Welcome to the Big Stage, Herman

and to the Republican Party.

So far, Monday is shaping up to be a long day for Herman Cain amidst the sexual harassment claims against him that have surfaced, and his misfortune at having public events scheduled for today, writes Barbara Morrill.

Cain has already appeared at the American Enterprise Institute, where his hosts helpfully blocked any questions about the Politico report about Cain's alleged "sexually suggestive behavior" toward two women during his time as the head of the National Restaurant Association, but dodging the bullet may be more difficult at his next stop: the National Press Club.

Cain's campaign manager, Mark Block appeared on MSNBC earlier today and stated that Cain had "never sexually harassed anybody ever, period, end of story," but followed that up with a classic non-denial denial:

I am not personally aware of any cash settlement relating to sexual harassment charges to Mr. Cain.

Further entertainment is scheduled for later today, when Cain will appear on Fox News and, no-doubt, spout off further complaints about the "liberal media."

"And what better venue then Fox?" Morrill said.

Double whammy?

Now there are reports that Aides’ Corporation May Have Illegally Gotten Cain Campaign Off The Ground.

All of this reeks of a classic insider Republican hit job.

That's why the sexual harrassment allegations appeared in Politico.

Rove and Crew are scareder than Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, that this crackpot might actually win the nomination.

If that happens, it's Goldwater 1964 all over again. They needed to intervene so Shazam: opposition research is dropped into Politico's lap.

That liberal media is at it again?

Mark Block, Herman Cain's Chief Of Staff, Blasts Perry Campaign On Fox News (VIDEO)

Mark Block, GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain's Chief of Staff, blasted Rick Perry's campaign during an appearance Wednesday on Fox News.

"The actions of the Perry campaign are despicable," Block told Fox News' Bret Baier. Block was referring to the Cain campaign's belief that a Perry adviser who once worked for Cain during an unsuccessful 2004 Senate bid was behind the recent surfacing of sexual harassment allegations leveled at Cain.

Block told Baier that he "absolutely" believes the Perry campaign was behind the Politico story which initially brought the allegations to light.

Ann Coulter Plays the Race Card

Submitted by MeAndG on Thu, 11/03/2011 - 6:28am.

Regarding Ann Coulter's accusation that Politico is guilty of racism and her claim that it would not have run the story if Cain were not black ...

Sevastian Winters of the Yahoo! Contributor Network wrote:

Did Bill Clinton get a "white man pass" when his affairs with Gennifer Flowers were discovered? Does the name Paula Jones ring a bell? How about Monica Lewinsky? A lot of blacks jest that Bill Clinton was the first black president. Is that what they meant?

 

Surely no one has ever accused Anthony Wiener of being a black man. Yet, somehow the story was released. Ever heard of Larry Craig? Ted Haggard? How about former U.S. Senator John Edwards? Were any of those men black? If not, then why exactly were their stories released?

 

Coulter is the Michael Moore of right-winged idiots who have nothing to offer but hatred, accusations and unfounded blathering. She's a 68-pound skeleton of a joke and has no business opening her ridiculous yap about racism.
