Ginger White was not accusing Cain of illegal activity, only of an extramarital with herself. She apologized for the trouble she caused Cain's wife and shut up about it as soon as Cain dropped out of the race but did not recant her story. White had previously been accused of fabricating stories and previously lost a libel suit against her by Kimberly Vay, her former partner in a fitness coaching business after White sent a "defamatory" note to an email list of the company's clients and to city officials. Phone records were consistent with Cain's version of their friendship and White's agreement that he helped her financially for years supports the friendship story but nothing more. White had received eviction notices on at least three occasions and was desperate. Cain believes she thought the notoriety would bring her financial relief.

Cannot “prove” innocence.... the finding is guilty or not guilty, IIRC.

Herman Cain is just one example of why Judge Moore should never ever drop out.

Never.

Once the damage is done there is no way to get your reputation back.

I’m still mad about that one. Cain would have crushed Obama.

I made a big (for me) donation to Cain in the Primary.

Neither. He denied it. At least two of those accusing him received settlements from the Restaurant Association. It was a he said/she said, just like Moore.

Of course, the media will drop it: the mission is completed - smearing a conservative (esp. a black one), forcing him out of the public eye, and chalking-up another victory for leftist identify politics.

All goals were achieved.

Cain was a trial run. Once that was successful, they threw the same tactics at Trump and now Moore.

The real question is: which Dem group or funder is funneling money to Gloria Allred to run these operations and bribe the false accusers? Find that money trail and lock em all up.

Mr Cain was also CEO of Godfather Pizza. Frankly I’m surprised that Cuomo, Pelosi, Torricelli, etc didn’t come out of the woodwork taking him to task over the name “Godfather” How it evokes negative stereotypes of Italian Americans being mobbed up, accusing him of insensitivity.

The Democrats would never ever have a Republican President so he had to go

When confronted about his lie re: Mitt Romney not paying his taxes Harry Reid said “He didn’t win, did he?”

Herman Cain is one of the smartest,most common sense people I’ve ever heard. A great self made man. A pure hit job, no doubt.
