Quotes from the article:

“He deserves a fair chance. But that doesn't mean he gets a pass. These are not anonymous allegations anymore unfortunately,” said New Hampshire conservative activist Jennifer Horn, who last week had condemned media coverage of the allegations against Cain. “He does need to take another step and answer a few more questions.”

“Oh,” exclaimed South Carolina GOP Chairman Chad Connelly said when told details from Bialek’s news conference. He said character issues matter in a state where the last governor tearfully confessed an affair and the current governor faced unproven allegations from two men that she had affairs. “Our voters care about moral attitude,” Connelly said. “Character does matter.”

And I almost like the guy because I think he's being treated unfairly.

Now a 5th woman has come forward and she's saying "she was uncomfortable" because he invited her to dinner. Come on, this is silly.

The woman who came forward with Alred is the only one who made claims he tried to do anything physical and I don't believe she is all that credible.

However, the damage has been done. Cain is twisting in the wind. One day he says he's done responding to these allegations and then the next day he's saying he's going to take them on head on. From the beginning Cain has done him self no favors by changing his story on a daily basis and throwing out unsupported allegations of his own.

Cain would be a disaster as the Pub nominee. He has shown no interest in understanding issues involving foreign policy. He has had so many qualifiers in his statements on social issues, especially Pro-Life, that no one can reasonably say they understand what his position really is. He did not think through his economic plan, an area that is supposed to be a strength, and then began changing it on a weekly basis. He has not responded well to the sexual harassment allegations and has shown no message discipline, or that he has ever thought out a coherent strategy for dealing with the allegations.

I don't like Cain. I think he is a jerk and can't help but see the irony in a man being brought down by the same tactics he used against others. However, I hate the tactics and think they are despicable.
