Washington (CNN) – Herman Cain's campaign says it raised more than $400,000 on Monday, a "clear vote of confidence from his supporters," after the story broke alleging he had been accused of sexual harassment while head of the National Restaurant Association.

"In the last 24 hours, the Friends of Herman Cain campaign has had the single best day of fundraising since the start of the campaign," Mark Block, Cain's chief of staff, said Tuesday night.

Block said Monday's donations, both online and by phone, doubled the normal daily average in Cain's campaign to become the Republican presidential nominee.

MATT DRUDGE ? RUSH ? need to read this....

ATTENTION ! ATTENTION !ATTENTION ! ATTENTION !ATTENTION ! ATTENTION !ATTENTION ! ATTENTION !ATTENTION ! ATTENTION !.

Cain, who has been married to his wife Gloria for 43 years, did tell at least one campaign staffer this year about the possibility that claims of sexual harassment could surface, according to the aide. Cain, this person said, described a case in which he fired an employee in 1990s and the woman alleged sexual misconduct or harassment. Cain told the campaign staffer he had won the case and that the woman had paid his legal fees. The aide had no further details.



Looks like one of Cain's GOP rivals took this and made it into something that it is NOT !

Absolutely. Make whoever did this, whether it was from the Romney Camp, Perry Camp, Karl Rove, whomever planted this smear in the liberal press, egged it on, backchanneled and stirred the media shit storm, have it come right back on them and destroy them politically in a most dramatic and public way. Then it will be a warning and a lesson to all others tempted to act in this rather ungentlemanly, unfair, uncouth internecine manner in the GOP primaries until we get our nominee.

I say, Herman Cain should press on himself and get back on message and narrative, but the sleuths among us should stay behind a bit and following the money and the smoking guns right to the source of this Politico fiasco, and then make them pay for it in earnest. Make an example out of them.

Psalm 3:
1. Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

2. Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

3. But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

4. I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

5. I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

6. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

7. Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

8. Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.


Ohh Lord God of Israel ? in Jesus Christ's name, rebuke Cain's Rivals and expose them for what they really are !
Lord God cause all their plans and schemes to fall back on them !

"The absorption of the lethally-intended smear from the Rovian deathstar was galvanizing."

Rovian Deathstar, LOL! That's an awesome description, did you make that up? You should trademark it and make some T-shirts with Rove dressed up as the evil Emperor, blisters, festering pustules and all and Cain fending off his attack with a light sabre.

Hidden in that sentence is $200k per day normal donations. Is that a paltry daily take? I think not.

I'd say the Rush ads had nothing to do with the influx on Monday.

Lots of people are sick to death with the character assassination of decent conservatives, especially black conservatives. Lots of people have been looking at Cain positively and when this politico garbage came out, it was one way to fight back. (We couldn't do a thing to help Clarence Thomas.....)

I don't think it's going to end either. I think the donations are going to continue to flow the bigger the bullseye gets on Cain's back and the more the left tries to take him down with this kind of absurd smear.

That was the first time BOR was somewhat respectful towards Cain.
