TRENTON, N.J. – The first woman known to have filed a sexual harassment claim against GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain while he ran a trade group shows no interest in revealing her identity or publicly discussing her accusations against the Georgia businessman.
The woman, who works for one of New Jersey's largest lobbying firms, has deliberately made herself scarce. She has taken time off work, avoided staying at her home and dodged reporters' visits, phone calls and emails for weeks since news surfaced about her sexual harassment claim against Cain. Her family, including a brother who is a lawyer and lists employment cases among his specialties, has declined interview requests.
She's also steered clear of efforts by other women who have accused Cain of harassment and who hoped to appear together at a news conference to discuss details of their complaints against the businessman while he led the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s.
Fox News (and others) has a video that supposedly shows Herman Cain in "another" gaffe.
According to the report:
Apparently Cain was sampling some Cuban food during the event and wanted to know how to say "delicious," in "Cuban."
The report says: "The recently embattled Republican presidential candidate, however, may want to catch up on his linguistics before that discussion," referring to the topic of conversation, which was to be "Freedom for Cuba...Cubans, of course, speak Spanish." (See Fox Report Here:

)
The gaffe, however, is in fact the Fox Report itself.
Actually, Cain was right. "Cuban" is also a dialect of Spanish. This information is available in WIKIPEDIA.

The Gaffe belongs to Fox and other media, not to Cain.
Stories about being born in Kenya, and fake birth certificates and such and it's just fine with you.
Don't you see the hypocrisy?
Herman Cain didn’t seem very informed about Cuba on a visit to Florida, where the issue is key, the Miami Herald reported.
Cain had to be asked to talk about Cuba, and he responded like this:
“What about Cuba?” he asked. “One of my principles is: Go to the source closest to the problem. You will find the solution… I want to get from Cuban leaders a solution what we should do.”
He also didn’t seem familiar with the “wet-foot, dry-foot” policy, which provides that Cuban immigrants found at sea are sent back to Cuba or another country while those who make it to the United States get the opportunity to stay.
I genuinely can't figure out if Cain is saying more and more outrageous things just to gt attention or if the stress is getting to him and he's going insane. With the Tea Party, it's hard to tell.
