Another Cain Accuser

A businesswoman accused GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain of having had an affair with her that lasted 13 years. Cain upstaged his accuser's announcement, telling CNN a few minutes beforehand that her assertion was coming and was false. "This individual is going to accuse me of an affair for an extended period of time," Cain said. Cain said his wife's immediate reaction upon hearing of the accusation was, "Here we go again." This is the third women to come forward and accuse Cain for sexual harassment. However, this is not an accusation of harassment in the workplace -- this is not an accusation of an assault -- which are subject matters of legitimate inquiry to a political candidate. "Rather, this appears to be an accusation of private, alleged consensual conduct between adults -- a subject matter which is not a proper subject of inquiry by the media or the public. He said he had no plans to drop out of the race. Either this is a huge campaign smear, or Cain is lying.
