The confidentiality agreement has been lifted, and STILL no one comes forward to say anything about Herman Cain's conduct. Meanwhile, the left wing rag Politico has run 90 STORIES smearing Cain demonstrating nothing but sleazy, racist, leftist tactics in an attempt to destroy a leading republican presidential contender because he's BLACK. The ugly, deeply rooted, racist roots of the democrat party are really rearing their nasty head on this one.

You know, when trying to get even with someone, it's generally considered a good idea to fire in the direction of the actual perpetrator of the offense in question. Otherwise, you're firing blind.
Liberals didn't have squat to do with the story. It's the RNC who doesn't want Cain to win the nomination. And EVERY other GOP candidate, of course.
Look in the direction of Karl Rove. He has a LONG history of doing things like this.
Riiiight.
Like there's no motivation for a left wing hack to "get behind" an early smear campaign effort.
If they can help pick-off the opposition's possible nominees this early, then they can fight their preferred opposition-candidate somewhere down the road.
To the limited extent that it seems likely that a Republican or two is behind the present smear campaign, I don't mind agreeing with you. But even so, that doesn't rule out the prospect that a left wing Democratic might not be offering some behind the scenes assistance. If it can be seen as something of value to them, you can bet they'd do so. Gladly. And if they can then lay the "blame" solely (but inaccurately) at the doorstep of some GOP candidate or supporter, so much the better.
Liberals would save it for the general election, assuming Cain got that far.
Republicans are trying to keep Cain from getting that far. That's why it happened when it did.
