Why I Am Done Defending Herman Cain

Even if he didn't do it, the fact that he's too dumb to know that China has nuclear weapons, or have any idea where he stands on Libya, should leave out all but the stupidest voters by now.

There are a ton of perverts in the GOP, Cain figures he will have their votes.

this is the most stupid thing I have ever heard, and I am a woman. I am supposed to judge Herman Cain......by your bosses?!! The accusers are your age, so they are creditable? So it is your AGE that determines your creditibility then? And every one of the accusers who went public has some link to a Democratic operative. Who knows what is in the background of the others who won't reveal themselves. One of the accusers lived in the same apartment house as Obama 's former chief of staff,

and the other was hired by a former senior advisor to Hillary Clinton, and that supervisor's recollection is different from her other supervisors, who seem to remember her filing complaints at her new job when she didn't get what she wanted. And guess who used to act as a spokesperson to Politico. The same woman. Wonder how Politico got the story! Obama won his election because of women voters, he can't win again unless the women vote for him again. The 5th woman claims that Cain made her feel uncomfortable when he asked her to dinner, then says he never said anything or did anything sexual the whole dinner, that is supposed to be sexual hasslement, with no sexual anything? But she complained about a bottle of wine she had to pay for. And the third and fourth accuser are probably the one and the same person, since #2's lawyer Bennett said he was called by a "Sharon" of "Chicago", but she backed out. Then a "sharon" bialek of Chicago shows up with Gloria Allred? Remember what Allred did to the woman named Meg Whitman? Gloria singlehandedly got Democrat Jerry Brown elected over Meg Whitman, even when someone in Brown's camp said Whitman was a prostitute. How's that for sexual hasslement? Bennet said he didn't have the files anymore (what lawyer loses their files, how convenient! that's like a doctor "losing" his medical records ) And #1 , or 2, or both, according to politico, Herman made gestures that were NOT sexual , but it made them, or her uncomfortable. I am so glad that nothing is vague or anonymous anymore. Herman seems to be able to sexually hassle people without being sexual. #4 says that herman did grab her, but she is bankrupt, owes the IRS and a bunch of other people money, has no job, and her current boyfriend is bankrupt, and the old boyfriend, the doctor, that she is using to confirm some of her story, left chicago with a pile of debts, including to the IRS, is getting sued , has huge gambling debts (according to court documents), and is now running a botox clinic in LA. They stand to gain in the near future with interviews and book deals. And we are supposed to disregard all this and believe them. I've heard that the Bush people are pushing to get romney elected. Why don't you Bush people let the voters decide who their gop candidate is, instead of choosing for us!

If Cain had done those things it would NOT just come to surface now, no woman would have stayed silent about those things and not have ruined his career back then when the alleged offenses happened. Some people are just so gullible they can't think for themselves at all.

You, Ms. Cary, must be a little "high.." On your horse, that is. As a woman, I'm surprised that you can look at Sharon Bialeck, in particular, and not immediately see a gold-digging attention whore. Yes, Sexual Harassment IS embarrassing - which is why sane women in America are shaking their heads when a giggling, silly woman with her super credible attorney, Gloria Allred, standing stoically by, suddenly feels so embarrassed by her alleged sexual ASSAULT, that after 15 years, she flounces up in front of the media to recount her obviously fabricated story - all the while, flipping her hair and wiggling around like she's got the "itch." Come ON! You're tired of defending Herman Cain? What makes you think you are in any position to defend him? Have you really met one person who actually believes this cornball of a woman? Can you really listen to this woman and believe a word she says? Do her statements, coupled with her behavior, seriously make any sense at all to you? I suggest you watch her interviews and mute the t.v. - what would her body language say to you? Then, replay with sound only and no video - do her words sound honest to you? A sexual assault calls for police intervention, not a press conference some 15 years after the fact when it's your word against your attacker's. And all because she's so noble that she just wants him to "come clean and move on?" Please. If you are so exhausted from defending Mr. Cain based on the allegations of this mentally & financially unstable guttersnipe, then you may want to reassess your "associates." You may also never try to pursue a career in investigative journalism - you are not a "natural."

A leopard cannot change his spots! If Mr. Cain was this type of man, he would have issues from his entire career, not just from one (1) employment opportunity. Who, at the NRA benefits from this? It is a hack job and I don't buy it!

I am a woman and I STAND WITH HERMAN CAIN!

Shame on all conservative women who rather believe the story of a fame seeking puppet, dragging a respectable man through the mud, than looking at the facts and form your own conclusion. I always thought conservative women had their heads screwed on right, I guess I was wrong. All it takes is a mud slinging machine and hup, there they go, following it's trail like geese in a row. Bah, Bah, Bah.

If Mr. Cain really had done what that Bialek woman says, she would not call it harassment, she would call it assault. He supposedly put a hand on her head and pushed her down, that is assault. Give me a break. If Mr. Cain did this , he would be a sexual pervert, a deviant, a power lusting creep. Nothing, nothing in his past indicates that he is. And nobody in his right mind would do a thing like this, being in the position he was at the time. You would have to be a crazed maniac to act like that and risk all you have worked for all your life. This is such a made up story, it stinks to high heaven. This statement of her needs to be scrutinized to the minute, where it was, who was there, when. Let's stand up for Mr. Cain and give him the moral support he needs right now. I say: Herman Cain for president! I do not believe one word of this story!
