PJM Sources Report Details of Alleged Cain Incident
PJMedia ^ | November 3, 2011 | Richard Pollock

Posted on 11/03/2011 10:04:50 AM PDT by bbernard

Adding to the ongoing Herman Cain sexual harassment controversy, two sources have now confirmed to PJ Media that a female employee of the National Restaurant Association told associates she had been brought by Mr. Cain to his Crystal City, Virginia residence where she alleged “he had taken advantage of me.”

One source, a male, told PJ Media:

Herman took advantage of seniority and power with a young woman. It was an abuse of power.

Implying that coming forward with the accusations was an ordeal for the young woman, the source also said:

Who do you believe, a CEO or a mid-level staffer? It was unsettling for her to make charges.

The name of the woman — who was in her early twenties at the time of the alleged incident — has been confirmed by PJ Media. We have chosen not to reveal her identity for reasons of discretion.

Both sources, one male and one female, worked at the time — mid-1990s — for the governmental affairs department of the National Restaurant Association, as did the woman.

“What did Tom do next, Miss May Ella?”

From "To Kill a Mockingbird", right? One of my all time favorite classic movies.

Who do you believe, a supreme court nominee or some ditzy story about public hairs on a Coke can?

Particularly when the ditz followed the gentleman on two job promotions and was promised fame and fortune for her testimony by libtards who couldn't stand to see another promotion for a man who has behaved in nothing less than gentlemanly fashion for more than two decades since?

Excellent points. The woman made her own decision to have sex with a man — then, she castigates the man for accepting her embellishments. Be careful guys; the woods are full of this vile type today.

>> Unless he inserted a cigar while under the desk in the oval office I don’t care!

I care. Character is important in a POTUS; I don’t care what poor example Clintoon set.

On the other hand, I just can’t get too worked up when those with a transparently anti-Cain agenda push vague innuendo from anonymous sources.

If this turns out to be true, then the GOP is screwed, blued, and tattooed. No viable conservative candidate. Mitt is the nominee, Barry the Boob gets his 2nd term (and possible dictatorship for life), and our country gone with no hope of recovery.

What does this mean, "she woke up in his bed?" Was he there? Had he been there?

Do we know if this woman got drunk at a business event and was taken to Cain's home to sleep it off?

This is one time we agree. The ‘he made inappropriate comments’ didn’t hurt him, so now they are ramping up the accusations.

Before long, Cain will be accused of raping her dog...

“I just can’t get too worked up when those with a transparently anti-Cain agenda push vague innuendo from anonymous sources.”

Exactly.... Until we get something concrete I will continue to support him.

So, are further “detail” leaking because it’s the normal progression of news or because the attempted smear hasn’t yet work?

Cain says the story will vindicate him; unnamed sources says it’ll finish him.

Dirty politics is alive and well.

So Cain’s wife didn’t live with him in VA? I’m confused.

This entire sex scandal keeps getting more messy with each passing day.

Cain&CO hasn’t handled it well at all and that has made the situation worse.

Normally I would agree but then why wasn’t it the end of Bill Clinton!?! This is a smear campaign plain and simple.
