Last night Greta Van Susteren interviewed the wife of Herman Cain, Gloria. Gloria was delightful, but the interview was painful. Those pointed questions that no wife wants to think about, much less answer, were simply awful to hear. At what point are questions like those just disrespectful?
Certainly anyone who comes along to this point in a presidential race is going to stand by their man. You don’t make it to the cameras if you are going to throw your man under the bus.
I have never been one to protect men from this kind of interrogation. I have always believed the “where there is smoke there is fire” theory. However, by George, I will defend their wives. Most cases like the one Herman Cain is being accused of end up being “he said/she said.” In the end, we never really know. What we believe depends usually, on whether we like or don’t like the person.
Gloria Cain deserves better. Take that one to the bank.
