Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney says allegations that rival Herman Cain groped a former employee are "particularly disturbing" and must be addressed.

Romney told ABC News/ Yahoo! on Tuesday that he will not judge whether Sharon Bialek's claims against Cain are true. He declined to say whether they are disqualifying.

...

Romney .. "These are serious allegations and they're going to have to be addressed."

That's the final straw ..

That's the one final statement coming out of Romney's mouth that leads me to say that, if he's the Republican nominee for President, for the first time in my life, I will not cast a vote for the office of President. I will make my vote in all of other boxes on the ballot, but, now, I will NOT .. repeat, NOT .. vote for Romney in any circumstance.

“but, but, but you’ll be electing Obama if you don’t support Romney!”

shove it.

[SERKIT]

Mittens couldn't grope his own *ss using both hands and a map. He's not sure if he is horseback or afoot. This winter, he'll be wearing flip-flops under his mittens.

Mitt is not it!

Romney’s disturbing admitted and bragged about crimes against mankind are very and real serious crimes not just unproved allegations and accusations:

FUMR!!

[sevinufnine]

YES. It is particularly disturbing and these lying accusers must be addressed!

[richardtavor]

I think that romney’s statement is likely to blow up in his face. He will be viewed as piling on.

[Never on my watch]

“But I didn't know until this day, that it was Barzini all along...”

PERFECT!

So, Romney finally comes out from underneath his rock and opens his pie hole and it’s about this issue? As much as I’m against the idea that it would be better to let Obama win over voting for Romney, I may be coming around.

The wind is blowing again & so goes romney. He’s like a chameleon. He’s just like obama. He will NEVER get my vote.

[CainConservative]

They won't get away with it THIS TIME. And they're too dumb to know that. Either we get a conservative nominee this time or we go 3rd Party. Either way Romney, Rove, and the rest of the establishment LOSES. Period.

[boomop1]

Not as disturbing as you, he is facing lies, you are a phony.

[Obadiah]

Where have I heard that it was the seriousness of the charge was all that really mattered?

Way to ensures that if you do get the GOP nomination in 2012 you will finish third behind 0bama and the Tea Party candidate, Mitt.

Mitt may just be the last GOP Presidential candidate in US History at the rate the GOP Establishment is going

[Pan_Yan]

It’s good to see the GOP leadership start rejecting bad behavior amongst its own party ranks.

Welcome to Free Republic. Saying anything that could be interpreted as complimentary to Willard Romney around here is kind of like lighting a joint in church. The congregation will be along shortly to ask you to step outside.

P.S. Willard may be, as you described him, a leader in the GOP, however he has never led a conservative. He has met some conservatives, however he has escaped their presence without ever getting infected with conservatism.

—Romney .. “These are serious allegations and they’re going to have to be addressed.”—

Man, if that doesn’t deserve a captain obvious, I don’t know what does.

That said, he can address and destroy non-credible claims, but if they keep coming, he’ll have to take a different tack of lumping them all together as a single smear and addressing them accordingly.

I’ve been wondering the same thing. I’m ready to bolt!
