Herman Cain's presidential campaign is weathering mounting allegations of sexual harassment linked so far only to his tenure as the head of the National Restaurant Association, allegations tied to tens of thousands of dollars in payouts to his accusers. Republican voters, however, are mostly dismissing the story. They've filled Cain's campaign coffers with cash over the last two weeks and they booed the CNBC debate moderators who tried to bring up the scandal during last night's debate in Michigan.
