Go ahead and give me a bitch slap. I can take it.
Besides, this one was just too easy to pick. I actually had called Glo's office last week and got one of those "can't confirm or deny" routines, so I made my prediction then. Let me explain.
When the story broke out, I called Allred's office as a journalist from GOP Congress.org. When I got the front desk, I simply asked if Gloria had taken a client in the Herman Cain issue. Had they thought there was no merit, they would have simply put me through to a voicemail. The fact I got Allred's main assistant right away, the Tuesday (one full business day) after the Politico hit piece occurred and gave me the ccod statement, meant that indeed her office was actively trying to locate, secure, create legal protections, and negotiate a hefty sum for her client.
Allred knows how to play the drip, drip, drip game of sustained media release for maximum damage. She will get her money from the DNC slush fund laundered any different number of ways to pay for this obvious hit piece, just like she did for Meg Whitman's maid. Only this time, she's going against the Tea Party candidate whose approval among the ENTIRE GOP party, NOT just the conservative/Tea Party base, is close to 80%.
