Employees accused Herman Cain of misconduct UPDATE

Start leading the polls and scrutiny increases. Tonight, it’s Politico with story:

During Herman Cain’s tenure as the head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, at least two female employees complained to colleagues and senior association officials about inappropriate behavior by Cain, ultimately leaving their jobs at the trade group, multiple sources confirm to POLITICO.

Cain fans need not worry. Unwanted advances to employees didn’t keep Clarence Thomas off the U.S. Supreme Court.

UPDATE: Cain denial. He’s a victim of a liberal conspiracy. Uh huh. You think the oppo researchers who dug this up were Democrats? Right.

UPDATE II: Monday morning, Cain met press and continued his denials. Settlement? What settlement?
