Here are some parameters I’d consider...

1. Did Cain and wife support a number of people over the years, and did his wife always know every single one of them?

2. Is Cain’s wife suffering due to a shortage of funds in the family because of the giving?

3. What were the funds used for? Did Cain help her with rent money or food, or was he buying her gifts?

4. Are Cain’s actions any worse than those of Martin Luther King Jr., a man that has essentially replaced our founding fathers in the minds of Leftists who think his contribution to our nation was ever so much more wholesome than theirs?

I don’t condone sexual harassment or extra-marital affairs, but what actually took place is still unknown.

Until it is, and it disqualifies Cain from being the man we need in charge, I’ll still support him.

To answer your first question, Cain said last night:

“Unfortunately, I’m a softy, and I feel sorry for people when they get in deep financial trouble,” he told Fox News. “This isn’t the only person I have helped.”
He has acknowledged his wife did not know about their arrangement, but said he was also helping a male friend financially, which his wife didn’t know about either.”

Of course Cain's wife didn't suffer from a shortage of funds. Cain funded the start of this campaign with something like $675,000 of his own money.

I watched a video interview with Ginger White. She said he always gave her cash. So there will be no record of it.

She said their sexual affair had really trailed off in the last 2.5 years. That's also when she said the financial help occurred - in the last 2.5 years. So Ginger White is not claiming that he supported her financially for 13 years. White said the money was for household expenses, like rent and utilities.

The segment also said her October and November phone bills showed:

37 texts and 1 phone call in October

46 texts and 0 phone calls in November

White said the texts would be about where to meet or what their schedules were, so that he could give her money - always cash.

White was asked how much money, over the years. She said she didn't want to get into that. The interviewer, AH Lawrence O'Donnell, accepted that response from her at face value. But when Cain was asked the same question by the newspaper editorial board the day before, and when Cain said he cannot answer that right now, based on counsel from his attorney, O'Donnell blasted Cain and said it was absolutely unheard of for a Presidential candidate to refuse to answer a question based on "advice from his criminal lawyer."

That's right, he said CRIMINAL lawyer.

As for MLK:
