Seriously, a guy with this kind of problem would likely have an actual history of harassment/innuendo.

Unless og course, he does not have the problem and hasn’t changed at all. It could be (I believe this is true) that people are slinging mud hoping something will stick somewhere

Maybe you should ask Laz. He seems to have some experience with this kind of thing.

If any of this is true (big if there), I’d say that a real explanation for that change is the hard-drinking and partying nature of the job compared to his other jobs.

You are correct.

Women from every decade of Bill Clinton’s life have accused him SPECIFICALLY of assault and harassment.

The accusations against Cain came during a three year period when he was working in Washington DC, extortion capital of the world.

I disagree that the modern phenomenon of “sexual harassment” equates to “pervert” anyway.

Personally my worldview does not fluctuate with the world’s.

Seems to for far too many round here though

I find it noteworthy how many women he has worked with have come forward and said that it would be out of character for him.

Just yesterday, Sean Hannity’s producer said that she has worked with Cain when he would guest host for Sean, and that he was ALWAYS professional and appropriate.

I’m sure that the Obama Regime is cobbling together stories about his behavior during the Godfather Pizza days.

I understand the group at NRA were a wild bunch prior to Mr. Cain coming on board. He may have dropped his guard a bit and now it’s coming back to bite him.

why would he suddenly become a pervert during these 3 years and no other time?

It's all about opportunity. And then , of course, after you're caught you usually cover your tracks better.

The 90’s opened the door to all sorts of sexual harassment litigation. It was all the rage beginning with the Clarence Thomas nonsense. The media zeroed in on how awful the work environment supposedly was for women, we started getting sensitivity training, etc, etc. Giving Cain the benefit of the doubt, my guess is he is just a very forward guy (maybe especially so after a couple drinks), and in his career prior to his time at the NRA women didn’t see an opportunity to file complaints every time their boss flirted a little with them.

Actually, just like Schroedinger’s cat, we can never know when Herman changed, we just know that there was a quantum mechanical effect when he started going up in the polls that traversed through time and changed his entire history.

It was in 1994 that Herman Cain publicly confronted rapist Bubba Clinton about Clintoncare. That put him on the Left’s radar for the first time, causing them to follow his career from then on. He went to work for NRA IN 1996. Even so, they held their fire until he became the leading conservative contender for the Presidency years later. They do not waste their resources on someone they do not consider a serious threat. That’s why they don’t go after Romney, Perry, Sartorum, etc.

"When did Herman Cain change?"

Looking at the post here on FR it would seem Cain turned into a SOB around the time Perry started stinking like a rock in the polls.

Great question. To quote Dr. Phil : If you want to predict future behavior, just look at past behavior.

So how does a leopard change it's spots?
