Sexual Harassment

Sorry for not posting yesterday. I haven't been feeling so well so this post will be short today, but I will definitely post a couple tomorrow and might post about this more tomorrow.

Lately several women have accused Herman Cain, one of the Republican candidates, of sexual harassment in the early 1990's. There have been about five women. Two of them filed sexual harassment charges against Cain with the National Restaurant Association in the 1990's and claim they were given a settlement. Herman Cain stated that the claims were found to be baseless and that they were simply given money to leave the company. These women never came out in public and made statements. Now one women says she will come out and release more information if the other women do.  A couple days ago a new woman emerged and said that Herman Cain felt her up and offered her a "job." We will leave it at that. Herman Cain then stated that he could not remember that woman so her claim was baseless. She never filed a sexual harassment claim and apparently has been involved in several lawsuits in the past.

Should America believe this new woman's claims? First, why didn't she file a claim when this happened? Second, is this woman publicly standing up for her and all the other women or is she out to get money or have in name in papers? What is her motive?

How will these claims affect Herman Cain? Did Herman Cain properly address this?

These are just some of them any questions you have to ask yourself. I hope to write more about these questions and more tomorrow.
