From the article:

"Cain responded to questions concerning abortion in the case of rape or incest and said that, while he is pro-life, government should have no role in making the decision. However, some observers say Cain was talking about more than rape or incest and point to his comments saying it appears he was talking about abortion in a general sense when saying government should have no role in protecting unborn children from abortions."

So it's not about what Cain said, it's about what some, anonymous, "observers" say what Cain was really talking about, even though it contradicts what Cain said only minutes before.

Cains abortion views are clear and this articles is a dishonest hit piece because Cain refused to sign the organizations "pledge". Good! I want my President beholding to no one except the voters, and this includes pro-life organizations.

I hope your right, because now I am confused.

The article seems to imply that Cain is personally strongly against abortion even in cases of rape of incest, but as far as policy and laws go Cain (according to this article) seems to think the government should stay out of it, and leave the choice to women. Which would make him... pro choice..

He needs to clarify this asap. This is the kind of thing I want to hear directly from the candidate and not from excerpts from an interview.
