Are you telling me not one damn "accusation" has ever surfaced when he was the CEO of Godfathers, a VP at Pillsbury, a VP a Burger King, when he was at the Department of the Navy, working at WSB Radio and Cox Communications, but you people are going to believe these idiotic accusations from an organization that can be loosely described as a bunch of political and opportunistic whores (men and women) called the NRA, a lobbyist group?

Seriously? Why is it the ONLY accusations are coming from people associated with the NRA, one who works for the Obama administration, and one lunatic from Chicago that just happens to live in David Axelrod's building?

Sorry, I was starting to buy the conspiracy that this was coming from a Republican rival. Not no mo. This has Chicago politics written all over it. ...and Texas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Virginia via Georgia are far too far from Chicago.

Seriously? It would make ZERO sense for this to come from a D until he locked up the nomination. I know it pains you to see this self inflicted wound. Just look who gains from the leak. Hell Herman himself pointed the stink eye to a guy in the Perry camp who knew it all from the time he was working for Herman on his Senate bid. Perry's DNA is all over the crime scene.

It would make TONS of sense with Obama. His only card left is race. It damn sure isn't the economy. He has nothing to run on BUT his race. This is a tactic in "The Art of War" by Sun Tsu.

Assuming the payoffs happened (and all at the NRA), I can see them being leaked by a board member at the NRA.

The NRA was likely about to throw their support behind Cain, and a liberal member of the board wouldn't have liked that. He creates a controversy and the NRA keeps their money in their pockets and their weight stationary.

Follow who benefits. The forgetful one.

The one that forgets how many states are in the Country?

I am.

Did you read Ann? I posted this yesterday if you missed it.

IT WOULD MAKE ZERO sense for them to spring it now. None. Why not sit on it til he grabs the nomination after the convention. That's when you destroy him. After he's sewn it up.

Just because it makes zero sense doens't mean some Lib didn't do it. I doubt Obama had any knowledge of it. Do you think that some Obama supporter wouldn't think this through and leak this to the press? Get real. We all know that it would make more sense to do it after/if he gets the nomination but reality is that a story like this probably couldn't be kept under wraps.

Interesting read. Can Axlerod be shot for treason?

Not if you want Romney the nominee.

Ummm...you realize he served and President and CEO of that lobbyist group full of political and opportunistic whores, right?

Of course, for 3 years. 3 years out of his 65 year life. ...and the only allegations that they can find are from those 3 years? BS.

If absolutely NOTHING happened, why would the NRA have paid off the women? I know...to avoid a trial...but if there was ZERO merit I'm sure it would have been thrown out of any court in a heartbeat. The NRA certainly would have a legal team already on the payroll, no?

As for nothing coming from his other gigs...you may have answered that question yourself by identifying the NRA as a totally different type of organization which if as you describe would have provided much greater opportunity for him to be put in situations where something might have happened.

Again, the issue for me is his handling of this. He came off as way less than truthful in the first couple days...not to mention that Politico notified his campaign of their intent to run this story over a week before they did!

Because they didn't. They got rid of her and gave her a severance package. Period.

You weren't going to vote for him anyway so what do I care about how you view his handling of the issue?

Rebel, don't ask a serious question and then get all pissy when someone tries to answer it.

You didn't answer anything. All you're doing is regurgitating the same conspiracy BS that's already been addressed. You're essentially throwing lumps of sh*t up against the wall in the hopes that some of it will stick.
