This is the type of 'character assasination'--a term coined, with no small amount of irony, by those on the right and a tactic decried by numerous members of these forums; some in this very thread. Seems to me that it is a rather insincere form of argument.
I'm not sure if the public at large regard the term as relating to a minor but, we can say the news will drill a story involving sexual activity with minors into the ground. Look at Penn State. This story will be repeated and followed for weeks. A school teacher involved with a minor. All over the news. A possible serial rapist gets a spot today and is dismissed tomorrow. As far as Clinton and describing him as sexual predator and know his story we can say that most would not associate the story to sexual activity with minors. We can say he is a sexual predator. It is a character assassination. Nothing more. Politico should have some strong evidence on Cain (I don't believe they do). If not, Politico would have destroyed this man, campaign and life.
