Herman Cain today said that Sharon Bialek, the first woman to publicly accuse the GOP presidential candidate of sexual harassment, is a liar and that he never acted inappropriately with her.
I have had nothing but the utmost respect for any and all women as well as those who have worked under my leadership, Cain told ABC News Jonathan Karl in the ABC News/Yahoo Newsmakers interview. I can categorically say I have never acted inappropriately with anyone, period. And as far as these latest charges I reject all of those.
Cain said the charges are baseless and bogus and that the accusations are an attempt from his opponents to derail his candidacy.
When I first saw her [Bialek] I didnt even recognize her, Cain said.
This is Cains only media appearance today before his scheduled press conference later, where he will respond to new allegations of sexual harassment.

It is in the corporate world. The asking out is a crime in and of itself.
Wha...a squirrel? You MONSTER! Poor little squirrel...of course, and this is BEGGING for a comparison, if they’re gonna run out in front of my car, whose fault is it they end up as little furry pancakes?
In my day, if a guy made an unwelcome advance you brushed him off and got on with things.
Some guys got a reputation...I remember one earned the nickname "Hans" because he could not keep his "hans" to himself.
Why are you so negative with people around here? Are you a drone in disguise? Coming from a super blue state and the way you respond to people who, in most case, are presenting speculation, as in “devil’s advocate”. Do you understand the term? It is not means literally.
Done. Thanks for the link Jeff...
Here's some fun with the "rules:" If you're a good-looking guy, you have a highly reduced chance of the above happening, because SH is defined as "unwanted." If she wants it because you're actually good-looking, you're in the clear. Also, it's assumed only men on women. A woman won't be touched by the business end of the rule, instead the complaining male will be targeted for retribution for screwing up the rule.
“In my day, if a guy made an unwelcome advance you brushed him off and got on with things.”
In my little corner of the world that is still how it is handled!
I’m really sick of these golddiggers/political hacks who seem to come out of the woodwork at the snap of some A-hole’s finger! And if Gloria Allred is involved it makes me even sicker because I know it’s a big damn LIE!
I am perfectly capable of handling my own problems without the help of a flaming liberal lawyer who claims all men are pigs who are out for nothing but SEX (unless it is their hero Clinton). BS, many of these women are looking for fame and a PAYDAY!
Bialek is a liar. She stood at the microphone with Alred by her side and read what supposedly happened to her. She read every word. If this had really happened to her, she would not have to read it off a piece paper!!!
My instinct tells me that she is NOT a highly moral woman. Her attitude and affect during her appearances do not fit the embarrassment a highly moral woman would have discussing the details of this subject. I don’t believe her and I’m with the other guy who stated someone is using Cain’s own morals against him. They (Alinsky followers) are using every trick in Alinsky’s book to achieve their goals. And they will continue to do so until their actions become apparent to everyone in the country. It is too blatant. And I agree with another poster who wanted to know where these women were during his other political campaigns.
Cain should respond by hiring a team of private investigators to go off looking for the missing Obama girlfriends. That would certainly set off some panic and trepidation.
But if I were...
Which I'm not...
Er...
Oh look! Cookies!

#81: No, it is NOT a crime. Sexual harrassment is a pattern of behavior. Not a one-time event. Corporations no longer have to give sexual harrassment seminars anymore. My company does it, but only because we face customers and vendors on the projects we work.
I think that’s a good suggestion.
I’m sick of these people claiming how “troubling” this is and so on.
Yes, it’s needs to be addressed, in some way, shape or form. But it’s not troubling until there’s some there there.
Thanks, I’m going to share that! (and already signed it!)
Sorry you do not understand a little humor... I am a Cain supporter....
Never thought to waste my time with lawsuits.
Cain is no Clinton... you are right. If he was, the media would be doing his bidding.
“What someone on Cains team needs to do is produce a video for youtube in which many of women who have worked for Cain testify as to his character.”
Worked for Vince in Entorage.
