Cain claims to never have met this woman or knowing her name. But a reporter from WIND in Chicago saw them together a month ago at the TeaCon (sp?) meeting. What is going on?

Watch any campaign event and you will see tons of people rushing up to hug candidates right and left, all while babbling in their ear. This is exactly what the reporter saw.

The problem is that these accusations get out, people start talking and they take on a life of their own. How many people are saying there are FIVE women who are accusing Cain when it has been determined that one of these five was "offended" when he asked something to the effect of "Sweetheart, would you be a doll and doctor my tea?"

And what we should take away from this (and what they did to Sarah, and to countless other conservatives) is this: No More.

I’m not arguing any of your points.

However, this was backstage. Herman is a Presidential candidate. This was different enough to leave a Chicago-based reporter wondering what was going on and to have it stick in her memory.

The REPORTER knew who this woman was!

And this person goes up to a Presidential candidate, they hug, and she whispers in his ear in a way and for a time that stuck with this reporter.

It just doesn’t sound the same as a “handshake with the folks” incident.

Do you really see it as the same?

And are we holding our guys to the same standard that we’d (CONSERVATIVES, not democrat enablers) hold Democrat/progressive candidates?

I think the line’s getting blurry...

He sent another a CD of his gospel Christmas songs. She said it "made her feel uncomfortable, because he was too friendly (Christian manners). " She said she didn't do anything legally about it, but she "wouldn't vote for him."

These are two of the "devastating" accusation being made against him.

I play in a softball league and one game my teammate brought his wife. We met and chatted and after the game she was part of our group that all went out for beers and food together in the same car talking and laughing. A month later she came to another game and I didn't even recognize her - face, name, nothing.

So it is easy for me to believe Cain, who meets probably hundreds of people every day, doesn't remember some woman walking up to him and hugging and saying a few words after a speech.

I would not be surprised if the only reason Bialek went to this Tea Party event was to try to meet up with Cain and set him up or shake him down.
