Old Black Man

This is the handiwork of the RNC not the Democrats. In spite of him being the front runner for the Republicans at this point. The kingmaker Karl Rove didn't give their prize fighter a break. He helped throw him  under the bus. The party bigwigs have invested too much money in Rick Perry and Mitt Romney. To a lesser extent even Michelle Bachman. They had to find a reason not to give Herman Cain any money. The candidate leading in the polls coming in last in campaign contributions was not a good look.  There has always been this underlying group of  Republicans that want anybody in the White house  but President Obama and Herman Cain.

I better hurry up and say this before it's old news. Herman Cain had his biggest fundraising day to date yesterday. But they haven't dropped the biggest bomb yet. Have you noticed the identity of neither of the women has been revealed? I suppose the non-disclosure provision in the settlement covered that at first. After comments made by Cain himself, that may no longer be the case. If the claims of sexual harassment alone don't derail Cain's campaign. The fact that the victims are precious white females will. If the victims turned out to be jazzy black women it won't have the same effect. It would be like a modern day Anita Hill scandal. Supporters would claim he didn't do it and he was falsely accused. Let's see what the Tea party members say when they find out it was Becky. The thought of the flirty old black man salivating over  little white women won't go over to well.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A third former employee says she considered filing a workplace complaint over what she considered aggressive and unwanted behavior by Herman Cain when she worked for the presidential candidate in the 1990s. She says the behavior included a private invitation to his corporate apartment.

She worked for the National Restaurant Association when he was its head. She told The Associated Press that Cain made sexually suggestive remarks or gestures about the same time that two co-workers had settled separate harassment complaints against him.

The employee described situations in which she said Cain told her he had confided to colleagues how attractive she was and invited her to his corporate apartment outside work. She spoke on condition of anonymity, saying she feared retaliation.

Cain's campaign declined to comment.

WASHINGTON -- Herman Cain had one of THE best fundraising days of his presidential campaign on Monday, raising $250,000 in online donations despite reports that he had been twice accused of sexual harassment.

The quarter of a million dollar haul made for "one of our best fundraising days ever," Cain's campaign chief of staff Mark Block told a D.C election-themed conference sponsored by the National Journal. Cain himself said on Laura Ingraham's radio show Tuesday that since the story broke Sunday night, "the fundraising has increased significantly."

"I'll give you this little bit of information -- and this is breaking news: yesterday with the firestorm was one of our best fundraising days online ever -- since the campaign started," he said. "One of the best ones ever, Laura."

The amount raised is a healthy sum for a campaign that has been running, for the most part, on a shoestring budget. And it appears that it was all raised without a formal fundraising push. Cain spent Monday under siege from the national press corps over reports that he had, as head of the National Restaurant Association, twice been accused of sexual harassment. Cain initially called the story false and claimed he had no knowledge of any settlement being made with his accusers. Later, he backtracked on both those statements. His campaign responded to the story in a post on its website but there was no pitch to donors attached to it.

Raising money in the wake of scandal or negative coverage is common and relatively easy for campaigns. Sympathetic supporters become generous supporters when they feel their candidate is being unfairly attacked. It's why Christine O'Donnell and Sharron Angle, Republicans who ran for Senate in Delaware and Nevada, respectively, were some of the better-financed candidates in the 2010 cycle. And it's why the damage to Cain may be limited should he make it through the first few days and should the other shoe not drop.
