It wasn't that long ago that a sitting President settled with one Paula Jones for $850,000, the entire amount of her claim, with no apology and no admission of guilt.

The irony is that the same media types calling for Cain to step aside, were nearly silent when it was Clinton....

I understand that and Im right there with you. But if what we've heard today is a preview of the 5 pm presser, then Im sorry, I can not support him.

He had a brief encounter with her just a month ago and now says he doesnt remember her. He's given me little reason to keep supporting him.

But I agree with you in regards to the media. The media are absolutely disgusting complicit when it fits their agenda pieces of trash. They make me sick.

The hammer is going to fall sooner or later.

Herman Cain accuser identified – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs

Women who alleged past harassment by Cain may hold joint press conference in the future. Sorry, but guilty or not, he is done.

If he did ANYTHING he better say it at 5, if not give out details. Either way, I dont think he can save himself. IMO, he just needs to bow out.

^^^^^ That is what is disgusting. The 'family value' party defends creepy men who grope, and sexually harass women. Disgusting. These supporters are such disgusting hypocrites.

There will probably be more women who come forward. Men who behave like Cain are quite common, and this type of thing happens regularly. Already, there are four, guaranteed there will be more.

I agree with you both. He does not seem up to the brutal bloodsport of Presidential politics. I still believe he is a good man, but national politics is a brutal, nasty, debasing game.

As long as he's in the headlines, he's selling books.

The book tour-- ooops, I mean 'Presidential bid' -- will continue.
