Campaign manager: 'Herman Cain has never sexually harassed anybody. Period.'
WASHINGTON — Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain's campaign denied allegations that emerged Sunday saying he was twice accused of sexual harassment while he was the head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s.
In the campaign's most definitive statement today, campaign manager and chief of staff Mark Block said that Cain had never engaged in any sort of sexual harassment, disputinga Politico report that said Cain had been accused of sexually suggestive behavior toward at least two female employees during his time as head of the restaurant lobby.

We're starting to see a picture of Herman Cain as someone who takes advantage of his power over other people. He comes off as charming and is quick to talk his way out of a corner or modify his position if it's unpopular. Despite the difference in opinions, he reminds me a bit of Bill Clinton.
For those of us who've worked for bosses like that...how (and what) do you think he'd do as President?
It is amazing how the left will viciously attack ANY conservative black.
Guess Cain doen't know his place with the liberals.
Just like Justice Clarence Thomas, they will invent things to destroy those that don't fit the agenda.
When will black America wake up to the democrat tricks?
If he has been accused in the past, there should be documentation of it to prove it.
Right?
11:34 actually it sounds like Karl Rove and folks from the right drumming this up.
1147-Based on what? Politico is featured on MSNBC more then any other "news" network.
Until some facts come out(none have so far), it's a non story.
Cain has my vote his Mentor Bill Clinton has taught him well Cain has now proven he is worthy to be President,gee if only JFK were still alive he also would be proud of Cain
Every dog has his day.
It's the typical racial attack on a black conservative playing on stereo types, reminds me of the shameless attack on the honorable Clarence Thomas. I think black democrats will be disappointed in this kind of politics.
I hope people can see through these attacks on Herman Cain as they did with Clarence Thomas.
11:47 is exactly right. This is the work of the republican establishment. Right now, Herman Cain is a bigger threat to them than he is to hussien. The democrats have no reason to launch their attack machine until after the primary. This man has my vote for quite a few reasons. First of all, I will never believe this story just because I know how politics and the media work. Second is the fact that he is a conservative (notice I didn't say republican-they are not interchangable terms anymore). Third is the fact that he is a businessman and has probably forgotten more about economics than most of the idiots who "work" for the government, and last but most importantly is the fact that he is NOT a career politician!
I believed Clarence Thomas. I believe Herman Cain. I am a woman who believes the place for a woman is at home raising the kids and keeping hubby happy, not at work in slinky dresses with everything hanging out, then accusing a man of harassment.
