I hope these charges are not true. But if it's not true, then Cain should be able to successfully show some kind of facts that counter the lies.
However, if any of this were true the best thing Cain could have done from the get go would have been to belly up, admit the wrong doing, and show that he's changed his heart and actions. But we're now down the road of denial. I hope this stuff isn't true but if any of it is, at this point, I think he's got a problem.
If they are indeed lies, how does one do that, exactly?
If it never happened, what kind of "facts" would convince you otherwise?
I heard four accounts where PapaNew molested young women.
How are you going to deal with this set of facts? You have a real problem now, based on your logic.
If this stuff is true, it would be fatal.
BTW...... denial is not a road, it’s a river.
If the charges are false, all Cain can do is say so and say he will not respond any further.
There is no way to “prove” any of this one way or the other, and it is long past time for us and our candidates to stop jumping just because the LSM says “jump.”
The Dems set the bar and were fine with a rapist/serial sexual assaulter in the White House. Do I want that in our candidate? No. But in the meantime, while we figure stuff out, they have lost any grounds whatsoever for trying to claim we have to prove anything.
Like what, exactly? Negative proofs are famously hard to come by. She says that they were alone, no one else to confirm or deny her story. So, the setup is this: who do you believe? It's the classic he said/she said. No way to affirmatively prove, or disprove.
That's the beauty of these kinds of allegations. After 15 years, it's difficult to come up with objective evidence that something did or did not happen. Therefore, it comes down to credibility and inference.
I am not convinced that her tail is true. I am also not convinced of the denial - although it has the strength of directness on its side.
I am reserving judgment, but am inclined to give the benefit of the doubt to Cain.
