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

Perry seems too close to islamists and Grover Norquist for me.
Super duper soldier dad;) A mother-lode of logic.
I think I can stop making comments now - you take it from here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Cain HAD to know this would all come out ...”
And what is “this”? The accusations by false witnesses? Is that what you’re talking about?
I suppose as a black man, he should have expected such cliched accusations.
Hah! John Belushi quote my daughter loves to use.
That was my thought. Not judging the guy, Lord knows I've not earned my wings.
All the woman coming out in regards to harassment, then this one alleging a 13yr affair. Pretty bold claim if not true.
13yrs? She would almost certainly have something to corroborate her claim that would be irrefutable....my guess.
To NOT have to show ID when voting is so insanely ridiculous that I can’t even deal with it. It absolutely infuriates me. Thank God my state requires a photo ID. This is one subject that pi$$es me off so much..... there are no words to express how much, at least not ones that I can say on FR.
How can you be so sure all the accusations are false? One - maybe, two - possibly, but at a certain number you have to wonder...
Of course, Clinton managed to win with women coming out of the woodwork.
If cain leaves, who it sounded a little over 2 weeks ago would get Trump’s endorsement, then I’ll go out on a limb...Donald trump will run 3rd party. If Laurie Roth can run 3rd party then Trump can too. So plan on Trump at least to start attacking the GOP elites. This is a strong possibility. Trump looked to be leaning towards candidates who are losing support. Bachmann, Perry, Cain and Santorum. So his critera will be met to run and that is that nobody worth it is emerging to win the nomination. Not sure how Trump feels about Gingrich. But he didn’t sound favorable of Ron Paul and Mitt Romney.
She only provided records for 4 months, but said 13 years in total. Herman admitted he’s known her for 13 years. So thats not in question.
Herman was clearly close to her to contact her that much during a campaign (or close to the beginning of it). I’ll say it again... if a guy is contacting a woman who isn’t a relative or a coworker that much, something is going on.
RE: At least Newt is on a roll...
He has a history of representing conservatives MUCH better than Mitt!!!
The next question is this — what other skeletons are there on Newt’s already full closet?
Gordon acknowledged that Cain in a staff call this morning used the word “reassess” about the campaign, but said it was not about whether or not he was going to drop out. Similar reassessments took place after the Iowa straw poll and at one point when the campaign was low on money, he said.
“My interpretation of that is that we are looking to assess where we are at today and where we need to be moving into the primary,” Gordon said.
The campaign will rethink what states Cain visits, the types of speeches he gives and what interviews he conducts.
The liberal mainstream media keeps knocking out our conservative candidates like Palin and Cain etc.
Jump in Pat Buchanan. Or we need to draft Pat.
Anyway Pat Buchanan has the best positions on illegal immigration and on China. Pat is miles ahead of ANYONE on these issues and others. Pat is brilliant. Read his books then you’ll see.
his is what Pat Buchanan says on immigration. You all tell me which politician has a better plan:
“Stop the invasion from the south; limit immigration
Buchanan said his exclusion from the three televised debates between Bush and Gore kept viewers from a real discussion of issues like immigration. “One of the great social crises of this country is unrestricted immigration and an invasion from the south,” he said. “I will cut back legal immigration to 250,000 a year and I will defend America’s border, if necessary with American troops.”

Pat Buchanan on China
China trade pact is a complete sellout
Buchanan branded the Clinton Administration’s trade deal with China a “complete sellout.” Buchanan said the agreement, reached on Nov. 15, would continue a move toward world government at the expense of American workers. He said the minute he is elected president, “the new world order crashes.”

Impose tariffs on China; end World Bank loans
Beijing does not deserve the same preferential treatment as Britain. The US should negotiate a reciprocal treaty with China that imposes on its goods at least the same tariffs and taxes Beijing imposes on ours, and we should veto any additional World Bank and Asian Development Bank loans to China. These are nothing but foreign aid.
Unlike real compasses which are driven by physical laws, moral compasses don’t always point in the same direction, all the time. That’s why they’re not that good as a reference...except to the owner.
There is no shortage of women in the street who, for a modest fee, will claim anything you want them to claim. If Mr. Cain doesn't have good documentary evidence of where he was between 10:30pm and 11:30pm on June 17, 1986 then whatever that woman says will be the truth, because she says so. She will never need to repeat the claim under oath; but if she does then the fee doubles.
US politics is very much like gladiatorial combat. The public is in to see the blood spilled; it hardly matters to it who wins and who dies. There are no IQ requirements for voting, and that is what kills democracy. The riffraff votes in whatever way it pleases; common sense and wisdom need not apply.
In the end the modern US democracy, with its finely tuned mechanism of two similar parties and backroom deals and total control of media, is not much different from the regime of old USSR, for example, or any other "democracy in the name only." The same hand-picked people are installed, and the same unwanted people are set aside. The harder the undesired candidate fights the system the more pain is dished out, just as if he is hitting a brick wall with his head. If Cain decides to stop hitting the wall he knows that his chances of breaking through are zero.

There is major upheaval in the (near IMO) future. Very major. Immorality is the most destructive force, and I don’t just mean sexual. It’s all of one cloth. Either one recongizes and tries to follow the laws of God, or one doesn’t. And such laws are not sectarian dogmas, they are universal natural laws.
A country or society that rejects God’s authority and His laws will soon self destruct, it’s really simple.
You lighten up first. I’m already light enough.

From a Cain Volunteer:
I was on a conference call at 11:15am this morning with Herman Cain himself, where he explained to us that, once again, the accusations against him are COMPLETELY FALSE. He ALSO explained that he is NOT considering dropping out of the campaign, despite what the media is reporting. The campaign is moving forward as planned. Additionally, he shared that Ginger White WAS a friend of his (and his wife...’s) and she was a struggling unemployed single mom who received several eviction notices due to being unable to pay her rent. So being the good man that he is, Mr. Cain helped her out financially as a FRIEND, as he has done for other friends in the past. This is what you get for being a good person in this country. Isn’t that freakin’ great!?
Ginger White’s track record - she filed for bankruptcy, has had several eviction notices with the most recent one being this past month, she’s had lawsuits against her for stalking and for LIBEL, she accused a past employer of sexual harassment which was settled out of court, her EX stated he wouldn’t put it past her to make false accusations against anyone for money, her lawyer is a left-wing Democrat and an Obama supporter who has donated over 4k to his campaign, etc.
Does none of this matter to anyone!?
I personally have ZERO respect for ANYONE so narrow-minded that they’ll give ANY amount of consideration or credibility to ANY of these UNFOUNDED accusations. How can people be so easily led and influenced by the media?? Whatever happened to INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY? Do we not have minds of our own??
Honestly? All this does is make me support even more.
And is it just me?? Or does it seem absolutely INSANE that anyone would run for POTUS if they knew they had something THIS HUGE to hide!? I’d like to believe Cain is much smarter than that.
Instead of allowing this UNPROVEN crap to influence our support of Mr. Cain, maybe we should fight it with everything in our being with articles like the one below, which of course is not getting nearly the media attention as all the false accusations.
