My take on Cain's situation is that from the first allegation,
he decided (on PR advice ?) to adopt a campaign strategy of:
"Deny, Deny, Deny..."

Now, he is stuck with it, no matter what the truth may be.

See, he got it wrong.

step one: feign ignorance
step two: deny
step three: counter accuse


Example:

"What are you talking about? I didn't do that. I think YOU did it."

Leaves them flustered, and you can move forward.

"I didn't do that. I didn't do that. I didn't do that." Sounds like you're protesting too much.
