Ah Debra Saunders.....what passes for a conservative in San Francisco
There is no ‘good’ way to handle this crappola. It is like trying to convince people you have quit beating your wife.... What we should be doing is excoriating the media cycle jerks who promote this stuff. They treat everything like it is Kim K’s wedding/divorce news...breathless, all important, and can’t repeat enough rumor.
Clinton was not 12 to 15 years away from his sexual dalliances. No one has suggested anything other than verbuage that made them ‘uncomfortable’. There were no court cases. At least one had a small payout of severance as she left the association. Cain has handled this the way that any ordinary citizen would have if asked about something that happened over a decade ago.
For example, what were you doing 11,7,2001? We have reports that you were involved in something very bad. Do you deny it? Why not?
There may indeed be no “good” way to handle this, as you say, but you can’t argue that Cain couldn’t have done a better job.
Debbie continues her tradition of attacking real conservative like Herman & James O’Keefe.
I guess she needed a break from promoting same-sex marriage.
This bitch has always been a cunning runt.
Once a year, this dyslexic may get a part of a story correct, but she claims to be a SF conservative.
Debra is from SF and she is a rino, but is not now, nor never has been, a conservative.
He discussed this with at least one campaign staffer (and now he is saying perhaps there were others) in 2004. If he’s that forgetful, he needs to take more Geritol and not run for president.
Also, the whole point is that if you’re running for President, you’re not just Joe Schmoe anymore, somebody who can get away with a memory lapse, real or feigned. This is especially true if you’re running as a GOP candidate.
He sure hasn’t shown himself to be particularly competent or on the ball on any of this, and his launching into attacks on his fellow candidates was completely inexcusable.
Herman Cain Leads in South Carolina despite attacks on him

I’m not sure how much of this attack is GOP driven. There is some evidence for it. But around DC, it is Politico and other MSM outlets (WTOP news radio) that relentlessly push the story day after day.
The only way Cain had to “clear himself” in advance from their slander attack is to violate a legal confidentiality agreement. So his only choice was to break the law thus opening himself to being sued in the midst of his campaign, or let himself be slandered.
Now because he did not choose to break the law to protect himself, he is now being accused by the GOP Establishment slanderbots of “botching the response”
How about this. Accusations have been made. Cain has refuted them. How about the accusers put up even 1 single shred of evidence to back up their accusations?

Wilson also has ties to Rove. He use to work for him.
FYI..just breaking..woman claims that she spent the nigth with Cain, after they left the restaurant..several NRA staffers saw them get in a cab together...
Nein Nein Nein
Herman Cain is not your ‘standard politian’. It is one of the things I like most about him. He does not do what the Elites would suggest. All the Karl Roves of the world can go fly a kite. I will still vote my conscience.... No to Mittens No to Perry
Better than telling the truth....I have always found that to be about the best I can do. Sometimes I remember more things than others (and I have been told I have a very good memory). The fact is I do not remember all things at all times
