Indeed if l=am interested in simply covering my ass and leaving alive with my tail betw=en my legs, this may be the best approach. B=t it is equally true that many many many of the people vocalizing support h=ve all said that while most of the story is hearsay allegations, and none i= any case involve sexual harassment, they are also saying that Lawrence Kra=ss has not had a chance, yet, to defend himself.
