“Are you still beating your wife, Mr. Cain; yes or no?”, and other important State-Run-Media questions.....

[Vlad The Inhaler]

If he or she reserved, upgraded or actually rented a hotel room there are records.

If the records work against Cain they will be obtained and released by anti-Cain forces.
If no records are relesed it means they do not exist or do not validate the accusation.

[livius]

Good questions. He was treated with kid gloves unless he was asked any of these questions.

But that aside, why would he be willing to kill the entire GOP for his ego? He’s obviously done something out of line, or he wouldn’t have had two employment claims against him (no, not every boss even in the 1990s had this). He needs to address this matter, which he has constantly managed to avoid doing.

But in his mind it’s all about him. I think it’s all about getting a conservative candidate with smarts. He’s clearly not the one.

the demo-rino lynching of a conservative black man continues.

What kind of reporter is this?

A simple review of NRAss and NRAss Foundation will toss up two different organizations. The "foundation" is apparently an educational program/fund operated separately from the NRAss main lobbying body.

The reporter appears to have not bothered doing that sort of simple research. If he did he would not describe the Blond Lady as a "former colleague" ~ since she wasn't.

The rest of his rant is of equal quality.

Can somebody who knows those people give 'em a call and get his A$$ out of there ~ the guy is just a rent seeker. The upcoming campaign can do much better without pukes like that wasting bandwidth.

Other un asked questions like how does it feel to be a conservative and have these allegations when a demoncrap clinton who raped and molested women got a pass on it?

[Cicero]

NRO needs to change its name to National RINOs OnLine.

What a piece of cr*p that formerly conservative magazine has turned into. Bill Buckley must be rolling in his grave.

I was not a big Cain supporter, and I’m still not quite sure about what he would do in office, but this kind of stuff really makes me mad.

NRO still shilling for Romney, I presume.

“Did you rent or upgrade a hotel suite during the time period in question? If you did, why did you rent a luxury suite in a hotel in a city where you lived at the time?”

I could think of plenty of reasons for a CEO to rent a suite in a hotel in the city he lives in -- and not the one the snarky columnist is implying.

A very common reason for a CEO -- especially one representing the hospitality industry -- to rent a hotel room, would be as a hospitality suite. Similarly, he might have wanted a room for business meetings, during a conference in the hotel. He may have planned a late night of schmoozing and glad-handing business contacts & wanted to avoid a drive home afterward. Etc. etc.

Please FReep a Yahoo poll on the main search page, lower right side, asking who you believe, Cain or his accusers?

[DefeatCorruption]

Can Cain sue for slander? Can’t even begin to consider the coordinated planning behind these charges. A corrupt media allows this to happen.

[mylife]

It is clear that the MSM is not ready to quit this circus.

[IrishPennant]

I am appalled! Simply, incredibly appalled at some people who claim to be conservative.

We have collectively over the past 4+ years watched the demon-cratic party, inclusive of the non-rev wright, eric holder, bill ayers (will not use cap letters for these as$hats), rom Dead Fish and how many other WTF people, doing and saying the most vile and evil stuff right in our face while we knew they were lies...yet when obvious allegations are brought up against a man who afronts true values, we can dump him so quickly without support.

WTF...do we want "Just Easy"? It ain't easy, guys...this is a fight. If you are so willing to dump Cain because the machine is coming down on him, get the eff' out of my fighting hole. Connect the dots, folks...stay the course. It's our country at stake here.

[mkjessup]

This entire stinkin' business comes back to ONE basic question:

WHERE were all of these 'accusers' and 'victims' when Herman Cain was polling single digits at the bottom of the GOP pile?

[crickets chirping]

Suddenly, Herman Cain is surging to the TOP, overshadowing Mitt-Witt RinoRomney, and just like a stampede of door crashers at a local Wal-Mart trying to win 'early bird' prizes, the accusers suddenly 'remember' or 'want to speak out' or (the nauseating time-dishonored) 'speak truth to power'.

I'll tell you people one thing: I believe Herman Cain, and I believe he is innocent, and I would have absolutely no worries or concerns if he were to personally take my wife, daughter, or any female member of my family to dinner, to a convention, or to CHURCH (lest we forget that Herman Cain is an associate pastor at his church in Atlanta).

[newzjunkey]

I haven't seen the press conference yet.

How do you not ask him about the specific, and in theory verifiable, things she claims like the hotel room upgrade? Come on, media!

[MNJohnnie]

Nice smear. He rejected the accusations so of course the smear merchants keep asking new questions

He said the accusations are false. Where is the proof? Don’t just dream up new accusation NRO, where is the proof from the accusers that any of the accusations are based in any fact?

[MNJohnnie]

FACTS matter to most people. Rumor and innuendo do not.

You do not get to simply make up new accusations. You have to address the facts,

Cain was accused, He responded. Not up to him to prove the lie.

Or is guilty until proven innocent going to be the new standard when you happen to dislike the target?
