Cain was known for casual style with staff at association
As a boss, Herman Cain made it a habit to stop by and talk to his employees, even the lowest-ranking. Often, he suggested that staffers, men and women, continue the conversation over drinks or dinner — one of many ways he blurred lines between the social and professional. He admitted that he hated to eat alone.

Cain was casual, confident and jocular, the same traits that have propelled him to the front of the Republican presidential race and kept him there in the face of sexual harassment allegations.

As he hit the campaign trail Thursday for the first time since the accusations surfaced nearly two weeks ago, his campaign said he had raised $9 million in the past six weeks. And the candidate expressed surprise at the size of the crowd he attracted to a morning event in Michigan, where more than 100 tea party supporters gathered to see him.

“I thought I was just going to sit down with a couple of people and have some bacon and eggs,” said Cain, once again exuding confidence, seemingly recovered from the moments last week when he was seen wiping his brow under questioning.

1. "Cain was casual, confident and jocular" Yeah he sounds like a real barrel of laughs.
The groped women could hardly stop laughing I'm sure.

2. Is this the same "don't speak to me unless I speak to you first" guy?
Mr. Casual.
