Fourth Cain accuser to hold news conference
Source: Reuters

(Reuters) - A fourth woman to accuse Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment will outline allegations against him
at a news conference in New York on Monday, her lawyer said.

The woman alleges she was sexually harassed by Cain "when she sought his help with an employment issue when he was President of the National
Restaurant Association," according to a statement by her lawyer, Gloria Allred. The news conference is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.

She will become the first person to give her name and come forward publicly to lay out her case against Cain, a front-runner in the Republican presidential
race.

At least three other women have accused him of sexual harassment from his time as the restaurant industry's top lobbyist in the mid-1990s. Cain, 65, i
nsists the claims are baseless and that he was wrongfully accused

3. Smoke and fire! Hopefully, her willingness to step into the
media frenzy will encourage others to do the same. I think there is a good reason we don't see Mrs. Cain on the campaign trail.

16. Two distinctions...
1). Clinton was accused of being more a womanizer, rather than a harraser.

2). Clinton conveyed something the image of a loveable rogue, and the accustions probably helped enforce that image. Cain's membership in the "holier than thou" fraternity will make the sex accusations harder to shrug off.

21. First he forced her head into his crotch, and then noticed
"you're as tall as my wife."

Perfectly innocent way of measuring height.
