The Daily Names One Cain Accuser, And She Works In The Obama Administration
Business Insider ^ | 11/08/2011 | Zeke Miller

Posted on 11/08/2011 8:17:17 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The Daily, the tablet newspaper, named one of the women who filed a sexual harassment claim against Republican front-runner Herman Cain while he was CEO of the National Restaurant Association.

The woman, identified by the paper as Karen Kraushaar, now works as communications director at the Treasury Department's Office of the Inspector General.

Cain has sought to downplay the charge — calling it frivolous — saying she overreacted to a gesture comparing her height to his wife's.

But the paper spoke to friends and family members of Kraushaar who vouch for her honesty — saying she is not the type to bring false allegations.

“She wouldn’t be the type to make false allegations,” brother-in-law Ned Kraushaar, a Georgia software consultant, told The Daily. “This happened [more than] 10 years ago. It’s not like she wanted to try and hurt the Republican Party.”

Joel Bennett, her attorney, held a press conference on Friday to say that his client would not speak publicly.

You can always tell when the media is on somebody's side - they run out and get glowing quotes from the person's friends and family about how wonderful they are.

I don't remember anybody ever asking Larry Sinclair's brother for a quote about the wonderfulness of Larry.

Playing with fire here again. Really want Freepers to remember for years to come how you helped pimp the smear at Cain?

She’s “very reliable”. Sure. Hitler’s staff were very reliable in his eyes too.

yep it’s the administration. they don’t want to run against Cain. They want to run against Romney. So sad, too bad. Looks like Cain is the man
yup, OSS fits right into this strategy. If Romney gets the nomination, this fall we will hear a LOT more about Bain Capital.

Paula Jones got $850,000 for her suit against Clinton.

Frivolous lawsuits get settled for 5 figures by businesses to make them go away, serious suits do not.

Kraushaar had better be prepared to play in the big leagues. She is about to have her life examined and worry about the large unmarked car parked across the street with the cameras.
