If ever there was a case of “Wait … what?” this has to be it. Until yesterday we hadn’t seen “Herman Cain” and “sexual harassment” in the same sentence so a story of Herman Cain denying sexual harassment allegations came as a bit of a shock. We were still back there on that weird PR video of his campaign chief Mark Block, aka the smoking man -- hilarious, dated and, dare we say, ar-cain (like his position on abortion).
Yet there it was in the Los Angeles Times -- Cain rejected claims he had harassed two female employees when he was head of the National Restaurant Association during the 90s.
Politco reported in detail on the allegations, saying that Cain and his campaign “declined to address questions about specific reporting confirming that there were financial settlements in two cases in which women leveled complaints.”
Cain, the Times said, “conceded that the allegations had cast a “cloud” over his campaign.”
