So far, neither of the two alleged complainants from Herman Cain’s tenure at the National Restaurant Association have come forward publicly, although it appears at least one would like NRA to release her from her confidentiality agreement to do so. However, a pollster who worked for NRA at the time told KTOK in Oklahoma that he witnessed both incidents — and that if the women talk, Cain’s candidacy would be over:
Interviewed today on KTOK’s Mullins in the Morning, [Chris] Wilson, of Wilson-Perkins-Allen Opinion Research headquartered in Washington, D.C. explained he was a witness to the incident. “I was the pollster at the National Restaurant Association when Herman Cain was head of it and I was around a couple of times when this happened and anyone who was involved with the NRA at the time, knew that this was gonna come up.”
Wilson described the woman as a low level staffer who was maybe two years out of college. “This occurred at a restaurant in Crystal City (Virginia) and everybody was aware of it,” he continued. “It was only a matter of time because so many people were aware of what took place, so many people were aware of her situation, the fact she left—everybody knew with the campaign that this would eventually come up.”

“Why would these women come forth 12 years later if not for someone bankrolling their lies?”
More to the point (for me), this sort of thing doesn’t happen just once, just as pedophiles don’t have just one nasty photo on their computers. If this were a sign of Cain’s character, they’d be coming out of the woodwork and piling on. I smell a big, fat, nasty Rat.

If true ....and its a big IF ...how do politicians put themselves out there knowing this stuff is coming? .....I always thought that the sexual history of Clinton showed incredible corruption as he was a top politician operating with tons of baggage ,,,,the only way someone can do that is to intimidate people into silence

Interesting line. Wonder how often that happens when the CEO gets a little off-color or handsy...take this money and go away and we won’t speak of it again...
But wilson works for and has been writing supporting perry, so trying to run for the tall grass and trying to blame willard is not going to help the perry crowd.

Saw perry losing and his meal ticket going away. That is what the perry employee saw.
“If I had this somewhere in my background, I would not even think of running for public office.”
What about The Swimmer and Der Sleek...murderer, rapist and philanderers, both of whom stayed in the public eye and politics.
Maybe add “If you are a Black Conservative” :-)
Well, that's a good point.
And yes, I feel uncomfortable sometimes at work; I work at a family business and when my two bosses, husband and wife, are having an argument, I feel uncomfortable. But I don't sue. :)
You make some very good points.
No, it was research uncovered in the thread.
