    Just found out that one of the original women who took the settlement either did speak out now, and/or is wants multiple accusers to have a joint press conference. Apparently she's really pissed at the treatment she received from Cain.

    As for Cain's conference today he again is changing his story. Originally he was blaming Gov. Perry and is now blaming the Democrats. It seems clear at this point that at least some of the blame belongs in with him.

    That there are rational people who truly believe this man could be president just blows my mind.

    Herman is only allowed to live as a symbol for liberal racism. The minute he turns on a conservative he loses all usefulness.

    One woman lives in the same building as David Axelrod and the other has a son that works at Politico. Get real folks! It's a high-tech lynching of a black conservative! By a bunch of crazies!

    Anyone who believes these bologna charges is plain naive or biased or stupid or some combo of those three.

    Really? So back in the 90's when the first accusations were made, David Axelrod was pulling the strings?

    This one of the silliest claims I've ever seen.

    What is silly is idiot people that fall for anything. You could find a thousand women to make these type claims against ALL the candidates and don't be surprised if Mitt, Perry, and Obama himself are next. There's no end to this silliness. He was the head of the National Restaurant Association for crying out loud. IF there was ANY legitimacy to those claims, the women wouldn't have settled for severance. ANd if he truly assaulted this Sharon woman, she would have run to the police, had him arrested, and then sued his socks off! IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! 15 years ago was just yesterday. You guys are trying to act like it was back at the turn of the century when men and women were cave people and the poor widdle woman had no defense. That's bull. 15 years ago was Clinton/Lewinsky and many others! Wake up! There is no proof! Let these women go crawl back under their rocks before they have to be embarassed for what they truly are!

    That there are irrational people that believed Obama could be an effective president blows my mind. ANd to make matters worse, after 4 years of proving he cannot fix anything, only amplify the damage, the same idiots are prepared to vote for him a second time!

    Most rational people would explore why that is.

    And another question jopatmc

    Cain first blamed Perry for the allegations, now he's blaming the DEMOCRATIC MACHINE.

    Can your blogs explain that one?

    Obama did fine as the President. He got the ACA passed, managed to avoid disaster in the financial markets and the auto sector, navigated the Arab Spring, killed Bin Laden and Awlaki, ended Don't Ask Don't Tell, etc. What he couldn't get-- new job bill, additional stimulus, the budget fight, etc.-- has much to do with GOP obstruction and effort to tank the country for a lotto pick (Mitch McConnell swore to do so since day 1, so it's not exactly a conspiracy theory).

    Not the perfect record, but not bad given the 2008 financial **** storm leading up to the his election.

    This is why, BTW, his job approval rating is as high as 44% despite the 9% unemployment and he's either tied or leading the GOP candidates in the polls. People ain't happy with things, but the number don't exactly say they are blaming him, either.

    Herman Cain can't be bothered to know the basics of medicare, foreign policy, and thinks everything is a gotcha question. I doubt he'd have navigated the last 4 years nearly as well as the current POTUS.

    So, this is what happens when you take everything you see on Fox News (especially statements from the Cain Camp) as the truth:

    My response is the same like I said to Rocket River. EVEN IF all of these women are complete liars, which I can't believe at this point - Cain's response to this entire mess shows that he's completely incompetent to be President.

    I mean, let's suppose Cain's completely innocent. He was informed 10 days in advance by Politico that they would be reporting on this completely bogus charge. And after 10 days, a huge amount of time in the political world? He goes into "No I never did anything" to "Oh yeah there was a settlement" to "I won't deal with the media" to "I'm holding a press conference". His response to this political crisis for him has been completely disjointed and incoherent even with the advantages he received, ESPECIALLY if he's innocent and could just go out and say, "Yeah, there was a settlement, it wasn't a big deal", and then it would just go away.

    If Herman Cain can't deal with a crisis like this....... then why the **** should I trust him to deal with a REAL crisis if he becomes the next President?

    Yes I just saw on the news that one of the women who did take the settlement has come out. I am curious though whether she now needs to return the money she was paid since she broke the agreement.

    Apparently the NRA thought there was enough legitimacy to these claims to offer a severance in the first place.

    I agree that tons of claims like these are made against politicians, high ranking executives and public figures. What doesn't happen though in every case is that settlements are offered.

    If there was no case, the NRA would not have settled with two different women. Companies have this stuff happen all the time and have legal counsel.

    They don't give into every accusation because if people could get money that easily you'd see a lot more cases and accusers. I have witness sexual harassment in the work place and seen nothing come out of it. It happens all the time. Most women do not pursue the case.

    It's hard to believe someone is going to fabricate it unless they have some sort of evidence to back it up.

    People forget that making even a true and legitimate accusation can spell death for one's career, even if you win. It's not something to take lightly.

    It's hard to believe that 4 different women would come out and all be lying. Very hard.

    So, you choose to believe this 2-bit reporter working for a liberal political rag and not believe Herman Cain's staff???

    You are making a choice in what you believe without proof. Herman flatly denied ever sexually harrassing anybody. This kid puts up a post on Twitter and you don't want to question it in the least, just accept it as truth.

    If you can't see through this facade....you are truly most gullible. Watch as Fox News slowly unwinds these women's character and falsehoods. Watch as the liberal media suppresses the true evidence and continues to pump up allegations and accusations with no evidence whatsoever. Just watch. And then continue in your denials of acceptance of facts and credibility and choose to believe people who are proven to be liars and manipulators.
