You Know Presidential Politics Goes Tabloid When Gloria Allred Is Involved
You know presidential politics has gone tabloid when Gloria Allred is involved.
The California scandal handle attorney now represents a female Herman Cain accuser named Sharon Bialek who alleges that Hermain Cain groped her around the same time Bill Clinton was finding inventive uses for a cigar with Monica Lewinsky.

Bill Clinton suffered much more graphic and horrific allegations from Gennifer Flowers which were ultimately airbrushed aside when she graced the cover Playboy magazine.
