The Washington Examiner reports that a fifth woman has come
forward complaining of “questionable” behavior by Herman Cain.
A former employee of
the United States Agency for International Development says Republican
presidential candidate Herman Cain asked her to help arrange a dinner date for
him with a female audience member following a speech he delivered nine years
ago. 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 “aggressively”
attacks fourth accuser Sharon Bialek
In a related development, CBS News is reporting that the
Cain campaign has distributed an email to supporters “aggressive” attacking the
first woman to publicly accuse him of sexual misconduct, Sharon Bialek. CBS says: “The email lists six specific civil
lawsuits in which Bialek was a defendant, and it cites a news report saying
that Bialek was sued over a paternity matter in 1999. The email also says that
public records show Bialek has filed for bankruptcy twice and worked for nine
employers over the last 17 years.”
