Herman Cain took a lawyer because it was the right and the smart thing to do. When you’re fighting character assassination, you leave nothing to chance. If Gloria Allred doesn’t like it, she can go pound sand.
I hope Cain’s “power lawyer” has some “power private detectives” working to uncover the links between the 0bama-Axelrod-DNC-Clinton axis and the smear. This thing has to be blown open before Cain gets hurt in the primaries. The other GOP candidates and the GOP establishment will never pursue it if Cain is pushed aside.
