Cain handled these fraudulent accusations masterfully.

Giving ever-changing answers to what happened in not masterful. It keeps prolonging the story because the media will continue to try and get Cain to give yet another version of what happened. If he had said from the beginning something like, "Yes, of the tens of thousands of men and women I have worked closely with at all levels of business over the years there have been only two claims of improper behavior made while I was with the restaurant association. I believed then, and I believe now, that I did not act in an improper manner and it was an unfortunate misunderstanding on the part of the individuals making the accusations. The matter was investigated by management and no evidence of improper behavior on my part was found. A settlement was reached with the two individuals and no admission of wrongdoing was made, because none happened. And that's the end of it."

That would have killed it in its tracks.

This is pretty much exactly what Mr. Cain said on Greta yesterday (except that there was a settlement with only one person). How much time elapsed between "the beginning" and when Mr. Cain made this statement? Less time than has now elapsed since Mr. Cain's statement, your heaving sobs notwithstanding.
