Fifth woman raises questions about Cain's behavior
Source: Washington Examiner

Donna Donella, 40, of Arlington, said the USAID paid Cain to deliver a speech to businessmen and women in Egypt in 2002, during which an Egyptian businesswoman in her 30s asked Cain a question.

"And after the seminar was over," Donella told The Washington Examiner, "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?'"

Donella, who no longer works for USAID, said they were suspicious of Cain's motives and declined to set up the date. Cain responded, "Then you and I can have dinner." That's when two female colleagues intervened and suggested they all go to dinner together, Donella said.

Cain exhibited no inappropriate sexual behavior during the dinner, though he did order two $400 bottles of wine and stuck the women with the bill, she said.

How Cain thought all of his shady exploits (I'm being generous) would never see the light of day when he is running for President of the United States is truly amazing.

1. ...he did order two $400 bottles of wine and stuck the women with the bill...
What a scuzz! And he was trying to hit on an Egyptian woman, to boot? He might not have wanted to run afoul of the law over that way, the idiot!

And you truly do learn something new (and a bit odd) every day:

The next time the women heard from Cain was Christmas, when he sent them his gospel CD.

4. OK, so now it's FIVE women.
How many wronged women do there have to be before the far-right extremists will acknowledge that maybe, just MAYBE, Cain is damaged goods and shouldn't be president? Seven? Ten? FIFTY?

I will never, ever understand conservatives.
