Quote from pspr:
It's looking like this woman is a real piece of work. It seems she files for bankruptcy every 10 years. Guess what? It's exactly 10 years since her last bankruptcy.
....Meanwhile, a friend of Ms Bialek, from Chicago, told the New York Post: 'She has a very infectious personality. Itâs easy to see how she won [Cain] over. But the reality of her situation is -- sheâs a complete gold digger. Itâs all about the money.'
Adding that she was from a middle-income family but lives in a posh house while running from bill collectors, the source said: 'Most of her jobs ended in termination. Itâs always the employerâs fault, not hers.
'This is a lady who lives off the system. She is hellbent on finding a way of never having to work and living the lifestyle she wants to live, a very affluent lifestyle.'
Details of a number of legal and financial difficulties have since emerged, with the Chicago Tribune listing a long history with tax evasion and late or missed credit card payments.
The paper reported that Ms Bialek has filed for personal bankruptcy twice, first in 1991 and then again in 2001.
In 2001, she claimed $5,700 in assets and more than $36,000 in liabilities. Among the creditors seeking payment was a management firm demanding back rent of $4,500, four credit card companies and a lawyer asking for his legal fees.

Quote from Max E. Pad:
I was thinking the same thing yesterday, the other stories about Cain probably have credibility as both Cain and the company settled, but as i said yesterday this womans story stinks to high heaven, She is making the ridiculuos claim that she is not in it for the money, she just wants Cain to apologize and move on, as if thats even a possibility.
Then she goes ahead and attaches the biggest lowlife in history (even by lawyer standards) Gloria Allred to her cause, and she says the reason she didnt come foreword before was because she was worried about getting a bad image 14 years ago but NOW she wants to bring this thing into the national spotlight, when it could have been settled with no media attention 15 years ago.

Do you really believe Bialek is speaking out to help Cain beat Obama as she says? If not then why believe anything else she spews?

That's probably true but she has probably also embellished what happened. He probably did something like put his arm around her and asked if she wanted to come up to his suite. Totally reasonable behavior in my mind.Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
She's speaking out to help herself, obviously. That said, I don't find her claims totally beyond belief. They just don't amount to much, even if true.
Quote from Trader666:
Not necessarily. Sometimes a short sighted business decision is made to settle because it can be cheaper and more low key than fighting it.
