Herman Cain is currently in the process of "reassessing his candidacy" after a Georgia woman came forward Monday alleging that she and the Republican presidential candidate were involved in a 13-year extramarital affair. This new revelation comes on the heels of allegations of sexual harassment from four separate women, all of which he denied fervently.

The ladies of 'The View' (weekdays, syndicated on ABC) tackled the scandal in their 'Hot Topics' segment, and as usual, opinions different around the table. Whoopi Goldberg observed that this latest accusation isn't against the law, and wondered if it was the public's business at all. Sherri Shepherd said it would be hard to trust a man running for president who's been this deceptive in his private life.

Elisabeth Hasslebeck interjected, wondering if Shepherd felt the same way about Bill Clinton when similar allegations surfaced about him in the early '90s. "I felt the same way about Bill Clinton. It says something about your integrity," she responded. When Hasselbeck asked Whoopi if she could trust a politician who'd been unfaithful to their spouse, Whoopi said she could.

Thankfully, Joy Behar broke up the heated discussion with some levity. "What bothers me is that this guy's been so freaking busy ... I mean no wonder he doesn't know China has nuclear weapons."
