In a conference call this morning, Herman Cain told his senior staff that he is “reassessing” whether to remain in the race

The Chicago way.
If it really is news to Mrs. Cain that Herman has had a 13-year ‘friendship’ with this latest woman, whom he called more than 60 times in a few months supposedly because he was trying to help her financially—but the woman says it was an affair—it is understandable that he might not be in a position to press on.
And the fault would be Mr. Cain’s.
I don’t know, most of Newt’s history is just that: history
Just damn!
That said, I hate the dishonest MSM with every ounce of my being.
It’s sad but the writing has been on the wall for some time now. The G.O.P. establishment will not allow an outsider to win the nod. The Democrats cannot allow Cain and Obama to stand on the same stage.
Wether Cain did these things or not is beside the point, they will continue to bring these largely unsubstantiated charges out of nowhere until people grow so weary of defending him that even his most ardent supporters will ask him to withdraw.
I am sick of it already, I am looking at Newt and Perry. I like Perry better on policy but the idea of him debating Obama scares the living hell out of me. Criminy, he makes “Dubya” sound like a flippin’ genius!
Newt? I disagree FAR more with Newt on policy but there exists no scenario in my mind where he does not mop the debate stage with Obama.
Coin flip I guess.
“Meanwhile the GOP refuses to give us a candidate worth voting for.”
Conservative loyalty to the GOP is misplaced. The break will come eventually.
UGH is right.
(Actually it was right before this latest revelation.)
Well, to be fair (and frank), I’m following this race as people follow sporting events. I am a prepper and consider the country (and western civilization) as done, almost certainly in 2012.
Heck, why restate it. Here is how I feel about it: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2795993/posts?page=4#4
Or maybe he just doesn't like the effect this is having on his invalid wife. If the accusations are false he could easily decide it just isn't worth putting his wife through ever greater onslaughts which would be sure to come. That's just as plausible as your scenario.
Will be a huge boon to Gingrich. Honestly, Gingrich is an imperfect choice, but he is more conservative than either of the Bush’s, and certainly would be better than ObamaRomney.
Cain would have to be an absolute fool to run for President while just ending an affair, does he think he’s a Democrat or something?
BS Herman!!! Don’t give them what they want!!! Did you think this was going to be easy???
Did you really think the left was going to play by the rules???
Are you really that Naive???
If you fail to take this bull by the horns and bury a sword through it’s heart, then maybe you shouldn’t be president.
Stand up and fight dammit!
I predicted that 2 weeks ago.
A no brainer.
What will happen is the Bush/Rove Republican frauds will be pushing Perry down everyone's throat...
Same old cheet...Different year..Another open borders president from Texas.
America is screwed.
Well he probably thought NYOB which he is right. I am voting for him unless of course he drops out. If he drops out there are ONLY two other candidates that I will vote for in the General and that is Bachmann and Santorum. If they go down than I am writing in Sarah. I don’t care. I am so sick of having liberal Republicans forced down our throats.
I opened my wallet to Hunter... Poof!
I opened my wallet to Thompson... Poof!
I opened it for Palin...Poof!
Then I opened it to Cain... Poof!
I'm going to keep the damned thing closed!!!
I want her to produce the birthday cards, Valentine’s day cards, etc with the I love you & kisses Herman at the bottom. After 13yrs, she has to have quite a collection.
“Sad. Even though Cain was never my candidate, I liked him.”
Same here.
“Don’t quit now Herman Cain, you’re our only hope”
“That man was our last hope”
“No, there is another”
“Ancient business skills and hokey sayings are no match for a well-oiled smear machine, kid”
