A spokesman for Texas Gov. Rick Perrys campaign is adamantly denying that members of the GOP presidential candidate's staff leaked a story has swamped Herman Cain's campaign this week. Instead, the Perry camp is pointing a finger at the campaign of another rival Republican, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, as a possible source of the report about the sexual-harassment charges levelled a decade ago against Cain by female subordinates at the National Restaurant Association.

I’d suspect Romney well before Perry (Romney’s people have been doing this sliming in ‘08, and vs. Palin).
Well it took Herman 24 hours to even deny the harassment cases.
What’s up with THAT?
And why does he keep changing his story?
While Romney may not have a conservative record, subsidizing illegals is not conservative either.
To all the Cain supporters there is no reason to abandon him. So far there is “not much” to the story. Just the msm doing there usual hit job and stirring the pot.
Right. If Cain is telling the truth and this is much ado about nothing then Cain should loosen up, smile, take questions and laugh it off. There are two possible reasons for the way they are poorly handling this - Cain is a non-politician or the accusations are more serious than Cain admits. I happen to believe the former. We didn’t want a politician and the flip side is inexperience in dealing with crap like this. I haven’t given up. Cain is basically a good man and he will continue to learn and grow
Yep, seems so...Who else had big motives?
Follow the motives....Whoever leaked, knew the damage would be done by the allegations themselves, regardless if they were credible or not.
He could but it would be a lie.
Wilson did not work for Perry, he worked for Rove.
Perry must have about 100 figers with all the finger pointing he does. Can’t do a thing about immigration like Alabama and Arizona because the federal government won’t let me. Signed on to illegal alien freebies because the Republicans in Texas wouldn’t let me say no. Can’t refuse little girls getting a shot because Merk told me I had too. Can’t do well on debates because the moderators are so mean. Can’t be me who screwed Cain because it has to be Romney. Obama and Perry are so much alike I bet a million that they are related.
The usual, everybody is jumping to conclusions with no facts to back up their opinions. I’m waiting for it all to sort itself out and that won’t happen tonight!
Me too. You get dumber every day on that list.
AND IF CAIN IS CORRECT ABOUT GOVERNOR PERRY’S CAMPAIGN?
This is rapidly turning into a made for TV Lifetime movie.
Cain personally “accused” the Perry camp.(with no proof)
Perrys spokesman merely “suggested” that it could be Romney.
WHAT HARRASSMENT?
The one is a firing. SEVERENCE PAY = $35k
With no proof.
it would be bad if Perry had knowledge or if Perry did not dismiss the person.
Acting rather guilty, I would say. Hmm.
Perhaps Mark Block is a genius after all.
