(Reuters) - Allegations that Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain sexually harassed women in the 1990s have begun to damage his bid for the White House, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

The poll showed the percentage of Republicans who view Cain favorably dropped 9 percentage points, to 57 percent from 66 percent a week ago.

I’ll call a spade a spade. Cain is a womanizer. I heard about the drunken bout at that restaurant and how the employee woke up in Cain’s apartment.

I know, “YOU CAN’T PROVE IT!” Whatever. I’ve been around log enough to know what is is.

Already got there. See post #139. [But Thanks.] A non-sourced, anonymous, private comment accompanied by a gratuitous editorial speculation on the part of an NJ "reporter," gets transmogrified into a factual claim in BP's tortured mind.

I never use a suffix and it works just fine for me. Of course, I’m on the west coast and a lot of content makes it on FR hours before I see it. I would be interested to know how long it takes.

I guarded an Air National Guard base for nearly four years. I didn’t find the A-7 pilots to be any kind of superior beings, unless alcohol consumption and adultery were the criteria.

You’re certainly unfit to sit on a jury in this country.

[Royal Wulff]

Don’t you get the idea that Cain is desperately searching for someone to hand this thing off to?

[bullypulpit]

I don’t have to reach any standard other than my standard. And my gut tells me he is a no good abusive boss with a temper and a penchant for abusing the ladies. Call me part of the 39% (-;

[bullypulpit]

You mean I can’t sit on any jury! Yee haa! I HATE jury duty.

[buccaneer81]

Funny, I've gotten the same impression of you from your posts on FR.

[FredZarguna]

I am your research assistant, google it.

In that case you're fired.

There's not one story there which supports the assertion you've made. Not even a nice try; Fail.

[bullypulpit]

I think that Cain’s pending departure from the race will be really tough on the CainBots. More tough than when Sarah Palin told them she wasn’t running. We may have to have online counseling services set up on FR to contain their despair.

You need a new screening process as Perry cannot communicate well and that's not going to change, and he has difficulty controlling his muscle movements. We can't have a president like that. He's an okay person but not for our president. He's my governor.

Well I finally located it in the comment section of your website instead of the body of your article.

You know your own website and could have found the link quickly enough, but that would send traffic to the Journal rather than your own page.

Of course it turns out not to confirm your “Cain’s womanizing ass” statement, the Journal only speculates that the sexual-harassment allegations could be at the root of their own claim that the NRA was eager to get rid of Cain.

And the National Journal’s sources for the claim that “the restaurant folks couldn’t get rid of him soon enough—”?

Well they aren’t named. They are sources who made their charges “privately”. Why, they seem to be as publicity shy as the sexual harassment accusers!

Seems that everyone who has the real dirt on ol’ Herman just can’t abide putting their names to their accusations. A cynic might think they could be ashamed of having to defend their accusations.

My first trip into Iraq the AF loadmaster misread the manifest and tried to drop off a bunch of civilians and lightly armed soldiers in a very, very hot spot. After yelling over the engines of the C-130 for a couple of minutes he finally figured out the error of his ways.

How bad was the area? Of over a dozen flights in and out of Balad and Tikrit that was the ONLY time I experienced a corkscrew landing.

What would you expect out of a Perrywinkle?

Thank you for your service, it’s unfortunate that you have such a low opinion of pilots.

[Pelham]

” I heard about the drunken bout at that restaurant and how the employee woke up in Cain’s apartment.”

And her name is?

And you “heard about it” where?

[FredZarguna]

Just wait. On the basis of this thread, Politico will be reporting about "a drunken brawl at a restaurant" and "some people waking up in an apartment."

Then BP will be posting a link to his blog on FR, which points to another link on the Politco website, and he'll be telling us that an "adequately sourced" and "accurate" story at Politico has Herman Cain brawling at restaurants and waking up with multiple staffers in strange hotel rooms.

At least his standards are as rigorous as the pimpstream media's.

[Pelham]

“I don’t have to reach any standard other than my standard.”

Lol! Well at least you admit that you don’t hold yourself to any standard other than your own.

I think some of us suspected that was the case.

IBD poll on rewarding illegals with in-state tuition Oct 11.

It has scrolled (being old news like Perry), and most links were on blogs, which most discount, but I found one copy elsewhere:
