WASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 02: Republican presidential candidate and former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza Herman Cain participates in a discussion with members of the Congressional Health Care Caucus on Capitol Hill November 2, 2011 in Washington, DC. Part of the “Thought Leaders Series,” Cain and members of the caucus discussed the current health care system and health care initiatives for the future. Cain has been making headlines for the past two days after POLITICO.com reported Sunday that the National Restaurant Association paid settlements to two female employees who accused Cain of harassment when he was president of the association in the 1990s.

There were several surprising revelations about the pizza peddler/one-time GOP front-runner during Sunday night’s Tea Party rally at a Tampa megachurch. First, while many believe he dropped out of the race due to numerous sexual harassment allegations, he blamed “lies and dirty politics” for his exit. Also, according to his introduction, he possesses “tremendous Reagan-esque qualities” and he isn’t miffed about not getting a speaking role at the Republican National Convention. “It’s not about me, it’s about the grandkids,” he said. “That’s what a lot of people don’t understand about what Herman is up to.”
