I think we need to continue to look hard at the Romney or Perry camps, as a matter of common sense. If it can be proven that either of them started this snowball (which the msm happily blew up everywhere), they should be no less than tarred and feathered. I feel like blaming this whole thing on the left might be letting some traitors in our midst off the hook, possibly. jmho

If your theory is right, you should be thanking them (Romney, Perry, whoever else your blaming) for getting this stuff out there early INSTEAD of having it all blow up in October at the end of a general election.

Seriously, what is wrong with you? Whatever the truth is, all these allegations were enough to make Cain voluntarily drop his campaign. If he can't defend himself now, how the heck do you believe he'd have been able to do it in the general election? The WORST thing that could possibly happen is to nominate someone with skeletons that would explode in the middle of the general election.

Pardon me?? My assumption in my post is that the allegations are untrue. I will be the first to admit that might not be the case. I'm not a hardcore Cain supporter, and I really didn't like his lawyer's statement on Monday - made it sound like at the least, yes, he's had an affair.

But my point was (and still is) that IF we are blaming the left for character assassination, if that's what it is(?) then we need to be realistic about the fact that this doesn't make complete sense. It makes more sense for Romney or Perry to trump up the rumormongering etc. My "tarred and feather" comment is a bit strong but that is if the charges are LIES.

There is nothing "wrong" with me, thank you very much, I rather resent that. But whatever.
