I see an enormous fork approaching from space heading straight for Cain.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, he’s done.

Unlike the Thomas accusations, this is actual physical contact. And if it actually happened but was consensual, he cheated on a wife he’d been married to for decades.

I know people will scream bloody murder about “double standards” but you have to face the reality that someone who makes a big deal about being religious and moral is going to be hurt by something like this infinitely more than a politician who doesn’t.

People can argue that his true believers in the primaries will consider it false, but this absolutely kills him with independents (especially women) in the general election.

Not so fast! I have two sources who confirm to me that the two sources for this article do not exist. And my two sources are no less fictitious than their two sources.

She didn't say that. She just said she just woke up in a bed that belonged to him.

That being said, if he did cheat on his wife....I would be very disappointed. He just doesn't seem like that kind of person.

If Clarence Thomas looked like Denzel Washinton, Miss Anita Hill was have giggled “Oh Denzel go on with your bad self”. In Cains case it is a little different, IF there was physical contact and IF he was guilty of infidelity, that is a different story. Clarence Thomas may or may not have said inappropriate things just like Herman Cain may or may not have had sex with female employees. If he did, it’s bye bye Herman.

We can't accept that outcome.

If it is not true, it cannot be allowed to become the SOP, or a Republican will never be elected to high office again.

You might want to read up on the Thomas incident. And how his response changed that. This is just getting started, and it’s great publicity.

Uhmm,

You might need to add a qualifier or two to your statement.

Really? What physical contact was done? Last I heard she was claiming it was a gesture or comment but no physical contact. Please, provide the link.
