Hindu ‘Idolatry’ Issue in Kentucky Campaign

National Dems hardly exist anymore in Kentucky these days. But Gov. Steve Beshear (D) is cruising to a smashing reelection victory next Tuesday. So his Republican opponent David Williams is slamming Beshear for participating in a Hindu religious ceremony. “He’s sitting down there with his legs crossed, participating in Hindu prayers with a dot on his forehead with incense burning around him. I don’t know what the man was thinking … To get down and get involved and participate in prayers to these polytheistic situations, where you have these Hindu gods that they are praying to, doesn’t appear to me to be in line with what a governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky ought to be doing.”

Drip(3)

Well, it turns out that the Times has confirmed that Herman Cain’s then-employer, the National Restaurant Association (he was CEO), paid out $35,000 (one year’s salary) to a woman who accused him of sexual harassment. But is apparently not the one woman who is asking the NRA and Cain to release her from her confidentiality agreement so that she can tell everybody exactly what it is she said Cain did. Which would obviously be great for Cain’s campaign at this point.
