Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain will decide "before Monday" on whether to quit the race for the White House as claims of a 13-year affair threatened to end a campaign dogged by sex scandals.
Cain, once the front-runner to take on President Barack Obama in November 2012 elections, has denied wrongdoing, saying he was only friends with his latest accuser, Ginger White, who says they had a sexual relationship.
"Before Monday we'll make a decision," Cain said in an interview on Fox News late Thursday, admitting that a flurry of allegations of misconduct had sent his presidential bid "off message."
"It's not fair to my family, it's not fair to my supporters, it's not fair to this campaign, it's every week, now three out of four weeks... we've been hit with another one of these accusations," he said.
"The decision could be we're going to continue with this campaign, full speed ahead. The decision could be we're going to suspend the campaign.

OMG! Is she saying that now?
Even if Cain was doing this strictly to help her out, which is very slim, it lends credence to the other allegations to GOP base voters that can’t be overcome. He may be able to keep going if he had a D after his name. Clinton slid by with far more stuff. Rats love this garbage, but not the GOP Base.
Being a married American male, there is only one reason to pick the tab up on a woman like this and not tell your wife.
Drudge has the interview quote. Here is the link to the paper that did the interview.

Um .. he spent money on this gal by his own admission, but he hid it from his wife.
bingo
Another Perrymour slavishly doing his bidding.
Yeah put a fork in him he is done. Now I’m depressed because we’ll either get a RINO elitist or Obama again. Oh well, it was a good country while it lasted.
Deeeep hole to extract from.
For many of us, he was the default Tea Party candidate when SP unannounced.
We will now “reassess” our advocacy.
Too much drama... somethings up...
I asked “did his wife know?” The other day
now we know the answer
What I cannot believe is how he can continue the story that no affair happened.
If he didnt get sex out of this deal he was a total fool to get into it, and looks even worse in my book.
Helping a mean nasty woman such as this monetarily without proof of what transpired is not a very smart or conservative thing to do.
You dont do anything these days without thinking of potential trouble that could arise.....and that includes giving women money.
Cain is the one under the microscope.
Not me.
Cain try to explains this **** away, but he admits that he was paying a woman that his wife did not know , with Their funds.
How does that look?
Tonight he tried to deflect it by saying he had done the same for male friends.
Are you buying this shuck and jive samantha?
I just don’t see this as neglecting his wife.
He’s the one earning the money. Lots of it apparently.
Maybe the amounts involved are such that they have no effect on what money is available to the wife for her spending.
You say he “hid” but you don’t know that this is true. There are plenty of things that I don’t tell other people, but I am not “hiding” these things. They just aren’t those other people’s business.
You are pretending to know things that you do not know.
He hosed his wife.
Do they have a prenup?
Bitch slapping the media does not make you qualified for Presidency or Ann Coulter and Brent Bozelle would qualify.
It has only been as good as it has because others had far more starch in their shorts than you apparently do.
You are being ignorant.
You are posting stupid, ugly things.
This is known as "trolling".
