Interviewed today on KTOK’s Mullins in the Morning, [Chris] Wilson, of Wilson-Perkins-Allen Opinion Research headquartered in Washington, D.C. explained he was a witness to the incident. “I was the pollster at the National Restaurant Association when Herman Cain was head of it and I was around a couple of times when this happened and anyone who was involved with the NRA at the time, knew that this was gonna come up.”
However, Wilson isn’t only linked to NRA and Cain from years gone by. His firm has conducted polling in this presidential race for the Make Us Great Again PAC. And guess which candidate is favored by MUGA-PAC? Why, none other than … Rick Perry.

Right, it’s over for Cain. Same thing Ras found in SC, right? LOL. Nice wishful thinking. Have you considered that Cain might actually have a viable reason for this assertion or are you too busy pushing another campaign to think of that for yourself. We shall see.
I wasn’t suggesting anything.
I put a link to more information.
I’m sorry if you felt it was directed at you.
If not Perry, it’s Willard’s minions... or, a ‘Rat bastard wanting to foment exatly the kind of flaying crap that’s infesting the atmosphere.
Point taken.
Wow ! It is so sad to see the self destruction of all Republican candidates. BTW, if anyone in the list things Romney is getting a free pass, wait and live the movement witness destruction of him after his nomination.
For the first time, I sadly feel that, Obama will be re-elected because of all our stupid Republican operatives.
It is ridiculous to point to those polling numbers and claim some kind of moral victory for Cain at this point. Talk to me in two weeks about where he is.
I agree...I just believe it will be Cain.
PERRY TIES
- Curt Anderson joining the team last week (2004 campaign worker, talked to Cain, knew about one case) - Joined Perry's team on 24th
- Joseph Allbraugh (of the Karl Rove Iron Triangle) joining Perry’s team on October 24th
- Shawna Bolick’s (Perry's AZ state coordinator) tweet on the 27th - http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/8260/perrypolitico.jpg
- Chris Wallace’s admission last Sunday FOX that they were going to resucitate Perry’s campaign: Chris Wallace:
- "Let's tell a dirty little secret which is that we, because we don't want this to be an Obama-Romney race next year, want to see a Republican primary race. And I get the sense, Kim, that you're suggesting that there is going to be an effort, either on his part or our part to kind of resuscitate Rick Perry.

- Chris Wilson (a supposed “witness” to this allegation) Wilson-Perkins-Allen Opinion Research - firm has conducted polling in this presidential race for the Make Us Great Again PAC which favors Rick Perry.
ROVE - tied to Perry, Romney and FOX - saying "Cain is finished" last week.
ROMNEY TIES
- Head of the NRA donating $1000 to the Romney campaign.
DEMOCRAT TIES
- Politico Journolists
- Joel Bennett, the accuser’s attorney, and friend of Clinton’s COS Podesta.
That’s a nice ham sandwich you just whipped up.
This is Cain’s scandal and he can put it in his pipe and smoke it.
Chinese proverb: “It’s better to be a dog in a peaceful time than be a man in a chaotic period”
(The actual “may you live in interesting times” quote.)
These endless finger-pointing “it was Romney/Perry/Newt,” stories are sickening. Washington is nothing if not a massive rumor mill.
Even assuming, as Cain says, he shared this information only with Curt Anderson, that doesn’t mean Anderson had a thing to do with this leak. Others connected to the NRA and the women involved were familiar with the story if not the facts. Cain has to know that.
Right now it seems anyone involved, however removed, is out for his/her 15 minutes of fame, i.e., Joel Bennett. The fact that Bennett can’t remember the details, and doesn’t have his copy of the agreement or any of his files on the matter, but is willing to opine to the press, speaks volumes.
Oh really? I’m just posting links and connections to Cain’s story.
Which part isn’t true?
What is the scandal exactly? Most people out here talking about it are not seeing a scandal, just a lot of vague allegations of something he said, or non-sexual gestures, that made someone feel uncomfortable.
And we know of one woman being let go from the NRA with severance pay. Now another woman comes forward and “oops” she forgot to file a harrassment claim??? ROFL!!!
There is nothing here. Women who worked with Cain are coming out and testifying on his behalf. The story is falling apart.
The best thing the other candidates could do right now, is come out and denounce this smear campaign against Cain.
Its been over for Perry for quite awhile now. He showed his true colors and people didn’t like those colors. LOL
Single digit polling tells the tale for a guy that had it all in the beginning.

how do you come up with a straight story about lies? about something that happened a decade ago, that never happened?
It’s over for me for Perry but not because of his “true colors”. I think he’s been unfairly accused of not being conservative enough.
I think he is way conservative enough.
It’s just, he’s too goofy. He can’t win.
I'm glad you asked. You tell the whole truth at the very first opportunity and you stick to the truth every time you're asked about it. Cain has not done that. Every day he admits to a little more of what politico is alleging. Every day his story changes. Every day his memory becomes a little clearer. That's exactly the WRONG way to handle an accusation...especially if it's untrue. Cain's reactions to this story tell me that it is true, and that's a damned shame.
This whole thing is BS, and I seriously wont vote for anyone but Cain, period.
So if any of the other idiots think they will benefit from this pack of lies they better think again.
I can’t even remember what I ate for dinner last week, give me a freaking break.
