Let me see......
She's broke or has financial troubles. This means that Herman Cain's hand wasn't on her genitals because?????????? He only likes financially stable genitals?
The woman tells it like it happened. Her bank account means nothing when the guy pushed her head into his lap. C'mon.

Because it's good for our democracy to know what sort of skeletons are hanging in the closets of our candidates?
Personally, I feel this may be an attempt to get Cain out of the campaign... by the Cain campaign. See, running for president can be very lucrative, especially if you're taking time out to pawn your book. But, and here's the thing, if you get the nomination, suddenly your finances become much more scrutinized, much more restricted. If you run as a hopeful, and then ditch, you get to keep your campaign contributions for "next time."
Cain's making a run with the money, since none of the crazy stuff he's done so far seems to convince voters to ditch him. "I'm the Koch Brothers' brother from another mother," are you kidding me? Unfortunately there's a major miscalculation - the sort of people who make up Cain's newfound "base" tend to be the sort of people who make excuses for rapists, much less sexual harassment (tip - it's always the woman's fault. She's always a lying, hysterical gold-digger who "really wanted it.")
So Cain, faced with his poll numbers not dropping, will either have to ignore the numbers and announce his resignation due to this scandal, or will have to come up with an even wackier scandal (my money is on him suddenly deciding to join Nation of Islam)edit on 8/11/2011 by TheWalkingFox because: (no reason given)

My question is, "why now"? Why do they accuse now?
If I committed a crime and sexually harassed someone, do they wait until I'm running for office to state it?
If he did commit these acts, then why wait?
I smell a rat!
