One of the women who accused GOP presidential contender Herman Cain of sexual harassment in the 1990s said she wants to go public — now that her name has been revealed — and hold a joint news conference with all of the women making similar allegations.

Karen Kraushaar, 55, an employee with the Treasury Department’s inspector general office, said she never wanted her name to be made public as one of Cain’s accusers. But a news organization published her name Tuesday and she now says she is ready to go before cameras.

“I am interested in a joint press conference for all the women where we would all be together with our attorneys and all of these allegations could be reviewed as a collective body of evidence,” Kraushaar told The Washington Post.

The Post learned Kraushaar’s name last week., but did not publish it, honoring her wishes to remain private.

When The Daily made her name public, she said she realized that she could not keep her identity private any longer.

The Daily Names One Cain Accuser, And She Works In The Obama Administration

[Marine_Uncle]

This crap is getting out of hand.

[A Conservative Voice]

“Last Thursday, Kraushaar read a statement in a senior staff meeting telling colleagues that she was the woman accusing Cain of sexual harassment, according to the source. During the meeting, Kraushaar asked colleagues not to discuss the matter publicly, but said she wanted them to know about it.”

Translation. She really really really wanted to go public but did not want to seem to eager. Hence the reason she shared not only through her attorney but to her co workers. Dang those people for keeping her identity private. Morons! Plan B, get her brother in law to oust her to a newspaper. Yeah, she really really really wanted to remain private.

[Leep]

They should submit to lie detector test or shut up!

[NoGrayZone]

If the allegations are true, she would NOT need a posse of other “victims” to back her up.

She won’t step out alone because she knows the rectum exam coming to her as they did to the one who just came out......and that one just started.

Lies will ALWAYS be exposed. May take a while, but it ALWAYS rears it’s head.

Bring it on biotches!

From the timeline given, it looks like she's worked as a federal civil servant under the Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations.

FROM DEMOCRACTIC UNDERGROUND:

"Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain’s second public accuser, Karen Kraushaar, has a powerful defender with a big megaphone: Maria Cardona, a Democrat and one of the most prominent lobbyists in Washington.

SNIP “She said to me, You know Maria, I’ve always been grateful to you for hiring me and now you know why: because you saved me from that monster,” Ms. Cardona said Tuesday in an interview with Washington Wire.

Ms. Cardona said she was going public to protect the reputation of her former colleague at the INS after seeing the attacks Ms. Bialek is already weathering. From her perch as a CNN commentator and frequent guest on other news shows, Ms. Cardona will have plenty of opportunities to speak out."

ACCUSER IS FRIEND AND FORMER COLLEAGUE OF HIGH POWERED DEMOCRAT LOBBYIST AND COMMENTATOR.

[canuck_conservative]

we would all be together with our attorneys and all of these allegations could be reviewed as a collective body of evidence,” Kraushaar told The Washington Post

In other words, each individual claim is so flimsy as to be laughable, so they need each other's company to make it look like a pattern.

It's over, beeyotch. Your Chicago Smear-Machine lost, Cain won. Time to move on.

Lol,,, they really don’t get it. I don’t care if hes on video, cracking her across the ass while he chases her around the desk. Doesn’t matter compared to the economy, or the stopping of Americas socialist revolution.

I believe Cain's press conference today pre-empted all of this. He has addressed these allegations and can simply refer them back to the press conference.

Herman Cain spoke directly to them (particularly Bialek's) and denied them categorically. He has made it clear from this press conference and from his releases that he understands that Bialek is troubled (and any casual review of her history is indicative of this) and being used...and thereby sends a signal to her and to her ambulance-chasing, publicity and politically motivated lawyer that he can get a lot more junk yard mean about it if they continue to slander him.

IMHO, he did very well and can now, as I said, in the fuuture, (and to the never ending chagrin of these MSM elitists and enemies)refer any questions about these incidents to date back to this press conference and its transcript and continue on with his campaign.

But the left and others hate him and are threatened by him and I do not believe they will stop. He needs to be prepared for that, and we need to support the man...both with encouragement and with any donations we can make.

He is a principled, conservative, God-fearing Christian man...and he is not a quitter or one to back down from a scrape and as a man of strong moral character and commitment to this nation, that is exactly what we need through this campaign, and in the years ahead as he and a majority House and Senate do the work necessary to take our country back.

STAND WITH HERMAN CAIN AGAINST THE SMEAR CAMPAIGNS BEING WAGED AGAINST HIM

I'm number 526 on the list.
