(Reuters) - Allegations that Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain sexually harassed women in the 1990s have begun to damage his bid for the White House, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

The poll showed the percentage of Republicans who view Cain favorably dropped 9 percentage points, to 57 percent from 66 percent a week ago.

Seriously, I searched the headlines on FR before I posted this. If it’s been posted prior, I apologize.

Your accuser is wrong. You posted it less than ten minutes after Reuters published it.

lol! Careful what you wish for. Some of your fellow Perry worshipers think they are meaningless.

And yes, I will post them until after the election is over but you shouldn't hold your breath hoping RINO Rick ever makes it out of the gutter.

The polls are turning on Cain, and so is his temper. I posted the first of many. You don’t lie about a sex scandal and rise in the polls unless you’re Bill Clinton. More Cain temper tantrums: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRa624MKq0s

Perry is exactly the pro-illegal immigrant career politician liberal he's showed with words, and actions. Supporting anyone other than Cain is supporting Romney, who will then lose to Obama, at this point in the race. I have a feeling a lot of the Perry supports are obvious Romney supporters in disguise because it's obvious Perry is finished, and can only hurt Cain, but has no chance whatsoever to win the nomination.

It is the truth...

And that's your proof that Cain sexually assulted women? Because he said 'excuse me' in a stern voice to some idiot reporter? Like I said, aligning yourself with leftists is a poor strategy on your part.

Herman Cain can yell at reporters. He can spit in their drinks. He can turn around and moon them for all I care.

They are the enemy and he is attacking them full force like no candidate has for ages.

I like this guy. I am still undecided but Cain is looking better and better to me each day.

BP thinks Cain is being uppity.

Nor were you even accused of it. See post#55.

If that happens, they will be posted. Your candidate has 59 days before the voting begins. He is still falling in the polls; his negatives are through the roof. I cannot see any way for him to even get back to double digits.

Provide proof that Cain lied about these anonymous allegations.

Mind you, we don’t even know what the allegations are so I am not exactly sure how you or anyone else can prove he lied one way or another...but knock yourself out sport.

Having a temper isn’t comparable to supporting incentives for illegals that’s unfair to U.S. citizens. That’s laughable, and just makes you look like a Romney supporter in disguise.

All that your presence here proves is that Romney’s people were smart enough to pay off someone who registered at FR in ‘98. Otherwise, you and your ‘rick perry report’ would have been banned well before now,. Enjoy the time before management gets fed up with your nonsense.

The word among pollsters is that these allegations wont sink Cain but it might have halted his momentum.

Gingrich seems to be the one slowly starting the tick upward now.

Read the article at the top:

A majority of respondents, 53 percent, believe sexual harassment allegations against Cain are true despite his denials. Republicans were less likely to believe they are true, with 39 percent thinking they are accurate.

This is politics. When 53% say you're lying, you're lying.

I did and you were correct: “Upon graduation, Perry was commissioned in the Air Force, completed pilot training, and flew C-130 tactical airlift in the United States, the Middle East, and Europe until 1977. He left the Air Force with the rank of captain, returned to Texas, and went into business farming cotton with his father.”

But based on that, I am a better candidate for the office, having worked as an intelligence analyst under several generals: I Corps Group commander-3 star, 1st Cav., 5th Mech and 2nd Inf. Div.-2 stars as well as Presidents Carter and Reagan. That’s much more qualifying than flying an airplane.
