Voters are extremely fickle.
When Herman punted to Gingrigh about defined benefits because he was clueless, he just got a goodhearted laugh.
I know it’s not fair, but some people can just get away with things that others cant, people just “like” Cain and that sort of puts a coating of teflon on him and makes many things that he does wrong or bad have little or no effect on how much people support him.
Honestly, if anyone else on that stage had been hit with the allegations that Cain has been... they would of been done. Well... maybe Ron Paul might have survived because like Cain people just like Paul, you might not want to vote for him, but you just can’t see Paul grabing some strange girls head and pushing it into his crotch anymore than you can imagine Cain doing it, it’s just beyond belief.
If she had just stopped at ... he placed his hand on my leg and tried to kiss me... that might have been believable, but the whole pulling her head down to his crotch thing just seemed WAY over the top to imagine someone like Cain doing.
