Details emerge about sexual harassment complaint against Herman Cain (Jim Young/Reuters)

Politico reports new details about one of the sexual harassment complaints against Herman Cain, basing its report on “multiple sources independently familiar” with the incident:

The woman in question, roughly 30 years old at the time and working in the National Restaurant Association’s government affairs division, told two people directly at the time that Cain made a sexual overture to her at one of the group’s events, according to the sources familiar with the incident. She was livid and lodged a verbal complaint with an NRA board member that same night, these sources said.

The woman told one of the sources Cain made a suggestion that she felt was overtly sexual in nature and that “she perceived that her job was at risk if she didn’t do it.”

Well, perhaps now we know why Herman Cain is no longer demanding Rick Perry’s apology.

4:01 PM PT: And Gloria Cain won’t be on Fox tomorrow as originally planned.
