Herman Cain sought to ride out the sexual harassment scandal engulfing his embattled presidential campaign by projecting a business-as-usual façade.
But there were growing signs of unease in conservative circles as a fourth accuser — Sharon Bialek — provided a name and a face to what had been anonymous harassment allegations against the GOP front-runner. Bialek's detailed and lurid accusations — that Cain groped her in a car after she asked for his help finding a job — spun his already embattled campaign into an uncertain new territory.
"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 Hor, who last week had condemned media coverage of the allegations against Cain.
"I think he does need to take another step and answer a few more questions."

I am always shocked when someone is shocked by the "media's" lack of coverage of Obama.
The "media" is no longer the "media"...it has (with a few exceptions) been overthrown/co-opted/bought off by the far Left and is now nothing more than a propaganda organ.
This country is in the midst of a civil war (albeit a cold one, so far) in which the Left is trying to seize permanent control of power by any means possible. Anyone who believes otherwise either hasn't been paying attention or is still in denial.
A wide variety of Perry sex rumors are out there, from gay to whoremonger for Perry.
The media will want to give Perry plenty of time to prepare for a special 60 minutes right after the super bowl to address these charges. Just like they did with Clinton.
Does not matter. In America, the woman will always get the benefit of the doubt in ‘he said, she said’ situations. The man will always have to prove his innocence.
And the media is never going to let this die. They LOVE sex scandals...especially Republican sex scandals.
lol
I was too busy laughing at how ridiculous the charges were to feel uneasy :)
GO CAIN!
The whole story that woman told is so unbelievable I can’t believe the Lame Stream Media is running with this one.
<><><><
Take the names from the story.
You really find the notion of a man making a move on a woman unbelievable?
I, like everyone else (except for the accused and the accusers) have absolutely zero idea what actually happened. But to suggest that it is unbelievable is pretty unbelievable, given that it happens every day.
Any of you ever worked in the restaurant biz or been around those who do? My experience with that was blissfully short (restaurant workers as room mates back in the day), but pretty wild.
Alcohol fueled late nights.
And again, we all have no idea what went on, but if what the woman says is true (I said if), then it did rise to the level of harrassment with the words ‘you want a job, right?’.
Now, will the messenger be shot for speculation?
If all of the accusations amounted to any thing the liberals would love him, its all just a bunch of garbage.
I have not listened to the news for some time but it looks like Mitt Romney is the favorite of the liberals, what ever Cain has done or not done is nobodys business as long as he keeps it out of the oval office, like Bill Clinton should have done.
And i might add that Clinton was proved to have done what he was accused of and he was a two term president so we need not worry about what Cain has done, we just need to vote for him.
To quote the butler in “Arthur”, one would normally have to go into a bowling alley to meet the likes of this woman.
Since when did the Repubs and Conservs decide Bubba was the standard we would use for our candidates.
Why do we have people trying to see how close they can get to the Dum type candidates. Expect the dums to keep diging for all of the candidates for “sex” charges. If Conservs. don’t stand by their principles who will?
I’ve noticed your posts are consistently anti-Cain complaints.
So I clicked on your post to confirm you were true to form.
You were true to form.
Correct, I think of them as BLACKSHIRTS, (my new name for them instead of MSM) because they defacto fulfill the role of the Blackshirts under fascism, i.e. If you disagree with fascism they visit and beat you up, or (a reported technique),tie your hands, make you swallow castor oil and then slip a live, kicking frog down your throat. The Blackshirts has just shoved a live, kicking frog down Cain's throat.
We’ve come to a point where even our own side accepts unsubstantiated accusations as being valid.
The burden of proof is on the accused, rather than the accuser, to prove they are innocent.
How do the accused defend themselves MORE than saying, “I didn’t do it” or “I’m not going to respond further”?
I have never made any claim other than I am Anti-Cain.
After this newswer today I am disgusted with this man. There is no other shoe to drop.
According to Cain there are more women to come forward.
This is a centipede. If any of you guys think women find his attacks on women and EVERYONE is lying but me schtick will get him votes. You are sadly mistaken.
Frankly I am sick to death of lying politicians, whether it’s Romney, Cain or Obama.
BTW I will not respond to Cainiac assaults.
