What does surprise me is that everyone who is dropping their support for Cain for his possible affair is moving to Newt who definitely had one.
Lots of whiners at this thread in 3, 2, 1....
From his speeches and what the campaign is doing, it is looking like they’re going full steam ahead with the campaign. But we’ll see. If Cain drops, I’m dropping the GOP.
I’m 50/50 at the moment on whether he’ll quit. I could easily see him saying that he doesn’t want to put his family through any more of it. I could also easily see him announcing defiantly that he won’t be forced out.
Cain has always said he never was much of a “politically correct” leader.
If he quits, I hope he takes it to the Media, the Dems and the Country-club Pubbies in a very “un-PC” way.
Use words like “plantation”, “runaway slave”, “upitty n*99*r” and the like. I thought Cain might give the CC-Pubbies a run. I am just so sick of “professional politicians”.
I hope at least some black people noticed there was a viable black republican candidate before the MSM took him down.
Me either, but I don’t think his ego would allow him drop out.
Why schedule an event disclosing your campaign team on Saturday if you’re going to say on Friday that you’re not campaigning?
I’ve heard people saying that no guy gives money without expecting something in return.
I’ve heard people say that if a man gives even a drop in the bucket out of the family’s finances without telling his wife it’s got to be because he’s up to no good. We don’t know amounts, but if Cain has 5 million and gave $500, that would be like somebody who earns $50,000 a year not telling his wife about a $5 donation. Shall we look at everybody’s checkbook and see whether they told their spouse about every $5 they gave to somebody in need? Ideally, yeah maybe. In reality? I’m not sure that’s how busy millionaires spend their time with their spouse - telling about every $5 they gave.
I started posting at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2814962/posts?page=134#134 some thoughts that I think people need to consider before they crucify Herman Cain.
If he quits because conservatives turned on him, it will complete the conversion of what I thought was a kind, middle-America movement into the pitted-out, kindness-doesn’t-exist, Chicago-thug mentality we see on the national political stage.
Sad. Very, very sad. Enough to make me want to kiss it all good-bye and write this nation off as lost.
That's what liberals are hoping for...
High tech lynching from the establishment thugs succeed ? I hope not ! IMHO, our problem are these professional politicians. This country was meant to be represented by ordinary citizens, not elitists ! When Reagan was POTUS, the quality of him was very high but also he was not a “professional politician” ! The quality of professional politicians really sucks !
Im sick about this. I dont like any of the other candidates. This is the Elites way of saying “Romney!”
How did she avoid being his baby momma? That seems unbelievable in this day.
I think it is interesting that no one has forwarded the notion that perhaps Ms. White may be a Cain operative clandestinely being used by the Cain campaign to expose the opposition and the LSM in one knock-out punch.
That might be interesting.
What i find so disheartening is that the most conservative, tea-party supporting candidates: Bachmann, Santorum and Cain are being ignored or politaclly lynched. And here we are again, allowing the Obama loving MSM, Rhino loving beltway Repubs to choose our canidates.
And before you say Newt is a conservative, is he really?
I really hope he doesn’t, but would understand if he did.
He is a decent, successful man, far too nice to be hanging around in the snake circles of politics.
He could be added to the list of great men that should have been president. Americas loss, the worlds loss.
Welcome to the United Soviet States of America..where the Pravda State Media “vet” the candidates to the pleasure and needs of the RinoCrat UniParty.
This “election” will be a non-election...featuring the state approved “candidates”-whose only distinction is whether they are black or white.
Hopefully for the Cain family, this train wreck can come to an end.
Imagine if you had given money to him! I think it’s not so much the affair as a feeling he’s not trustworthy. Not so sure Mr. Newt is, but at least we don’t have him issuing thundering denials that he ever slept around. I’m not totally jumping the Cain ship, but then I was never really on it. If he’s done he’s done.
