Apparently you can't handle the truth. Cain refused to answer a direct question 3 times and then his only response was "Have you ever been accused of sexual harassment?"

Now a semi-denial from Cain's campaign in which they attack the media for: "Dredging up thinly sourced allegations stemming from Mr. Cain's tenure as the Chief Executive Officer at the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, political trade press are now casting aspersions on his character and spreading rumors that never stood up to the facts."

Problem is, the Politico article is not "thinly sourced," they have identified the two women. Since everything is documented--including the payoffs to both women--the campaign is resorting to the oldest canard of all, "To the best of my knowledge . . ." Yeah, "plausible deniability," that'll float. When a campaign begins making that statement, it is pretty much a certainty that the allegations are true.

You can stick your fingers in your ears and scream "La-la-la-la" all you want, but it won't make this go away. Kind of hard for a morals candidate to hide from immoral behavior.

Far from being Joseph Goebbels, I'm just not living in Cain fantasy land denial.

Right, they have identified 2 women...interesting that they won’t say who they are. And, since you are completely devoid of reason, did you listen to J. Martin discuss his piece this morning on TV? You want to talk about lying...he was squirming the whole interview. One last thing, all those around him said this was never reported and the one that was, was actually won by Cain. Now, one last question for someone as brilliant as you....why would anyone who had a legitimate complaint about harrassment settle for only 5 figures? Think...it is hard for you Perry people, but try.

Excuse me for butting in here but please tell us who the alleged two women are that the Politico is quoting and using as a source and where we all can see the so called evidence of a payoff. I must have missed that part in their hit piece item. If you can't name them then you need to correct your attack post and say the names are not known are likely just fictional.

The Politico has a long illustrious record of publishing made up so called "news" articles and when proven wrong or to be lies further refuse to retract or apologize for their made up lies. If you are choosing to believe Politico then we all know what you are.

Maybe he should have resorted to the famous “Billy Budd, foretopman” response.

Sexual harrassment the tactic of choice for Democrats when attacking Conservative black men.

Yep straight from the mouths of those paragon of virtue a la Clinton, Weiner, teddy Kennedy, et al.

I’d be careful repeating Democrat talking points around here Mr. Perrywinkle.

Trick or Treat.... Wanna a Snickers sonny? You got it!

If this is all the dirt that can be dug up on Mr. Cain, he’s as good as nominated.

This isn’t 20 years ago, dude.
