Even though yesterday was my designated candidate follow up day, the article claiming Cain's sexual harassment history was too enticing to be over looked. The information was first released on Politico where it claimed that Cain spoke in a suggestive manner to two female employees while he was chief of the National Restaurant Association. Since the news broke, Cain has been dealing with his first controversy, doing damage control to save his high standing in the polls.
What is hurting Cain is his change in the information relayed. The article cited two instances where Cain was asked the same questions and gave different answers. No matter what the answer he gives, he needs to stick to his story, ideally the true one, because otherwise he will look guilty. This is a chance for Perry and Romney to point out flaws in Cain's ability to deal with issues, to gain their own standing. It's November 1st, so I guess a candidate scandal was due to happen.
