Oh yes— but let’s not investigate, expose, how folks could donate to Obama campaign via credit card without validating the name and address match the credit card. I know this is so true...I tested it with a 5.00 donation to Obama campaign,gave a fake name, and it took my donation. On the other hand, tried it with McCain’s website and it declined it...This is such crap...Its going to get real ugly folks....and if all this drama coming out of the word work doesn’t stop Cain; then you can bet, there will be a real mind blower right before election...to get obama the win....betchya.
Well, the Cain campaign itself is initiating an investigation of the matter. They must have some reason for doing it. It may be that they just want to get out in front of the story unlike the harassment thing which they havn’t seemed to be well prepared for.
Investigating or not, if the media reports that this is subject to campaign law, then they are failing to properly distinguish between exploratory phase and campaign phase in which the legal responsibilities are different.
It’s just common sense that they are treated differently.
I understand the difference.
What’s being looked at here is apparently not the Cain campaign so much as it is the Block and Hansen operation “Prosperity USA”. If I was Cain, I’d get rid of Block and Hansen ASAP.
Why is suddenly no one talking about Solydra or Fast and Furious. BO has many scandals. Rush, Levin everyone needs to focus on BO.
yes but he was not a candidate until May - five months after the fact.
Everything they try to pin on Cain, BO has done it 10 times over. Cain needs to point to BO and say when BO gets the same scrutiny he will answer questions. I have only been here for news. I can’t watch or listen. Sick of it all.
Yup! Throwing the spotlight on Cain and two anonymous women takes the spotlight off of Solyndra, Beacon power and “Fast and Furious”.
No.
Republics simply need a pair.
It’s that simple. Forget what the left says. Stand them down, and push THEM back for a change.
Today I stuck a Cain 2012 sticker on my car.
I noticed two things right away. First, how very proud I felt to have it there.
Secondly, it was a statement which brought back the best of the beginnings of the tea party movement. A hint of defiance, and confidence that good will prevail.
Wish everyone would try it. Hard to describe, but Cain’s on the right track. Big.

And people are clamouring for him to be the nominee... it doesn't make sense. The problems within this shoestring campaign just emphasize on-the-job training that would take place if somehow he were to become POTUS.
Read his book. What I gathered so far is,
His focus is on the end goal.
He tends to deal with things as they pop up.
He leaves the past in the past. Doesn’t dwell on it but focuses on the future. He looks forwards, not backwards.
The Cain campaign is not step and fetch it for these lazy worthless journalists. ABC should just go wait in a bar close to either a Romney HQ or Perry HQ and get the intel that way. The press is always trying to get someone else to do their work for them.
Or get on twitter and make up stories the way the Romney and Perry campaigns are doing.
Journalism is DEAD
I can tell you're very concerned.
The money and support is pouring in for Herman Cain, but we cannot slow down now. Please help him by donating at http://www.hermancain.com/
Also to help join the buzz about Herman go to facebook.com and like him. In just the last week he has jumped 13% or 42000 with an impressive 10,000 in the last 24 hours. Make no mistake Karl Rove is watching Hermans likes and so is Romney who gained just 1500 since last Tuesday. THIS is the way to stick it to the GOP establishment! Please tell your family and friends to like Herman as well.
If Block is the guy I heard on Geraldo explaining Cain’s harrassment accusation, then, at a minimum, I’d never allow him to do that again. It sounded like weave and dodge, and it needed to sound certain. Better if he’d not called in at all.
Cain on Brett Baier and Bill O’Reilly last night did OK, but he didn’t up his batting average.
His answer on abortion is just odd to me. He doesn’t believe in abortion, but the family will have to do what it will do? What’s that mean? Go overseas? It’s just an odd answer. Better if he’d simply said that he blew what he was trying to say, that he was going to back up and start all over again.
I didn’t really mind his answer on Iran: (1) cause the world price of oil to drop to injure them economically, (2) Put some naval task forces in the Persian Gulf or within striking distance. He needs to verbalize that their capabilities go far beyond simple missile intercept.
I’d like to hear someone say that we’ll employ the full capabilities of our covert forces against their covert forces and that any door they open is open to us. They send teams, then we send teams.
On the sex harrassment, he needs to stop getting wrapped around the axle about when this was known and when it was addressed and who said what when to whom.
At this point, he needs to have the ladies involved tell their stories. The media knows them and will get the story anyway. He never should have given Greta all the details about age, height, job, time frame she was employed, etc., about the woman. Even an idiot could narrow that down to just a few people. He basically outed the woman.
Perhaps his plan is to have it trickle out piecemeal by the media, but that is going to consume the airwaves. That IS one way to get name recognition. If he’s confident he can bat it all down when it pops up, then maybe it’s genius.
Time will tell.
Did they ask him when he stopped beating his wife yet?
