Desperation: The High Tech Lynching of Uppity Herman Cain Begins

Politico sicks no less than FOUR reporters onto vague nearly 20 year old allegations to smear new GOP Frontrunner Herman Cain.

So desperate are the powers that be to bring down this uber-successful black businessman, that they are doing a Clarence Thomas on him, complete with sketchy allegations such as: a woman “accused him of innuendo or personal questions of a sexually suggestive nature” and conversations that were regarded as “improper in a professional relationship.” Can you possibly be any more vague?

A few weeks ago a group of “feminists” commemorated the 20th anniversary of dopey fraudster Anita Hill’s pathetic testimony at the Thomas hearings, as if she is some sort of suffragette of the 90s. Now, some in the political “good ‘ol boy network” are falling over themselves to put out this nothing of a story. Towards the end of their hit piece, they stated that most of the employees that worked for Cain said he was “extremely professional” and “fair” to female staffers, and

Cain’s treatment of women was “the same as his treatment of men. Herman treated everyone great,” said Mary Ann Cricchio, who was elected to the board of the restaurant group in 1998. She said Cain left such a good impression on the organization that when he spoke at a group event in January of this year, as he was considering a presidential bid, “he had unanimous support in the room.”
The only actual names and actual statements were that Cain was fair and professional. There are no names, dates or any solid evidence whatsoever for the innuendo, vague comments and phantom “female employees” that “settled for 5 figures”.

Do not be fooled. this is NOT a leftist attack.

The Republican elites are clearly spooked big time by Herman Cain, who has catapulted into shocking leads in the Iowa, South Carolina and Florida polls, and within striking distance of Romney in New Hampshire - a state Mitt has always assumed he would win by double digits. And so they are feeding this tripe to the Washington media vultures they alternatively joust with and seduce to maintain their corruptocracy. Mitt Romney and Rick Perry would fit right in with Karl Rove and his merry band of RINOs. Herman Cain would most defintely not. And so, he must be taken out.

But on what bait would the Leftist Media bite? Why of course - the same tired racist sexual stereotypes they used against Clarence Thomas, which one would have thought would be verboten in today's climate. But for the Left, a "Black Conservative" (just as with a Hispanic conservative - ask Marco Rubio), has committed "race betrayal" - a capital offense. So they are more than happy to play along.

Conservatives need to remember well how those elites on our side have conspired with the Leftist press to try and take down this great American, Herman Cain. They need to be swept from control of the GOP, once and for all. As Vito Corleone would say: "this I will not forgive".

Dang it! Herman’s pulled the race card. Thought better of him. Didn’t like it when Clarence did it either.

It IS racism: from the true racists on the LEFT.

This brings me back to 1991. I’m very, very skeptical of these charges. IMHO, the burde of proof is on the accusers, but I expect that the MSM will slaim otherwise.

POLITICO may as well be Barack Obama’s Official Website.

Along with all the "Independent" posters on Politco who make Karl Marx look like Ronald Reagan.

These allegations are going to be headlines every day until Cain either quits or wins the Presidency.

The Dems,their MSM and the RINOs will not let this go no matter how ridiculous and lame the story is.

Every question hurled at him from now on will be various versions of a mendacious premise such as, “Mr Cain,are you still a rapist!?!?”

He is going to have to use the Clinton,”We have already covered that and need to “move on.” Or,”No personal attack ever fed a hungry child.”

Good points you make, and I'll make a prediction of my own:

The more the leftists, 'Rats and RINOs beat this lame drum of 'sexual misconduct' or whatever-the-hell they're ginning up here, the more that black voters are going to begin viewing Herman Cain in an even MORE positive light.

The scumbags responsible for this smear campaign are sowing the seeds of a massive electoral apocalypse next year, and I believe that this is going to backfire (as former VP Dick Cheney would say) BIG TIME.

They got nothing this time. Watch for the fracture and the attempt to shift off of Obama. Obama owns it and he is a dictator. Watch the media hustle around and have the story everywhere. It’s coming

He’s drunk Carl, ignore him. He said ‘good night’ and like any drunken sot, he can’t find the exit.

Now he’ll whine about ‘Freeper Etiquette’.

I think this attack on Cain is BS.

All I wish to do is illustrate how folks her forgive anything he does and condemn Rick Perry’s even handed record of governance

This attack on Herman Cain is coordinated and brought forth by the following, “Politico”, the Democrat Party establishment, The Republican Party establishment, the left-wing, Barack Hussein Obama, Karl Rove, the left-wing media, etc. Why? Very simple!!! If, say, Herman Cain becomes the POTUS candidate for the GOP and selects Marco Rubio for his VP running mate, he devastates, massively defeats Obama at the polls, come November, 2012. But, he also, and more importantly dismantles the current Democrat Party, who, IMHO will suffer massive political losses at the ballot box. Mr. Cains election would be anothe massive change in American direction and politics. Coupled with the votes of Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, other minorities, etc., Mr. Cain and Mr. Rubio will destroy the very fabric of “special groups” that hold the Democrat Party in power. Have you all noted the recent heavy attacks on Marco Rubio by the Washington Post newspaper. The political elites are frightened out of their minds, and, as such will do anything to destroy both Herman Cain & Marco Rubio. Who is the racist, the destroyer, the hater, now , America??? A story with no names, no facts, no substantiation is not a story, IMHO!!!

I favor Perry because he actually has a record of even handed governance.

As to the out of Character business, I am just trying to rub some noses in it.
