe he already has.

He didn’t do anything contradictory.
Earlier today he said if his legal team settled it, he didn’t know about it. It is obvious that he was made aware of it at some point today before this interview.
I hoped to be a Perry supporter, but found that I could not agree with some of his positions.
I am now a Cain supporter, and believe that he is our best remaining candidate. Has he made mistakes? Yes. However, I believe that he is a good man, and that he is mature, intelligent and strong. That's what I want in a president.
Never assume anything without some solid evidence.
NO he DIDN’T
Earlier he said his attys handled it and he didn’t know the details.
Obviously he got the details between then and now.
What is so hard to understand about this?
Sounds like par for the course — tame actually — for association work.
I’d like to know how many other employers the woman in question pulled this one. My guess is that she’s a frequent target of “sexual harassment.” In my experience, there’s a type that this happens to.
Who else would put such blatantly false information out there?
Several years ago we had the unpleasant experience of being sued by a sue-happy elderly couple who was involved in a multi-car accident that also included my husband. Our insurance company and their attorneys settled the case. We may have been notified of the final settlement, but I honestly don’t remember. If this incident is similar, then it wouldn’t be surprising or out of the ordinary for Cain to just have been told that the issue had been taken care of. It’s not like he was trying to run a big organization or anything like that. /s
More "Trailer Trash" like Paula Jones.
Who had the motivation to throw out that stupid story about the rock in TX? As far as I know, no one bothered to find out.
Please read posts #50 & #72. After that we can chat again?
I have no idea who did it but I can think of many who may benefit from this. We’ll just have to see how this plays out.
Heck, a man opens a door for a wimmyn and she'll kick him the groin and then file suit. Feminism!!! Evil to the core.
At the risk of being accused of being in the tank for Cain. Consider this. He probably knew there was a settlement and probably knew more than he was telling this morning, but may not have known what the confidentiality agreement terms were.
Since the agreement was 15 years old, it may may have taken most of the day for the Association’s counsel to locate, research, and opine on what Cain could and could not say.
As for the pundits talking about the “10-day” time Politico had given the campaign, no one knows what Politico asked the campaign or how it was framed.
I am disappointed in how this is being played out in the media and I certainly hope this isn’t the work of “our side.” But, in all that I’ve seen, I still believe the “establishment” both Democrat and Republican are deathly afraid of this man because he represents a departure from their “chosen one.”
Imho, Cain would have been busy with much more than a claim such as that, in which he believed himself to be innocent.
