Cain Accuser's Lawyer Said Case "Leaked to Politico by a Board Member of Natl Restaurant Assoc"
CNN ^ | 11-01-2011 | Montag813

Posted on 11/01/2011 5:42:13 PM PDT by montag813

The lawyer for one of the Cain accusers, Joel P. Bennett, just told the panel on Anderson Cooper's CNN show that it was "his understanding" that the allegation was "leaked to Politico from a Board member of the National Restaurant Association".

Could it have been the former President of the NRA who took over after Cain left, who is a Romney supporter?

Why would the NRA want to stop a pro-gun republican in favor of a anti-gun RINO?

Could you add “National Restaurant Association” to the title so people (like me) don’t have a seizure thinking that the National Rifle Association was involved in this?

I second this request!

To be honest I’m sick of all the political BS. The news media is nothing more then an outlet for the party they associate with. As for CNN you can guess who that is.

I’m not supporting anyone at this point, I want to see who is weeded out over the next few months and whoever it is we get I doubt I’ll be satisfied and I’ll succumb to the lesser of two evils.

The President is nothing more then a figurehead and he’ll abide by what congress tells him to if there’s a majority we need. Our true battle is with congress.

Of course a President that can lead with a set of balls helps.

It's possible, but I wouldn't be the least surprised if it were Obama, his minions, or his puppermasters. Obama has a long history of destroying political opponents so he has never really run against strong opposition.

So it could be an "establishment republican," this this seems to have the fingerprints of Obama all over it.

LOL....... That isn’t all that unusual around here. Heck I’ve fallen into that trap a few times along with skimming and not getting the correct meaning.

The Cain leak hurts Romney. Somebody else is behind this. It benefits Perry most.

herman said tonight that it could have come from either democrats or republicans.

Well duh! Why would republicans drop a dime on a fellow republican after he played the race card on a fellow member? Newt is beginning to look like the only republican I could vote for. Maybe Cain can sell a bunch of books and get another job at the Fed

I agree. As I stated on an earlier thread, if this had been the dims, it would have been leaked October 31, 2012.

Romney benefits from infighting between Perry and Cain for the conservative vote.

My bet is on Perry.

“Could it have been the former President of the NRA who took over after Cain left, who is a Romney supporter?”

As they hinted at on O’Reilly tonight, if it comes out that ANY of the candidates for the nomination had a hand in this, this will destroy their campaign. I pray to God that it was Romney and that it comes out.

Then the Restaurant Association violated the confidentiality agreement. Cain and his campaign should stop answering questions on this matter. The news media can go research its own stories. Cain owes them nothing.

I like Cain, but can he go two hours without giving an interview? He needs cool it on the interviews. He’s giving the story a life of it’s own. Who’s advising this man? My prediction, if Cain doesn’t give it rest, and give no more interviews, stick a fork in him he’s done. Every time he’s interviewed he seems to say something he didn’t say before. Did he go to the Anthony Wiener school of journalism?

All Politico material must be excerpted. 320 words is not a proper excerpt. Please feel free to post that article as a thread and be sure to excerpt it. Thanks.
