(CNN) -- The attorney for a woman who accused presidential hopeful Herman Cain of sexual harassment in the late 1990s said Thursday his client is not prepared to hold a news conference about the allegations until all the other reported victims agree to join her. Joel Bennett said his client, Karen Kraushaar, has tried to reach two other women who also claim they were sexually harassed by Cain during his 1996-99 stint as head of the National Restaurant Association.

Nobody wants to talk because there is nothing to say, and they dont want to join the absurd circus.

“Nobody wants to talk because there is nothing to say, and they dont want to join the absurd circus. “


Nobody wants to talk because there is now the presence of Lin Wood. This little smear attempt is now concluded.

Not to mention a libel suit. This stops right here, right now. Until they try something else.

Bennett is a shyster lawyer specializing in baseless claims for money.

Lin Wood is a major leaguer.

This is a balloon with air escaping...they’ve got maybe a week to squeeze this out in the media and then the public will lose all interest.

Everybody has dirty laundry, these women can make their little claims in the office and no one knows, go public, and someone that knows where your rump warts are may drop a dime on you. They have found that out from buy a lick.

The Left and their Rovian accomplices got what they wanted though. Not entirely, of course, like Cain’s head on a platter. But they severely damaged his nomination hopes and forever scarred his name. Scumbag

If Cain wins the nomination they will put out a baseless smear press conference. Any litigation Cain hits them with will be covered under the table by the Obama administration.

Or they are going to troll for more specious claims from disgruntled employees with a grudge.

Office politics is not the same as National Politics - maybe they’ll get a clue!!!!

Think her attorney, Bennett, finally gave her some good advice, “Shut up” because you will be paying Cain by the word. Karen would you like to buy a vowel for $500?

Less than a week. The unfolding Penn State pedophile scandal has blown it completely out of the headlines. If the Israelis attack Iran it won’t make it above the fold of page E-47.

It’s obvious that a press conference would presumably generate a lot of specific questions about what Herman Cain supposedly did to these women and since their stories are pure fabrications, those kinds of questions are unwelcome. Even with nothing but ‘softball’ queries from the media, talking too much might reveal the inevitable inconsistencies in the woman’s stories that Cain’s people and the alternative media would spotlight. Because just making the (false) accusations has done plenty of damage to Cain’s image and thrown the Republicans ‘off-message’, why risk blowing the scam, now? Hence, no press conference now - and probably never.

I suspect they are getting the legal advice "This isn't working; it's time to shut up. Losing a slander suit to a presidential front-runner is an expensive hit."
