Questions Herman Cain Needs to Answer

I have been harrassed by men like Herman Cain many times. They get some power and it seems to go to their crotch. He has shown he will abuse power over and over. How pathetic to think anyone would believe this is some type of plot by unconnected women. Anyone who defends Herman Cain should take a hard look at yourself to see if there is an abuser lurking inside. Women do not invite this type of attention. Invariably if you accuse men of this bad behavior it comes back to the women. Women need to smarten up and stop VOTING FOR MEN!!!! We need better representation.

I thought the article would be about sexual harrassment questions he needs to answer. How about his lying about there being settlement with two alleged claims, his emphatic statement, 'come forward", someone came forward, where's that at now? In the courts for violating a gag order? Why is his wife giving an interview if not to deflect news about him?

Understand why this is a scanle at all.

The 90 percent black vote for Democrats is like money in the bank on election day. A prominent black conservative who offers an alternative view of the world is a serious danger politically, because if that alternative view has the net effect of reducing the black vote for Democrats just to 75 percent, the Democrats are in big trouble at election time.

TJ Ward an investigator in Atlanta for insurance fraud used a technique called "Sequntial Voice analysis" to analysis both statements. This method has been found to be more than 95% accurate far more than polygraphs. Used frequently to uncover insurance fraud. He found Cain's statement to be 100% correct. Bialek's statement about what occured was found to be false. Bring the PROOF!!!!

I believe that saying "We don't know enough about Mr. Cain" is an understatement! What we know about him so far is, in my opinion, "the tip of the iceberg," as I shall elaborate later.

Watching Herman Cain proclaiming his innocence on national TV yesterday, I had a flashback to similar TV appearances and proclamations of innocence by convicted former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich! The only difference among their denials was the language. Blagojevich used to say "I don't recall," whereas Herman Cain said "I don't remember that woman!" Both Blagojevich and Cain stood repeatedly before the national press and TV crews or TV shows and claimed to be the victims of liars, disgruntled partners or associates, or, in Cain's case victim of a "troubled woman!"

Blagojevich was accused of 24 counts of corruption, convicted in Federal Court on 17 counts by a jury, and his sentencing is set on December 4, 2011. We have to wait and see how many Merry Christmas he will spend in a federal prison. One down!

Herman Cain is accused of 4 counts of inappropriate sexual behavior, and we the people will be the jury. His moral and ethical fabric has been tainted, and he tries feverishly to launder the allegations before they shred his campaign. His opponent, Governor Perry, called him a "slick speaker," and he seems to be able to strike his listeners with a "telemarketing style" fast talk. He keeps telling his audiences that he is running to serve the people, while his past tells us that it was all about ingratiating himself! I believe that there are many more women out there that have had bad experiences with Mr. Cain, but they would rather stay anonymous than drag their names into Mr. Cain's national mud-pit.
