Bill O’Reilly On New Allegation: ‘I Don’t Think Herman Cain Can Survive Any More Of This’
Mediaite ^ | Nov.28, 2011 | Frances Martel

Posted on 11/28/2011 8:58:08 PM PST by Free ThinkerNY

While Newt Gingrich‘s unexpected rise to the top of the Republican primary ladder had taken the spotlight off of the numerous sexual allegations against Herman Cain for some time, but that problem came barreling back into headlines today as Cain himself broke the news of a new accusation: a thirteen-year affair.

On tonight’s Factor, Bill O’Reilly had some pessimistic remarks on the matter, wondering whether “Herman Cain can survive any more of this.”

Joined by panelists Leslie Marshall and Janine Turner, O’Reilly noted that on his program they were “not going to get into this,” meaning the details of the affair, but did note it “is a legitimate question” whether “Herman Cain can survive any more of this.”

The panelists expressed the same concern, as Turner noted that “especially in a conservative race, it’s going to be tough,” but that “we’ve had wonderful leaders throughout the course of our history that were great thinkers… that had affairs.”

Marshall had a more optimistic approach, noting that things look bad but “between now and November 2012 is a lifetime in politics.”

I think the subject is a big ‘yawner’. And I think the American people are sick and tired of this sort of gossipy material. The MSM has worn out this tactic.

Does Bill O’Reilly mean like Palin didn’t survive being governor, because the law suits were driving her to the poor house, plus the law suits took up so much time, she couldn’t do her job?

How much longer are conservatives going to take this without putting up a better fight!

Well, Janine. Did you ever marry the father of your children?

Either Cain is the biggest tramp in the world or the marxists are scared to death of him.

Well. I guess according to BillO, we just need to find 5 women to claim past advances by Obama and he is automatically guilty and cannot be elected next year.

I don’t think I watch Bill O’Reilly anymore.

Yup, indeed.

I don’t. Haven’t for about a year now. He’s boring.

In Cain’s defense to this point there is no evidence. Just her word against his and she has some baggage herself like that bimbo Gloria Allred put forth. Let’s just sit back and see what develops if anything. We all know that there are those on Free Republic who are supporting their own candidate and will jump on the band wagon with some smears of Herman. Screw Bill O’Reilly.

Where was O’Reilly in the nineties???????? Look who survived rape and oval office masturbation and cigar tricks and semen dresses. Sheeesh....and he thinks that the latest “allegations” against Cain mean anything????

MSM needs to realize they have lied so much—nothing they say matters....like they said in the 90’s....it’s PRIVATE BEHAVIOR.

Take the first choice. Cain was well done anyway . this is piling on. The Dems are not afraid of anyone in this group. This month it's newt next month Dole or maybe Harold Stassin.

“Herman Cain can survive any more of this.”

Heck, I am not sure he is even going to survive this event, let alone “more”.

Do you think the MSM would report it if they did? Or destroy those ladies reputations?
