They’re perfectly legitimate questions. Why is she coming forward now? Who paid for her? More important, who paid Democratic operative Gloria Allred to hold yesterday’s presser?

Of course, the MSM will ignore all that. As far they are concerned, its “blaming the victim.” And Cain can do no good in their eyes.

I asked the same question yesterday when I found out she was out of a job, again, and came from Chicago to NY for a TV presser to ask Cain to do the right thing. LOL! How pathetic - how does this not scream of 'dirty politics'. Out of a job and traveled to DC, also. I guess she has to wait until the phone is invented to carry out her 'sincerity' and 'job hunting' skills.

As far they are concerned, its “blaming the victim.”

But who is this meant to victimize - if it's not Cain.

“As far they are concerned, its “blaming the victim.””

And that would be a good example of the (oft mislabeled) logical fallacy: “begging the question”.

To accuse Cain of “blaming the victim” would be to assume that the woman is actually a victim. Meanwhile, it hasn't been established that she's anything but a liar, attempting to victimize Cain.

(I know, I know — it's naive on my part to even suggest that logic has anything at all to do with politics.)
