As Herman Cain’s campaign deals with allegations of a 13-year long affair to go along with accusations of sexual harassment and assault, one of his supporters says the stories are all wrong — and she would know.

In an interview with CBS, Arizona State Sen. Lori Klein, Cain’s campaign chair in the state, said he’s “never been anything but a gentlemen – and I am not an unattractive woman.”

She said that Cain should sue Ginger White for alleging the affair, adding that in politics “we want a virgin to do a hooker’s job.”
