And my third choice is....uh....wait, what was it?....The EPA?....oops....

It is very unfortunate, that there isn’t a real conservative without this sort of baggage. I am truly disheartened by all this. After Cain, who’s turn is it next, to have their (on the side) dalliances revealed by the media? I’m beginning to think all the candidates have these bimbos that they hope don’t erupt. This whole thing is making me sick.

Just talked to his office

I was told that he is NOT DROPPING OUT!

His advisors want him to keep his present dates, step back and see how his supporters react to this....

what I was told....

The ONLY WAY TO STOP THE CORRUPTION IN DC IS TO STOP SENDING CORRUPT AZZES BACK THERE!!

WE MUST NOT LET THE MSM AND THE ELITES GET AWAY WITH THIS!!

The OTHER reason is that with all this crap he can’t spend any time campaigning. I am so sick of these assasins. I hope if he does quit and he is not lying that he goes after all these women for character assasination. I would give to his legal defense fund!

Somehow I don’t think Mrs. Cain would require that particular line of evidence.

And BTW I liked Herman Cain. I haven’t settled on a candidate to back, but he was closest.

And people continue to get on my case because I haven't settled on a candidate yet. This is why, folks.

It’s over, the skank squad won.

I can’t believe anyone would run for president and think they could get away with a decade + long affair. Cain cost me a TON of money.

I really don’t think these came out of nowhere. Someone must have known something or they wouldn’t have even bothered bringing it up in the first place.

If it was someone we didn’t like, they acted this way and this happened, we’d know for sure that they were guilty.

That isn’t the issue.

The issue is this.

NO ONE from the goddamn GOP stuck up for this man. In fact they all turned their backs on him, so I am doing the same to them.

I will never be loyal to cowards, sorry.

I generally follow the “vote for the most conservative candidate who can win” mantra. If Cain is out, then that means Newt. Anyone who is more conservative than Obomney.

We could dream I guess.

I might just sit out this election. Let the GOP try to win without conservatives.

George Bush had eloquence?

I think that was the point of the slam.

Although, GWB was a much better speaker when speaking informally. It was just those prepared speeches that didn't come over well, because they were so unnatural for him. But in Q&A and off-the-cuff stuff, he always seemed to come over a lot better.

Perry also rises to the top (to the top, that is, of what’s left) for me. I won’t soon forget his “have no heart” comment but am “heart”ened by Arpaio’s endorsement.

The Democratic machine couldn't sink Cain with the harassment charges, so they ratcheted the attack up to the next level, an actual affair.

A conservative black man as the GOP nominee is their worst nightmare, and they will do EVERYTHING they can to prevent it.
