Meanwhile the GOP refuses to give us a candidate worth voting for.

Cain was my last hope. I would not touch any of the others. The only one I will NOT vote for is Romney. My choice, second to Cain, is Perry.

Oh well. We’ll see what this story is really about.

If Cain leaves, Newt will be in for the fight of his life. Newt will be attacked in a way that makes these Cain allegations look tame in comparison.

Great news for Perry, looks like he’s my guy. Cain lost me over the Fed position, it needs to go away.......

Same here. I guess it's time to go buy some rolling papers and get behind Gary Johnson!

I will be disappointed if he drops out. For once, I would like to see someone say. Yep, so what. Now let’s get back to making me President of the United States. I am not saying he did this, but sheesh the media hates this guy so much.

I’d be reassessing too. Why would anyone run for president as a conservative in this country?

Anyhow, if Cain leaves the race, I won’t be voting.

The only reason... the ONLY reason he would consider this is because he doesn’t want the truth to come out about this woman. Clearly, IMHO, there must be some truty to what she is alleging. Sad. the only candidates that are otherwise clean are Romney, Perry, Bachman, Paul and Santorum

So, with Cain out that leaves us with a Liberal, a serial adulterer, an illegal loving moron, a fruitcake, a self-immolating conservative fruitcake, a conservative who never really even ran a campaign, and an even bigger liberal than Mittens.

UGH

Cain HAD to know this would all come out..that they’d come after him..looking for ANYTHING..he didn’t prepare..didn’t tell his staff..and that alone, IMO, makes him not ready for day ONE in the Oval office..

The cumultive weight of these false accusations have buried Herman. I don’t think he even has a shot as a VP candidate now - he’s pretty much radioactive politically.

Sad. Even though Cain was never my candidate, I liked him.

I think he knows that this “affair” revelation is going to take on a life of its’ own and he needs to take it off the headlines and make peace with his wife.

Newt’s personal baggage is already out there. It’s an old story.

"Herman Cain told his senior staff that he is “reassessing” whether to remain in the race"

translation: It's over.

I’m standing firm with Bachmann and won’t be voting for the 3 amigos. I’ll skip the presidential race if that’s what it takes and concentrate on the senate and house.

The GOP is trying to crush the tea party and if they want a jihad, let them blow themselves up.
