Two More Women Accuse Franken, One of Groping Her Breast, The Other of Forcing His Tongue Down Her Throat

Three incidences make a pattern. Six incidences make a compulsion.

Another grope on a USO tour, this one of a female veteran, via CNN:

"When he put his arm around me, he groped my right breast. He kept his hand all the way over on my breast," Kemplin said in an interview. "I've never had a man put their arm around me and then cup my breast. So he was holding my breast on the side."

Kemplin repeatedly used the word "embarrassed" to describe her immediate reaction at the time.

"I remember clenching up and how you just feel yourself flushed," she said. "And I remember thinking -- is he going to move his hand? Was it an accident? Was he going to move his hand? He never moved his hand."

Via Jezebel, a minor elected liberal politician in New England (who's remaining anonymous) says Franken stuck his tongue in her mouth during an Air America sketch show.

As for the first new allegation, Franken issued another one of his "I'm very sorry but my memory is so fuzzy about grabbin up on tits I can't remember" specials.
