Perry Camp Denies Leaking Cain Harassment Story, Fingers Romney Campaign
Post Date: 2011-11-02 19:58:50 by Skip Intro

A spokesman for Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s campaign is adamantly denying that members of the GOP presidential candidate's staff leaked a story has swamped Herman Cain's campaign this week. Instead, the Perry camp is pointing a finger at the campaign of another rival Republican, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, as a possible source of the report about the sexual-harassment charges levelled a decade ago against Cain by female subordinates at the National Restaurant Association. In an interview with Forbes, Cain suggested that the source of the story, first reported by Politico, was Curt Anderson, a consultant who now works for Perry. “That is false, patently untrue; ...

President Barack Obama gained support among voters in October, according to an independent poll showing him with improved job-approval ratings and strength in contests against Republicans campaigning for his office in 2012. The 47 percent job-approval recorded for Obama in a Quinnipiac University poll of voters conducted Oct. 25-31 is up from 41 percent in a similar survey released Oct. 6. The percentage of voters voicing disapproval of his performance is down to 49 percent from 55 percent. Voters are statistically divided over the question of whether the Democrat deserves a second term, with 47 percent saying yes in the survey and 49 percent no. That compares with 54 percent who said ...
Cain Accuser Got a Year’s Salary in Severance Pay [Full Thread]

WASHINGTON — The National Restaurant Association gave $35,000 — a year’s salary — in severance pay to a female staff member in the late 1990s after an encounter with Herman Cain, its chief executive at the time, made her uncomfortable working there, three people with direct knowledge of the payment said on Tuesday. The woman was one of two whose accusations of sexual harassment by Mr. Cain, now a Republican candidate for president, led to paid severance agreements during his 1996-99 tenure at the association. Disclosure of the scale of the severance further challenged his initial description of the matter as a “witch hunt,” as did new descriptions from the ...
What's wrong with Rick? Bizarre video shows a 'rambling, incoherent' Governor Perry

Rick Perry has got people talking - but for all the wrong reasons. The GOP presidential candidate gave a speech in Manchester, New Hampshire, on Friday night which has prompted concerns from his fans and criticism from his opponents. In it, he appears to be unusually expressive, rambling and sometimes even incoherent. His tone and pitch verge from the manic to the sombre and subdued as he puts on strange voices and waves his arms in the air. Audience members at the speech to the Cornerstone Action group said the Texas governor appeared extremely excited when he talked about the tax code, Herman Cain, the New Hampshire state slogan and even at one stage maple syrup. Mimics: He joked ...

Mr. Cain has hardly shown up in New Hampshire and Iowa, they said, spending the bulk of his time on a book tour through the South. He occasionally mishandled potential big donors or ignored real voters. His campaign churned through the small staff; last week, his campaign announced the appointment of the veteran campaigner Steve Grubbs, his third Iowa leader in four months. Even bumper stickers have been hard to come by. And then there was that e-mail to the staff about traveling in a car with Mr. Cain: “Do not speak to him unless you are spoken to,” the memo said. “I found it odd,” said a former staff member who liked to prep Mr. Cain for appearances while driving. ...
Perry says he opposes Confederate license plate

Weighing into a racially charged controversy for the first time, Gov. Rick Perry said Wednesday that he opposes the creation of a Confederate license plate in Texas. "We don't need to be scraping old wounds," Perry told Bay News 9 in Tampa, Fla. With a decision on the vanity plate pending before the state Department of Motor Vehicles' governing board, made up of Perry appointees, Wednesday's development hinted that a vote by the panel that had been expected next month might not occur. Board officials gave no indication whether it would still be on the agenda, as was earlier announced. With the support of Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson, the specialty plate has ...

ST PETE BEACH - Texas governor Rick Perry clarified Wednesday that he has no doubt that Barack Obama was born in the U.S., saying that he was only kidding around when he voiced doubts in a TV interview earlier this week. Perry made the comments in an exclusive Political Connections interview to air Sunday on Bay News 9. He was at the Tradewinds Island Grand resort in St. Pete Beach for a $1,000-per person breakfast fundraiser that drew about 50 people. In the interview he touted his new tax proposal for an optional 20 percent tax plan, saying it was superior to businessman Herman Cain's flat tax proposal because it does not include a national sales tax. Perry, 61, is trying to revive ...

WASHINGTON — The Republican Party is catching flat-tax fever — and setting up an epic election-year fight with Democrats over whether wealthier Americans should pay higher taxes or get tax cuts. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney became the latest to punch the tax button Wednesday, telling a Virginia audience that he'll soon update his economic proposal to spell out ways to flatten the tax code. His vow came just a day after rival Rick Perry grabbed headlines and talk-show chatter with a proposal for an optional flat 20 percent tax on income. Both followed Herman Cain's pitch for a flat 9 percent income tax as part of his 9-9-9 plan, which helped him jump to ...

House GOP wants to waive environmental laws on U.S. borders

WASHINGTON — In a move aimed at improving national security, House Republicans want to give the U.S. Border Patrol unprecedented authority to ignore 36 environmental laws on federal land in a 100-mile zone stretching along the Canadian and Mexican borders. If the legislation is approved, the Border Patrol would not have to comply with the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Air Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Solid Waste Disposal Act and 32 other federal laws in such popular places as Olympic National Park, Glacier Park, the Great Lakes and the Boundary Waters Wilderness Area. Under the GOP plan, the Border Patrol would have free rein to do such things as build roads and ...

Ron Paul: End U.S. student loans
Post Date: 2011-10-23 14:37:13 by We The People

WASHINGTON — Republican presidential contender Ron Paul said Sunday he wants to end federal student loans, calling it a failed program that has put students $1 trillion in debt when there are no jobs and when the quality of education has deteriorated. Paul unveiled a plan last week to cut $1 trillion from the federal budget that would eliminate five Cabinet departments, including education. He’s also wants young workers to be able to opt out of Social Security. The student loan program is not part of those cuts, but Paul said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he’d kill the loan program eventually if he were president. That could put him at odds with some ...

Meet the Guy Who Snitched on Occupy Wall Street to the FBI and NYPD The Occupy Wall Street protests have been going on for a month. And it seems the FBI and NYPD have had help tracking protesters' moves thanks to a conservative computer security expert who gained access to one of the group's internal mailing lists, and then handed over information on the group's plans to authorities and corporations targeted by protesters. Since the Occupy Wall Street protest began on September 17, New York security consultant Thomas Ryan has been waging a campaign to infiltrate and discredit the movement. Ryan says he's done contract work for the U.S. Army and he brags on his blog that he ...

Ron Paul loyalists have been vindicated. After months of observations that the mainstream media was ignoring the libertarian standard-bearer, a new study by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism shows just that: the Texas Congressman, who has consistently polled in the high single digits -- Real Clear Politics's aggregate poll currently has him at 8 percent -- has received the least overall coverage of any candidate. From May 2 to October 9, Paul appeared as the "primary newsmaker in only 2% of all election stories."

Pundits and political professionals seem increasingly confident that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will be the Republican Party’s presidential nominee next year — but conservative skeptics are still not reconciled to that scenario. Their suspicion of Romney remains strong, for well-known reasons — in short, his shifts of position on social issues and the healthcare reform package he enacted in Massachusetts — and they are insistent that he can yet be vanquished in his bid to become the GOP’s standard-bearer. If that does not happen, they say, they will reluctantly vote for him over President Obama. But their real focus will shift from the national race to ...
Romney's Rise Challenges Tea Party's Clout In GOP

Mitt Romney's early success in the Republican presidential race is challenging the tea party's clout. Will it continue to pull the GOP sharply right? Will it slowly fade? Or merge with mainstream Republican elements in a nod to pragmatism, something it's hardly known for? On the surface, Romney's strength seems at odds with the tea party's fiery success in ousting Republicans seen as compromisers, and in making the House GOP caucus more ideological, even when its leaders plead for flexibility. Romney defends the government's 2008 bank bailouts, plus the mandated health insurance he initiated as Massachusetts governor. He says he can work with "good ...

WASHINGTON — Former pizza executive Herman Cain has vaulted to the lead of Republican presidential contenders in a national poll released Wednesday. The new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll gave Cain, known for blunt talk and his succinct “9-9-9" tax-slashing plan, 27 percent of likely Republican primary voters. It was the first major poll showing Cain grabbing the lead from former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, who was pushed into second place with 23 percent in the phone survey. The pollsters queried 1,000 adults between October 6-10, of which 336 identified themselves as Republicans, who were then asked about their preferred candidate. Cain has seen a jump of 22 ...

Last night’s GOP Debate went for two hours with largely no new points brought up or any sharp criticisms delivered. That was until late in the event when Congressman Ron Paul challenged up-and-comer Herman Cain over his stance on the Federal Reserve. Given the recent economic turmoil erupting in America, more and more citizens are rallying for a regular audit of the Fed — a statistic Ron Paul says is evident in more than three-fifths of America. As a result, Congressman Paul pinned a question regarding the central bank on pizzaman Herman Cain, a former bigwig with the Kansas City Fed. "Mr. Cain, in the past you have been rather critical of any of us who would want to audit ...

Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, is holding on to his support but failing to increase it significantly, according to the survey, which also showed President Barack Obama facing deep unhappiness among voters about his performance. Romney was backed by 23 percent of Republicans in the October poll, up from 20 percent in the most recent comparable Reuters/Ipsos poll carried out in June. Cain, a businessman who has emerged as a surprise front-runner after proposing a radical tax reform, nearly tripled his support among Republicans in the same period, leaping to 19 percent from 7 percent four months ago.

Chris Christie To Endorse Romney by Jake Gibson | October 11, 2011 Mitt Romney will score another major endorsement Tuesday afternoon when New Jersey Gov Chris Christie will announce he is backing the former Massachusetts Governor's White House run. The announcement will take place in Hanover, New Hampshire, just hours before the latest GOP presidential debate takes place at Dartmouth University. The plain-spoken Christie has become a darling of establishment Republicans by slashing spending and fighting unions in New Jersey and was repeatedly urged to make a presidential run of his own for months. This is another key endorsement for Romney who also won the backing of former ...
