Hey Victoria, check this out.
After several days of not responding to the question, Gordon emailed on Oct. 24 that any dispute about Cain’s conduct at the restaurant association “was settled amicably among all parties many years ago.”
“These are old and tired allegations that never stood up to the facts,” Gordon said in an email response. “This was settled amicably among all parties many years ago, and dredging this up now is merely part of a smear campaign meant to discredit a true patriot who is shaking up the political status quo.”
Astute observers have to note that if there was truly nothing to the allegations, why was there need for settlement? I know Gordon changed his tune a few days later and changed his wording from "settled" to "resolved," but the fact that it was settled leads me to believe that there is something more than just a dispute that was ended amicably.
Well, I guess Cain can always say he was joking or that he didn’t mean it, or what he meant to say or do was different than what he actually said or did. He is always misunderstood, after all.
