You know who just came forth and claimed that Cain needs to publicly describe the actual circumstances and nature of the "Harassment"?
Wait for it . . .
Wait for it . . .
The POS Politico "journalist" who broke the story.
"There are more questions here for him to answer. He has not yet explained what exactly he was accused of. He just said that he didn't do it. But, these are serious charges," Martin said on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports."
GIVE ME A BREAK.
I see. He didn't want to say in the interview, "We're just not going to get into the details of exactly what happened with these women beside what's in the story" and now he's calling for Cain to do so?!
Set up, I'm TELLING you.
Or does the payoff for the setup come later - when Cain is on record with a full-throated denial of misconduct - and the media trots out some woman a week before the general election who says he inappropriately told her to come to his hotel room, when the reality is that he called a staff meeting in a suite?
I'm just saying - we're already seeing it - the absence of specifics will be filled with whatever the media wants this to look like. Specifics - assuming nothing untoward happened - rob them of the opportunity to portray this as something its not, AND it gives those people inclined to support him some comfort that they are not wasting their time, energy, and money.
In spite of the good arguments against it here (and from Rush, apparently) I still think complete transparency is the best thing he could do here.
We have now entered the damned if he does, damned if he don't, room. Herman Cain could have 1000 women come forward in his defense, but it does not matter. This is not about the truth. This is politics of personal destruction. They have thier red meat. This will not go away, no matter how transparent Cain becomes.
Regretfully, somebody better vette the women making the accuasions. We need an operative who will drag these women thru the mud, just or unjust, as happened to the women who clinton harrassed. We need to understand their backgrounds, where they work, what they eat, where they live, etc. I hate to encourage or suggest this, but these women better be discredited or Cain will never hear the end of it.
When you have sleaze who will break an agreement, trust me, they have skeletons in the closet....... and even at this, it may not matter to the media.
