BREAKING!! Aide: Herman Cain will stay in the race
The State Column ^ | Nov 29, 2011 | Staff

Posted on 11/29/2011 3:06:48 PM PST by Jim Robinson

After reports surfaced Tuesday morning that pizza magnate Herman Cain is reassessing his 2012 Republican presidential nomination bid, POLITICO obtained a statement from a Cain campaign spokesman regarding his candidates’ consideration of dropping out of the race.

“Yes,” the campaign spokesman said Tuesday when asked whether Cain would “definitely” remain in the race.

The clarification comes after the National Review Online released statements that Cain made in a conference call with campaign aides Tuesday morning. During the call, Cain made the following statements, “We have to do an assessment as to whether or not this is going to create too much of a cloud, in some people’s minds, as to whether or not they would be able to support us going forth,” Cain said.

I am liking this guy more and more. He’s a fighter and will improvise, adapt and overcome. Anyone who thinks smooth and suave is going to lead us out of this mess we’re in is delusional.

This is just the beginning of what may be the most important, the dirtiest and most aggressive campaign for the presidency in our nation's history.

The outcome may well determine the future of our country.

Hmmm, where them Newtbots (i.e. Romneybots) at? None have them have conversed on this thread so far. Perhaps it has something to do with the OP of the thread. lol

I’m still on the Cain train. He should pi$$ off his critics and make this his campaign song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBBm2x6nKIo

Romney’s campaign song should be something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_FreDrOFd0

Huntsman would be something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7hBf2wXmjA

Newt’s arrogance alone turns me off at the moment he begins to speak.

It just shows that he’s been lurking in the halls of power for far too long as it is.

Good news, albeit disappointing for many including the Marxist Kenyan.

I think it's his best quality. I love the way he puts idiots in their place.

His fundraising has most likely all but dried up. His campaign will starve for a lack of $$$

Not as long as true conservatives continue to support Herman Cain and contribute what they can, as often as they can up to the legal limits. That's what kept Cain going for a long time before the big money showed up, and there is nothing that says (beyond your premature pessimism) that it's going to disappear.

If Palin would have run, we wouldn’t have to be dealing with this sleazy incompetent nonsense.

Cain supporters should definitely watch this video of Cain and Wolf Blitzer. Wolf asks him if he will drop out:

Cain is right.

I’m still on the Cain Train too and I’m leaving the whole situation in God’s hands.
