Report: Cain sought dinner date with fifth woman
polutico ^ | Monday November 7, 2011 | MAGGIE HABERMAN |

A former USAID worker claims Herman Cain asked her to set up dinner with a woman who attended a speech he gave in 2002, the Washington Examiner is reporting tonight.

The worker - 40-year-old Donna Donella, of Arlington - told the paper that the moment came after Cain gave a paid speech in Egypt that year. A woman in the crowd posed a query to Cain during the speech, the Examiner said. Continue Reading

Donella told them “And after the seminar was over, Cain came over to me and a colleague and said, ‘Could you put me in touch with that lovely young lady who asked the question, so I can give her a more thorough answer over dinner?’”

She was "suspicious of Cain's motives and delined to set up the date," the Examiner reporter wrote.

That prompted Cain to reply, "Then you and I can have dinner." Instead, some of Donella's co-workers suggested a group outing.

Well, Cain is married. The Republican base includes some who frown on adultery.

Of course, I see no reason why he has to eat dinner by himself.

An Obama zombie who spends her life sucking on the government teat doesn’t like a conservative so she imputes nefarious deeds and motives to the scary black man?

All of these allegations are fine but they don’t mean a damn thing unless she was “uncomfortable”.

She said she didn't witness any "inappropriate sexual behavior" at the group dinner. But she claimed he asked the waiter for two $400 bottles of wine, and then stiffed the rest of the group when it came time to pay.

Now he is a cheap chisler too?

Yeah, the Left plays rope-a-dope with a few Freepers. Just read some of these comments. Some are actually not interested in whether or not these allegations are true. They just want their candidate to win, so they’ll support Liberals in perpetrating lies, and encourage character assassination in order to gain an advantage.

This is SNL material. There’s absolutely nothing here - the kids at Politico really need to lay off the weed, go out and get some fresh air and sober up. They’re making fools of themselves.

There's 5 of 'em.

Right, 4 Obama zombettes and a ditz that needs money more than her dignity. Without a doubt these 5 should choose the Republican nominee.

Every woman in America should claim that she was asked out on a date by Herman Cain. When the number reaches 5000 then the storm will die out.

Apparently dating is now a crime if you are a Republican

From Wiki:

Cain married Gloria Cain (née Etchison), of Atlanta, soon after her graduation from Morris Brown College in 1968. His wife of 43 years is a homemaker

My biggest problem with this entire matter is that Cain Accused Perry of being behind this.
And he got away with it.

It’s become a circus.

It’s inappropriate to do that. Buy a woman dinner who asked a question. So all these women are liars...or maybe he’s a flirt. I think to blindly defend him is just as bad as asuuming he’s guilty. But now we’re not talking about tax codes or OBama..we’re talking about Cain’s personal life. That makes me angry.

So this woman can read minds?

If Bill Clinton asked the same thing, she would have hopped to.

Maybe Cain stiffed her for the wine as a payback for being a government dipstick.

A $ 400 bottle of wine in Egypt? I don’t think so. Maybe it was 400 Egyptian dollars.Who knows?

Remember, only the media can cause a media frenzy.
