Just moments ago, Republican Presidential candidate Herman Cain announced that another woman was about to accuse him of an "extended affair"
Talking to Wolf Blitzer on CNN, Cain stated that he had spoken to a reporter who informed him that a new woman was about to come forward. "I'm just giving you a heads-up," Mr. Cain stated. "I don't have anything to hide."
When asked what his relationship with the woman was, Mr. Cain said that he thought the woman was a "friend," but that he was now clearly mistaken. Cain went on that he helped her get a job, but emphasized, "That's all there is to the relationship."
Wolf Blitzer then asked Cain, "Was this an affair?" Mr. Cain stated bluntly, "No."
Mr. Cain continued, saying that he has known so many people in life, that, should they all be willing to lie, "It's probably an infinite number of people that could come out with a story."
"I will not drop out of the race," Mr. Cain told Blitzer. When asked if the accusations had a racial aspect, Cain responded, "There could be."
Mr. Blitzer then asked Mr. Cain why he was still running, to which he replied, "For my grand kids and all of the other grand kids out there."
When is Blitz Wolfer going to interview Larry Sinclair about the extended Obama affair?
for later
This Cain harassment stuff is turning into a joke.
Even better, it isn’t damaging him a whole lot despite his handling of it.
Which wasn’t too great, in my opinion.
Since Sarah Palin isn’t in the running I have shifted my support to Mr. Cain. Another allegation isn’t going to change that. Actually it might just cement it even fuller.
Giving the “heads up” is a mistake. Ignore the media and the Obama bimbos. Cain has made his statement. That’s enough.
Define “affair”.
Not so sure you are right. Giving the mediots a “head’s up” and getting his side out first is a courtesy to those of us supporting his campaign.
I think it makes him look sincere and innocent of these charges.
Having an accomplished womanizer in the WH is better than having a Bwaaannney Franker in there.
The left is pure hypocrisy.
Ho-Hum!!! Axelrod, Obama, Jones, Jarrett, Biden, the CBC, the NAACP, low life liberal “dirt bags” at it again. Where, I ask, oh, where in heaven’s name is unbalanced, blinking, bulging eyed, face contortionist, ,Jonathan Martin, Politico!!! Jon, Jon where are you??? Another bimbo saga like yours is knocking on the Herman Cain door!!! Come on, Jon, go through butthead routine once more!!!
Ah - now we are getting somewhere: an actual affair!
I kept thinking to myself: if Herman Cain habitually hit on and harassed women, where are the ones with whom he was successful? After all, he was a powerful, rich, charismatic man... someone had to say “yes,” right?
If this doesn’t pan out, then it’s CLEARLY all BS.
The biggest joke is that none of these people came out of the woodwork for his senate run. Seriously? Were they all asleep at the wheel or what?
Guess we know what Obama’s spending his money on. I hope she comes forward so we can find out she also lived in Axelrod’s building. Hope she got some walking around money...

Cain Says New Accuser Comes Forward
By SUSAN SAULNY
Herman Cain said on CNN Monday afternoon that another woman had come forward to make allegations him, saying that she had an affair with him.
“I want to give you a heads up and everyone a heads up,” he told Wolf Blitzer.
He said he had been contacted by an Atlanta television station about the allegations.
“Here we go again,” he said of the allegations. “I didn’t do anything wrong.”
A Facebook page for Fox 5 Atlanta said that the station was reporting on the 13-year affair between the woman and Mr. Cain.

Whatever.
The media is desperate to get Cain and Bachmann out.
Whatever.
It has been very effective.
Unless she has tons of proof, I don’t care what she says.
Ok...just how difficult is it to hide a 13 year affair...I'd tell you what, if Herman Cain can have an affair for 13 years and not a soul know about it, he would get my vote simply because he is the smartest, slickest, smoothest dude out there...
Seriously, does CNN even make an effort to VERIFY her story before making it a news item ??
