CNN) - Joel Bennett, the attorney for one the women who has accused Herman Cain of sexual harassment, said Friday that his client "made a complaint in good faith about a series of inappropriate behaviors and unwanted advances" from the GOP presidential candidate.

Bennett said his client sees "no value" in revisiting the issue now, but "stands by the complaint that she made."

Bennett said his client would disagree with Cain's characterization of the alleged harassment incidents.

He confirmed that the alleged harassment occurred in 1999 over a period of "at least a month or two." There was "more than one incident," he said.

Well— you can assume anything you like about him....I happen to know him....he’s no “DC insider”— He has been a great supporter of AFP for years....He is a well-off business man..but he does many things that most folks are not aware of...

my first time in a real radio studio(not sure college studio counts) was with him...I met him at the station to give him a thank you basket that I made for him (he helped us give a sit down Thanksgiving Dinner at the World Congress Center in ATL for over 2,000 homeless)— I just wanted to say thanks to him for all his help....I later ended up doing my own show in that same studio— and NO— he did not have anything to do with that....

He has taken my advise a few times, and I have been able to help him a few times...we disagree on a few things...he is a hoot to debate!

He is not a perfect man, but he is a wonderful man...I am proud to know him...you don’t have to take my word for it...but— he is not insider...and they can’t stand the fact that he is NOT playing their game.....

They've flung this crap against the wall for more than a week now and the poll needles have hardly moved.

I don't believe that for a minute. I just sent him more than any other campaign contribution I've ever made.

You’re probably right. That’s in the future.

I’m sure Soros or one of his numerous stooges would have been quite happy to offset her potential loss, going so far as to set her up for life. The fact that they didn’t speaks volumes: there’s no “there” there.

She has had her chance. Nobody would believe her then.

We could ask her why when the issue came up, did she not address the issue?

I think Politico should run another story on this.

I think you’re missing the whole point. He didn’t sign any agreement. That comes straight from her attorney. But he’s still obligated to not talk about it because he’s part of the agreement.

Yet he didn’t open this can of worms; she and her attorney did. If anyone is in violation of the confidentiality clause, they are, not Herman Cain. All he’s done is respond to very minimal, very vague, allegations. So are you now trying to get more life out of this? Are you trying to pile on when the alleged accuser is shutting up? Are you? Are you that small?

How does anyone know whether this attorney actually speaks for this woman or not. It sounds like to me he is saying all this, not her. And we can’t ever know.

Snake.

I’m sticking with my story. What story? What I said. What did you say? And it happened more than once. What happened? Exactly.

Hey, a Abbot. You gonna be the new coach, right?...

Well, you must know all the players names then. ......

Great, you tell me the guys names then I'll know the guys when I start...

Accuser: Sorry if you were made uncomfortable way back then. Maybe you are telling the truth. We don’t know. We don’t wish to deny it if you were bothered.

BUT WE DON’T CARE!!!!! We don’t have a perfect candidate on the boards. Barack Obama has bothered a few people in his day — be lucky you didn’t get in HIS way. We need Herman Cain so we will take him with past accusations or not!

Nope. The Politico story did that, not her.

No a perrywinkle. Small poll numbers do all kinds of things to people.

Sounds like she didn’t.
Sounds to me like it is the lawyer pushing the whole thing.

But we can’t know because she is anonymous and no one can talk to her. In fact she could be dead or living in Siberia someplace for all we know ... and not even aware that all this is all going on.

I’m pointing at the lawyer as being the center of all this.

What happened to the other women they supposedly had?
Did they vanish too?
