Pretty nice headline.
Poll: Majority of Likely Voters Say They Were Sexually Harassed by Cain

That site is actually pretty funny overall Boutons. Thanks for the link.
Cooler talk:
http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/...ain-sexual-ha/According to a source who is friends with the Cain campaign, not only is the Rick Perry campaign involved but also the Mayor of Chicago and former Obama White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is likely involved with the sexual harassment accuser attacks. A friend of the Cain campaign believes a National Restaurant Association (NRA) employee out of the Chicago office leaked the story to the Perry campaign via information and influence from Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office.
Not really if he is form certain circles in Georgia.
huh?
Certain segments of the south talk like that. Most of them are white and hes not so its odd but thats where that comes from.
Source?
Something particular about GA dialect would be nice, otherwise I'm gonna call BS on that.
My life? if you choose to not believe me then fine but there are a bunch of people in VA, the Carolinas, and Georgia that talk like that. Go to a Daughters of the Confederacy or whatever that group is called meeting and you will see it.
I am not saying it is desirable behavior but its there.
Anecdotal generalizations rock.
Sure take it with a grain of salt. I don't really care. That being said popular culture especially pre-1990 are full of examples. Gone with Wind, Kilmer as Doc Holliday etc. I personally think its condescending bull when i have encountered it.
I am not saying that all whites or any other subset in those southern states behave in that manner just that some do. I am not generalizing any subset. If anything I am defining a subset. If you want to believe there is no segment of those societies that behave like that and Cain comes from outer space then fine.
It's very unprofessional to call a journalist darling and ask her to fix your tea, regardless of dialect.
I'm not saying people don't say darlin' in the south; I know they do. But that does not excuse unprofessional (and frankly, chauvinistic) behavior. At this level of government, demeanor matters.
Why was he asking a reporter to do that in the first place?
Doctor your own ing tea.
I don't disagree. I am not excusing the behavior. Far from it.
I actually find it quite ironic that a black man behaves in the same manner as plantation owners, the most notorious racists in the history of this country. Southern gentry indeed.
Pyjamas has specifics from anonymous sources.

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner...katrina-trinkoFormer NRA Pollster: If Cain Accuser Allowed to Speak, Could ‘End … Campaign’
By Katrina Trinko
An Oklahoma political consultant said in a radio interview this morning that he had witnessed Herman Cain’s interactions with the woman who made the sexual harassment claims and predicted that if the woman is allowed to speak, it would “be the end of his campaign.”
Chris Wilson, who worked as a pollster at the National Restaurant Association during the time, told radio station KTOK that “This occurred at a restaurant in Crystal City (in Arlington,Virginia) and everybody was aware of it. 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.”
“If she talks about it, I think it’ll be the end of his campaign,” Wilson added.
UPDATE: Wilson is working for a pro-Perry super PAC now, and is a Perry supporter, according to Politico.
UPDATE II: Weekly Standard reports that Wilson denies he was the source of the leaks to Politico. Also, to be precise, Wilson’s firm is working for a pro-Perry super PAC.
perry goin after his "brotha"
If Cain told an employee of a former campaign of his about this, then how can he explain his supposedly not remembering about it when first asked?
this president is scared of cain

cain thinking of talking them to court
The GOP more so. Herman Cain is a sure loser.
Besides, Herman Cain isn't in it to win. He's in it to raise his profile ahead of the release of his book.
For what?
