I’d be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for bedding a subordinate, but cheating on his wife? Not so much...

Sexual harassment, in this case, is about power, not the sex. She's young, far junior to Cain, and possibly slightly inebriated. She willingly consents to the sex, in that he didn't force himself upon her, but did she feel that she had to consent, or she might suffer consequences in her job, career.

If, IF..he took a young female staffer back to his apartment, that's incrfedibly stupid judgement..

Here’s the problem: the article never says he had sex with her. It’s worded in a way to make you draw that conclusion, but they are weasel words.

At the moment, I am inclined to say if there was one transgression twenty years ago and he and is wife worked it out, then it is no one else's business.

Given the field of candidates, I am willing to overlook one mistake in Cain's personal life.

At the moment. But I am worried.
