A couple of caveats are in order when reading this breaking story about a woman coming forward in a press conference to accuse Herman Cain of sexual harassment. First, its Radar that is reporting the news, and their track record for accuracy on political stories is less than spectacular, although not entirely bad. The second caveat? Her representation:
A new woman alleging sexual harassment by presidential hopeful Herman Cain will break her silence at a news conference with her powerhouse attorney Gloria Allred Monday afternoon in New York City, RadarOnline.comis exclusively reporting.
The woman, who will be the first to go public on Monday, sought Cains help with an employment issue and was allegedly sexually harassed by him. Allred and her client will discuss, in detail, what she alleges occurred with Cain.
For those who cant recall the last time Allred represented someone with a credible claim, youll have to look farther back than her attempt to kneecap Meg Whitman in the California gubernatorial election. Greta van Susteren destroyed Allred in a

Just thinking this morning about how silent Jesse Jackson (the Revvverend Jesse Jackson, sorry) has been. Then remembered he has at least one baby mama and a few girls he had working on his “staff.”
But that’s okay with Gloria Allred. After all, the Dems were okay with an admitted sexual assaulter and serial adulterer right in the White House. No problem! It was “only sex”! It was his personal life, so what!
This sure has been convenient for the Obama administration, hasn’t it.
You don’t hear a word about those dopes or their scandals.
It doesn't matter if she's telling the truth. "Sexual harassment" is a non-crime generally brushed off by "no thanks," or alleviated by getting a job elsewhere. You can be sure of thisotherwise the "victims" would be claiming rape. Liars and their lawyers most often use the word "sexual" to adorn an allegation of harassment, to suggest indecent exposure, kidnapping, or worse. But the actual allegation turns out to be that a guy made a joke the girl interpreted as a sexual invitation to herself (are we bragging or complaining?), or a statement the male allegedly made that implied that the sexes are different. That in itself would be in violation of feminist ideology, and therefore would instantly create a "hostile work environment."
As we know, feminists hold that men and women are equal in all respects, except that women are better. That's unless the woman in question is married and has normal children, in which case she is a non-person to be destroyed. In any case, it is impossible not to commit the non-crime of sexual harassment if you are male, as long as a lawyer can convince a bitter or jealous female that you could make her rich, or at least spitefully satisfied.
I hope I've made the issue clearer.
I have always said I will consider factual allegations against any of our candidates. Of course.

I don’t think anyone can help Mr Cain out of this never ending attack .I think his wife will have him withdraw. She does not deserve this and she does not have the scales of protection that Hillary developed over time.
I don't know anyone that has an ounce of respect for Gloria Allred other than Gloria Allred!
I wonder if this “victim” ever worked for the National Restaurant Association?
P.S. Clinton’s misconduct first came to light, in terms of wide public knowledge, through official channels. The Attorney General had appointed an Independent Counsel and then referred some information to him.
Most of the women were identified through that investigation. Some were called to testify or give sworn affidavits. Some went public on their own.
That was a far different situation that when you have someone such as Gloria Allred out there trolling like a shark to find this woman, any woman, to hold a press conference with.
These women don’t call Gloria. She finds them and “encourages” them to go forward.
Today we should have been talking about that absolutely fantastic debate Cain and Gingrich had Saturday night.
Hope you don't get what you wish for - because if Perry ever gets in the lead Gloria Alred is going to be able to pick and choose her clients from Perry “accusers”.
Gloria Cain will do no such thing.....
The woman is a pillar of strength, and he might comes not from anything earthly...
Who cares if the attack is never-ending...we have begged for folks in DC with a spine....WHERE IS OURS to not let these attacks ware down our support of those attacked— I am not saying anyone should support Cain as their candidate due to these attacks, but I am saying that we should all support him against these sleazy tactics to try and ware down him and his supporters....
Hey Allred,kick off those shoes and show us your “hooves”.
Somebody needs to do a photo essay of Gloria Allred with each of her “victims.” It would be quite a line-up.
Standing by with my next donation to Herman Cain!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS!
Mrs. Cain— not Gloria Cain, and her not he!
I think I need a drink before trying to spell anything else today...
;-)
If these types of comments weren’t satire and sarcasm, I would agree with you.
Now that’s a great suggestion!
Allred makes me uncomfortable. Can I sue her? Seems to me that there must be a statute of limitations on this and it should be well past that so other than a smear campaign, what’s the point?
