Will we ever see a time in America where a presidential candidate is not surrounded by a controversy? I don't believe so. The most recent scandal involves Republican candidate Herman Cain allegedly groping four women back in the 1990's. My question to these women who all but one have remain anonymous, Why now? I am positive that if he was not running in the election that these women would not have ever come forward. This political article is very informative and its purpose is to inform the public that another women has come forward in this ever growing scandal.
“Mr. Cain said, ‘You want a job, right?’ ” she said, writers Jim Rutenberg and Michael D. Shear used many quotes from Sharon Bialek, the accuser, in order to show all of the facts. This article is written to inform, but also I find it a little sarcastic. Rutenberg and Shear use simple diction because this article has a very large audience, from a high schooler to a man on his way to work. At this point in time, I believe that everyone is a little annoyed with all of these women and I believe that the past is in the past and should be forgotten about. It has been well over ten years and how do we even know that these women can remember word for word conversation with Herman Cain.

Sounds like these women may have a similar personality type to the woman accusing Justin Beiber of fathering her child...3 months after the child was born.
