There is no proof ANYONE was paid off. On closer review of the Politico article, it appears that the women were given money when they left. How do we know this isn’t a SEVERANCE package? Politico is the one trying to tie the payment to their complaints.
The whole story is full of holes. This journolist, who incidentally is the same who falsely smeared Palin, cites 2 unamed women, who never even claimed actual harrassment and pits their story against the the chair, vice chair and immediate past chairman of the National Restaurant Association board of directors.
The writer himself is even dodging questions on this piece of trash:

So why are you carrying the water for Politico? You do know this is a leftist organization, right? There is a definite common thread to FR posters who are promoting these smears.
I still wonder how Perry’s Campaign Arizona State Organizer, Shawnna Bolick know about this”oppo” research 3 days before this attack?
I’m starting to wonder about the old Rove’s Iron Triangle coming back into play.

1) WHO are these women? Identify yourselves.
2) What are the circumstances behind these so called payments? Let’s see the documentation.
3) What is the nature of these so-called harrassments? A crude remark? groping? was it on-going and repeated to a point they couldn’t work anymore?
Inquiring minds want to know...
4) Why did it take them 15 years to publicize this? ( We already know the answer ).
5) Were these women PAID by someone to make these accusations? If so, by who?
Well, I believe that Cain himself admitted the women were paid off. I heard the quote. and he added, I hope they weren’t paid much as the claims were unfounded.
Severence pay? hahahah
