David Trumble, senior director for corporate communications for the Hilton hotel chain, replies to my inquiry on whether Herman Cain ever rented or upgraded to a suite in their Washington hotel in July 1997: “The hotel has a privacy policy which prohibits releasing specific information regarding guests. Thank you for your understanding.”

What Cain needs to do is file a lawsuit for defamation and slander and serve the targeted accusers making these claims of sexual assault and serve them interrogatories and put them on the hot seat and get them to state their assertions under oath. Get this under oath!

No, he didn't.

Cain was accused only after he left the organization. Legally, it is actually much easier to make an accusation if the accused has already left. It drives up legal costs considerably to try to drag someone (with their own lawyers) back in to investigate and take the matter to trial.

Cain says he didn't even know about it. This is actually quite likely to be true.

Cain should be rejected for his stupid 9-9-9/9-0-9 with its dumb national sales tax and bizarre exemptions, for his lack of a real campaign organization, for his incompetent staff, for his gaffes and flipflopping.

It may be that he has handled this so poorly that people see him as unprepared. Which is the real problem with Cain.

I believe that you're right on this score.

As far as a filing a libel suit goes, as has been suggested here, Cain is a public figure and he has a higher hurdle to jump than most of us. He has to prove malice.

But, yeah he is unprepared. He's not a professional politician like Romney. This won't matter to many Republicans though. Cain supporters smell blood. They know that if they can get their man on ticket, O'bummer will be hurting in many sorts of ways.

The PTB have decreed eight years for the dope that inhabits the WH. This won't be denied by some upstart. They'll not let Cain pass. The "long knives" are indeed out.

He has to prove malice.

Anybody that says something that is false against somebody has the right to sue for slander and defamation regardless of whether they are a public figure or not. Case law does not dictate that law but reveals evidence of existing statutory law where one may exercise their right to sue provided they have proceeded in a timely manner as well as their having standing to sue and court having jurisdiction to entertain their lawsuit.

All that you say is true, but appellate decisions have come down that demand a higher standard of proof in slander and liable actions on the part of the accuser. I believe that it's characterized as "actual malice" whereas, in the case of us ordinary mortals, all that must be shown is a more or less willful publication of untrue but injurious information.

Mark Lane writes about this extensively in an appendix to his JFK assassination book Plausible Denial in which he holds this standard to blame for much that is wrong in public life in this country. Powerful public figures with lots of skeletons in the closet who are outed by investigators are spared the admonishment that they should sue their accusers because the bar to a successful suit is so high. There are any number of things for example, that have been said about the Bushes or the Clintons for which there are tons of circumstantial evidence but no smoking guns. You and I might be expected to sue in such cases but not the high and mighty among us. They are never asked, "If it ain't true, why don't you sue?" They can answer, "I can't sue unless I can prove malice." This is how they get off that hook.

Means, motive and opportunity are key to linking actual malice. And to get to the malice part you have to get inside the head of the accuser to understand what is driving them (motivating) them to make such assertions.

And I have to kindly disagree with you re ordinary mortals held to a lesser standard. Say for example that a school throws out a student based on their conservative views and smears the student's record. That student can sue for intentional malice and well as defamation and libel, if the information was transmitted to third parties.
