Interviewed today on KTOK’s Mullins in the Morning, Wilson, of Wilson-Perkins-Allen Opinion Research headquartered in Washington, D.C. explained he was a witness to the incident. “I was the pollster at the National Restaurant Association when Herman Cain was head of it and I was around a couple of times when this happened and anyone who was involved with the NRA at the time, knew that this was gonna come up.”

Wilson described the woman as a low level staffer who was maybe two years out of college. “This occurred at a restaurant in Crystal City (Virginia) and everybody was aware of it,” he continued. “It was only a matter of time because so many people were aware of what took place, so many people were aware of her situation, the fact she left-—everybody knew with the campaign that this would eventually come up.”

Wilson said for legal reasons, he can not discuss details of the incident. “But if she comes out and talks about it, like I said, it’ll probably be the end of his campaign.” The consultant said Cain is digging himself a deeper hole by challenging the woman. He also believes it has put the Restaurant Association in a position where it will have to release the woman from her confidentialilty agreement. “If she talks about it, I think it’ll be the end of his campaign.”

Why is that, Wilson? Did this woman file a complain against you, too?

Cain has merely followed the Clinton pattern. And, horrifyingly enough, I have seen many people here saying that if Clinton got away with it, so should Cain.

I have actually seen people here say they won’t believe it until they see the “stained blue dress.” That’s pretty dazzling, since Cain’s settlements are actually a matter of record and there was clearly some kind of problem. Even if he was such a bad boss that people only thought he was harrassing them, he should still have to address the issue.

But Cain has done nothing but lie and obfuscate since the beginning. And then he blamed his enemies, just as Clinton did. Cain should just have admitted the settlements, apologized for any real or perceived wrongdoing, and then moved on to policy (except that he knows nearly nothing about the latter).

That is from yesterday, Wilson has a dog in this race (Perry)

Here’s a question - if what Cain did was so agregious and there were so many “witnesses” why didn’t she sue and get 6 figures?

Your source, Wilson, who worked for Karl Rove, is currently a Perry pollster. He has since back tracked on his claims.

EVIDENCE not just hear say accusations that have been recanted.

Where is your EVIDENCE?

You mean like knowing if you actually goes on the record he opens himself up to a slander suit? Those sorts of legal reasons? Nice try smear-bot. Rumor and hearsay are not evidence.

Nice try. Repeating hearsay and rumor is not evidence.

WHERE is the proof? Not just rumor and hearsay and accusations. Provide proof.
