Mika Brzezinski: "Herman Cain was head of the National Restaurant Association. He was powerful before he was running for presidnet – and nobody spoke out then – what does they say about them? Because if someone is a predator, a sexual predator, and they do something to you and you don’t speak out you’re letting it go. Clearly this woman and Gloria Allred are very interested in the limelight right now -- and I wonder what their reasons are. I'm sure I'll get attacked online for saying this."
Joe Scarborough: "You've got a debate going on, on your Twitter feed."
Mika Brzezinski: "It's 50/50. There are tweets popping up left and right regarding my comments on the fourth [Herman Cain sexual harassment] accuser. Some are saying she couldn’t have spoken out until now and that I'm blaming the victim. And others are saying that I'm absolutely right. The only thing I'd like to add to it is that I just think there are questions on both sides of the story, and we should be able to ask them. I think Gloria Allred has a track record of cashing in for high-profile people who have a bone to pick, and they happen to be women, and it has to do with sex."
