They accused him of not being prepared to deal with foreign affairs or taking the race seriously.
They can't accuse him of incompetence because he's good at everything he does.
So naturally what is he accused of?
Sexual harassment. Of course. The hot accusation to hurl at Black Republican since Clarence Thomas.
Politico, the Democrat talking machine, has "anonymous" sources.
But one source closely familiar with Cain’s tenure in Washington confirmed that the claims related to allegations of sexual harassment – behavior that disturbed members of the board who became aware of it, as well as the source, who otherwise liked Cain.So none of these people will come forward. The unnamed "source" who started this says that board members who were aware of it were disturbed by it.
“I happen to know there were sealed settlements reached in the plural. I think that anybody who thinks this was a one-time, one-person transgression would be mistaken,” this source said.
But the end of the article says indicates that "unanimous" support was given to Cain:
Cain’s treatment of women was “the same as his treatment of men. Herman treated everyone great,” said Mary Ann Cricchio, who was elected to the board of the restaurant group in 1998. She said Cain left such a good impression on the organization that when he spoke at a group event in January of this year, as he was considering a presidential bid, “he had unanimous support in the room."
Revelations about the settlements come as members of the association’s board planned to meet this month to talk about ways to use the organization’s clout to boost Cain’s campaign.
Ideas to be discussed included making a donation to Cain from the organization’s political action committee, which typically doesn’t contribute to presidential campaigns, and, more significantly, organizing a fundraiser for his campaignAnd no doubt Politico is trying to stop that support, right? And no doubt the women who were "harassed" will come forward, in case this little article doesn't work, right?
You know, it really is tiresome the way the press treats their opposition.
If this treatment were equal, it'd be a different story. But it never is. There're always trumped up charges, like a woman claiming that some guy said something about a pubic hair on a coke can, something the guy can't prove and therefore any hopes he has a future should be dashed, even though she followed him from job to job.
I mean, seriously.
The liberal president can request fellatio of a twenty something intern and that's just being who he is.
And another liberal president, currently POTUS, can be accused of actually having an affair and other nasty stuff but I bet you never heard of that, did you?
Now this will be clucked all over the MSM tomorrow.
For Republicans, it doesn't matter if it's true or not. It will just be the topic of every conversation.
The fact that they were paid off means nothing. The fact that they were 5 figure deals means nothing. Organizations, including state and federal organizations, find it cheaper to get rid of the pests rather than drag out litigation.
The women, who are UNNAMED, were "offended" by things they said Cain did.
The description of what he did is "conversations allegedly filled with innuendo or personal questions of a sexually suggestive nature," and "physical gestures that were not overtly sexual but that made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable and that they regarded as improper in a professional relationship."
And the leftists' dirty laundry will remain hidden as long as they can hide it.
Or until the law catches up with them.
This is becoming a regular thing for the press, kinda like a Sunday night news dump. Of course, for the White House that would be a FRIDAY night news dump, which the press would dutifully not cover then.
But this is fodder for the week to start, of course.
AFTERTHOUGHT: I should have added when I wrote this that this particular "leak" has the hallmarks of RINOs. Who benefits this early in the primary in knocking out Herman Cain? Not necessarily the left. The MSMs behavior in all this is despicable, however.
That said, one has to wonder what a "physical gesture" that was not "overtly sexual" looks like and why this would make someone uncomfortable.
The heated accusations of sexual harassment by women and so-called feminists began with Thomas, but somehow ended politically with...Clinton. Now they're back again.
Cain said he was ready for the "high tech lynching."
