Harassment claims harass Cain

POLITICO is reporting that GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain was accused of harassment by 2 former female employees of the National Restaurant Association.  Mr, Cain ran the organization during the 1990's.  Cain and his campaign have flatly denied the accusations, pointing out an internal investigation that did not find substantial evidence of harassment.  The campaign went further, decrying the media for attacking Cain on a personal level.  

I doubt this revelation amounts to an "October Surprise" in politics, but it makes for good reading.  I think Herman Cain is going to have to get used to being scrutinized more closely.  This is what happens when you become the leader in the polls.  Mitt Romney has been attacked for EVERYTHING, from flip-flopping to voter fraud.  We've scrutinized Michele Bachmann and found out her husband runs a clinic that uses therapy to turn gay people straight, among other things.  Rick Perry got attacked for his 'N*****head' ranch and when the rock was actually painted over.  Now we're getting Herman Cain's decades old sexual harassment complaint.

God Bless Politics, and all it's craziness.
