I could have told you that without looking - it’s pretty bad when you can predict a person’s candidate by the hatred, accusations or lies they spew.

There is one woman against him, and she, uh, lacks even the slightest credibility. There is another anonymous person who clearly had no case because she was awarded a minor parting gift as a severance package.

No one can stand up to a media onslaught if weak people on our side cave every time. Stiffen up that spine a little.

Yes, I’m going to add that to my list of WTHeck questions about this story:

Isn’t sexual harrassment from employer to employee? She was not working for Mr. Cain at the time how is that sexual harassment.

How is a fulltime single mom supporting herself and her children?

Why would a tea party member ever call Allred?

Why don’t any of the Chicago tea party folks remember her, or have photos of her (it was a lightly attended event)

They said she was registered Republican but records show she is not.

If she was so disgusted why talk to him and ask if he remembered her?

If she just worked in the office for 6 months, why would she need to be “shown around the place?

If you’re going to attack a woman in your car, and you’re married, why do you pull up in front of the office where you are the boss???

If he did what this woman claims Herman did, why did she let him give her a ride back to her hotel?

Why was she smiling???

Why didn’t she tell her boyfriend?

Women don’t say a man reached for her “genitals”, that is something a man would say.

If he did this, it was assault - is someone going to press charges? Sue? Why didn’t she press charges then? Why didn’t she sue then?

How does anyone remember this much detail after 14 years?

Was Cain driving this car? Does he have 3 arms? When did he unzip his pants?

Why couldn’t the media ask her questions?

You are being assaulted and you say, “Don’t you know I have a boyfriend?” SERIOUSLY???

She wouldn’t tell her closest friends about this, but 17 years later would tell everyone on national TV?

Why did her fiancee not know about this until Friday - she just “up and went to NY” then boom here comes this story.

Does she have a motive to lie? (??????)

I know it’s mean, but I have to say it: you’re really annoying. I dislike your screen name as well - you take a great artist’s name and then post such drivel. If you weren’t so annoying you’d be surreal.

Female republican voters aren’t stupid like liberal women voters.

You say that about Herman Cain with that tag line you sport?

You are one confused poster pal.

RE :"I'm a female Republican and my vote is for Cain."

Do you notice how her story looks like a cliché? It's just too much of the standard formula :
"Rich powerful Black Republican molests white woman who just wants to feed her kids"

Hopefully, he will announce the end of his candidacy for President of the United States.

Hopefully, you will announce the end of your status as a freeper, because you have just announced yourself as an MSM lapdog, liar that supports a whore represented by Gloria Allred. But I digress....

My man keeps on rising in the polls and in fundraising, your guy is a second rate hack. Gingrich isn’t going to get any votes from Cain supporters, especially the women, most, unlike you, are immune from quivering at the perryporn.

“WE STOPPED CAR OUTSIDE NATIONAL RESTAURANT ASSOC, B/C HERMAN CAIN WAS GONNA TAKE ME INSIDE AND SHOW ME AROUND.”

BUT WAIT, FOLKS, SHE JUST WORKED IN THAT OFFICE FOR 6 MONTHS! THEN THEY FIRED HER! SO WHY WOULD SHE NEED TO BE “SHOWN AROUND” THE PLACE WHERE SHE JUST WORKED FOR 6 MONTHS??
*********************************************

Not defending her but I don’t believe she worked out of headquarters.

*snip*
“Bialek, a Republican, said she had met the charismatic Cain at several restaurant association events.”

‘Why are you here?’ I said, ‘Actually, Herman, my boyfriend, whom you met, suggested that I meet with you ‘cause he thought you could help me because I really need a job. I was wondering if there’s anything available at the state association level or perhaps if you could speak to someone at the foundation to try to get my job back, perhaps even in a different department.’

You just reminded me of something that she said that struck out at me: the use of the word “genitals”. I don’t know a single woman who uses that word about her own body. It struck me as odd and creepy at the time but then I forgot about it.

who's that playboy magazine guy who offered money with dirt on republicans

You are thinking of pornographer Larry Flynt, publisher of the sleazy Hustler magazine. You may be right. He has offered big money in the past to anyone who can bust a republican, most recently Rick Perry, with some scandalous behavior. So far no one has taken him up on Perry, so he may have well changed his tactic, to buy a whore to trash Herman Cain. Especially since democrat porn purveyor Flynt doesn't like black people much.

Another Republican grandmother for Cain.
Doesn’t anyone else think it’s strange that this bimbo’s reaction to Cain’s supposed assault was to say that she had a boyfriend? I’d have smashed him right between his eyes, jammed him with my knee and been out that door in a flash.

“You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I’m an easy target. Yeah, you’re right, I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you... but I don’t like to hurt people’s feelings. Well, you think what you want about me; I’m not changing. I like... I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. ‘Cause I’m the real article. What you see is what you get.”

It is bad and sad. Even if Herman Cain is not their man, every conservative should be opposed to this type of thing and want him to fight on. But they're not...they're wanting to see Perry rise out of the gutter so badly they're just fine with these leftist media smear jobs. It's despicable behavior.

I know there are some decent people who support Rick Perry who are just as disgusted by this...and they should be. It isn't just an attack on Mr. Cain, it's an attack on decency and an attack on the Republican/conservative base. But with some, hoping Perry benefits from this is priority one. And that is both bad and sad.

Clarence Thomas again. That ho is the new Anita Hill. Thomas survived and so will Cain if he doesn’t drop out.

This deserves repeating:
Sorry, pal, we are OVER letting the media dictate who our candidates are. Cain is a decent man and he has every right to tell the media he’s not going to play their game and just carry on with his serious business of getting to where he can work to solve out nation’s myriad problems.

Right on!

The only scandal here is a media-induced, shark feeding frenzy. Were it not for them, this would have already died a quiet death.
All said, Cain must mount a vigorous, supremely organized and fact-based defense. It needs to be done by tomorrow.

Anybody know e-mail for Block? (Freepmail if you wish)
