Bimbogate got to Cain through his wife. It’s quite likely the allegations were vastly overblown if not total nonsense. But she was upset and he didn’t want to put her through that grinder.
No analogous situation existed for Bill Clinton.
That is exactly my conclusion. Cain’s wife was quite disturbed with the attacks on her husband. All her life she had seen her husband help scores of people. So she must have been confused and perturbed with all those allegations — ORIGINATING WITH CHICAGO CONNECTION...every one of them!
