I'm holding judgement for the moment Bill. I believed B. Clinton when he said, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Monica Lewinski." oops. I want to believe Cain too, but I stop short of bashing women who may have legitimate complaints.
There are now a few women coming forward, which looks bad just by the numbers. But don't people come forward in high profile cases and give false statements ... even in murder cases?
On the one hand the numbers of women seem to corroborate the issue. But a couple of things don't add up.
1) Allegations like, he made her feel uncomfortable because he noticed she was the same size as his wife? Sexual Harassment ... ??? There must have been more to it, or it is a crap allegation.
2) This groping case? A) The woman has a history, which matters to common folk even if the courts don't like it. B) Didn't N.O.W. declare, during Clinton's reign, one grope a year is fine? OK, well it's not fine with me but what does the street say?
3) Multiple allegations: Cain is a wealthy, powerful, good looking guy. Men like that who are players usually have a long list. So, where are the women who he had some degree of success with? None...makes me wonder. If one comes forward, this thing is over.
If Cain comes out of this clean, the backlash will cause his ratings to sky rocket. A clever campaign manager would spin this to advantage or even could have been behind it in a reverse conspiracy tactic. That is exactly what I thought was going on during the Danny Williams (Clinton's fake illegitimate black son) saga. |
