Actually, nothing here seems real nefarious. It appears there was a period of time where Cain was a little “active” with the ladies, boozing and partying. CEO and workers shouldn’t have such relationships, but sometimes the booze makes things seem alright at the time. Payments were made, and things were resolved. Unfortunately, when running for President, this kind of thing usually makes its way into the mix.
For some it’s the activity is a big deal, for others the way it’s been handled is a big deal. For true believers, neither is a big deal. Each person has to decide if they want this kind of person for their candidate.
