Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain will hold a press conference in Scottsdale Tuesday in response to recent allegations of harassment.

According to a statement from the Cain campaign, Cain will hold to the conference at the Scottsdale Plaza at 3 pm.

*snip*

“I know what happened, and he knows what happened,” Bialek said on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight. “One of my whole objectives was to give him the opportunity to come forward, to redeem himself, say, ‘Hey, I’m sorry. I did this. It happened. And let’s move forward.’ And it is unfortunate. I’m very disappointed that he didn’t take the lead in this.”

She said in the interview that she was prepared for an expected media onslaught, but was more concerned about how it would affect her teenage son

Where do I sign up with my allegation ? Herman harassed me many years ago. I just remembered. I want him to address my allegations and provide a big, fat, scared apology to me so it looks to the whole nation of America that he really did this to me.

It’s not that I want big bucks for saying this stuff publicly. I just want to let all the voters out there in TV land to know that Obama did not harass me, and if I had to pick a Republikn who was least likely to harass women, then that guy would be Mitty Romney, from the great state of Massachussetts. He’s not a harasser. I can tell, I was harassed. Did I tell you by who ?

This message was not not approved by G. Allred.

The thing is their settlements were SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS - not SETTLEMENTS in regards to a lawsuit claiming harassment. And, he wasn’t even a party to signing said agreements - so it’s likely he didn’t even KNOW about them...

PS - Welcome to FR. You’ve been a busy beaver on your first day here! Just wondering if this is a new account, or have you been here in the past under a different name?

They want to stop this, all they have to do is say that there will be a news conference with Larry Sinclair telling his interesting cocaine and sex encounter with odumbi in 1999.

I wish that graphic didn’t have the Axelrod pic. The Axelrod SB was in court against is a different Axelrod.

Cain lost my vote when he stated that there were 50$sexual,harrassment settlements, then backtracked and said there were...his credibility was gone at that point.
Everyone on here seems to be just ignoring that. Cain is finished. How many of you on here REALLY want to see this bozo as president? How about abortion, 9/9/9, etc. I think everyone is just grasping at straws because right now conservatives have NO candidate in the running. Someone decent better step up quick or it's going to be Mitt. How does drafting a candidate at the convention work, anyone know? Mitt is still in the 20's, we just have to keep him from getting over 50% for the first ballot then we can draft Sarah or someone decent.

ooH .. didn’t know there shouldn’t be breaking news posted.

I was glad to see it posted in BN. I came on FR specifically to check the latest on Cain and there it was. This is valuable.

Awareness that there is a FReepathon is NOT a problem. And, it's not "breaking news."

The American people have never understood the term “impeachment” and most are convinced that “their bill” was never impeached because he served his full eight years.

Well, Gloria Allred getting involved was the proof I’ve been waiting for: sliming Cain has been a Democrat operation all along.

While we, the MSM, the candidates, and Cain himself have been pointing fingers at Perry and Romney but meanwhile the Dems have been organizing an attack: start slow with “anonymous” accusers represented by Joel Bennett (Dem) and then build to a crescendo with a blonde represented by Gloria Allred, a huge Democrat contributor and supporter
(in addition to being a ditz).

Why it is our conservative candidates need to be as clean as the Pope every moment of their lives (and be able to prove it), while the leftist pukes can put ANY immoral, drug-snorting pervert in office, and we’re ruthlessly attacked for even bringing up the subject?

I agree with many others... at this point, I don’t care WHAT Herman Cain did or didn’t do. Though he’s nothing more than the best of a lousy selection of candidates, in my mind, I hope he gives them hell and comes out of this stronger. To smear one of our guys like this without any proof at all is a lowpoint... even for the leftist commie scum.

“I know what happened, and he knows what happened,” Bialek said on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight

Making the rounds... collecting paychecks.

So.. how much grocery money will the inevitable appearance on "The View" bring?

He should say “Here they go again smearing good people and good Americans with vague allegations without any proof whatsoever. Isn’t it obvious why this comes up now and from whom? Democrats need to get to the issues (like what America is to do about the wreckage this president has caused) and abandon the smear.”

Cain didn’t say that from the beginning. He first said there weren’t any, then that he couldn’t recall, then that, yes, there was one (there were two), but he’d never even thought of them since the 1990s when they happened (turns out he’d discussed them in his previous campaign in 2004 and also that Politico had contacted him a couple of weeks earlier asking for his comments before they published the story), and then he announced that it was all part of a conspiracy against him.

It’s not a lie. Cain’s the liar, ala Bill Clinton. I am disgusted by the way he is cynically manipulating people who trust him. Don’t forget, people believed Bill, too: IIRC, it was Nancy Pelosi who burst into tears when he finally had to admit it.
