Nearly as many reporters as Cain supporters wait outside the Republican presidential hopeful's new office in north DeKalb County to hear whether he will still seek the presidency.
My guess is he stays.
The accusations in general, but this very last one saying Mr. Cain had an affair with her amounts to what can be called DEFAMATION of character.
@THEHermanCain saves donor $ by using #Media 2 advertise opening of Nat HQ & launch of "Women for Cain". He will save the countrys money too
I have been, since the start, and continue to be to this day, puzzled as to why anyone would see Herman Cain as a potential President. After screaming at the top of my lungs in 2007 and 2008 to the four winds that Barry Barack Soetoro was the LEAST qualified person EVER to be ELECTED (lesser qualified have run!) it seems odd that Conservatives(??) and Freepers have knowingly backed a person with 'perhaps' even less qualifications.
I have no animus with Cain. Everyone should be able to run, and seeing a NON-politician ascend the runway is heartening. But I fail to see the measure of GRAVITAS required to lead America as President in this man.
These days one tends to focus so much on the purposeful destruction of our economy that we forget a leader must have a world view and some world expertise. You can see what the lack of such ability and vision has done to us as a nation under a two-bit Chicago street thug and bagman for the Daley machine.
Who has gravitas? I don't believe Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Huntsman, or Santorum have it. Paul may have an once or two. Mittens has a teaspoon or two. And Newty probably has a half-cup. I don't even find Palin to have the requisite amount although I love her combativeness in the political arena.
Out of all the people in this country the ONLY choices we can offer up are Obama, Biden, Gingrich, Romney, Paul, Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Santorum and Huntsman. What a sad statement for America.
I find no choice! And so once again we Conservatives, a minority to be sure, find ourselves stuck with the lesser evil. Would any of OUR candidates be better than the two Communists currently ensconced at 1600? Yes. But once again we will find ourselves with Bob Dole, Bush 1 and Bush 2 and having to go along with it because,...
...ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN 4 MORE YEARS OF OBAMA. So get prepared to 'settle'. Every election we swear we won't vote for a RINO but every year the option of allowing a DemonRat to be elected overwhelms us.
But Cain? No. And I simply can't understand what you guys see or have seen in him that you would want to elevate this guy to President. As for me, there is NO choice. So I sit here feeling empty and frozen. A sad commentary.
I would post this whole thing, because it is FUNNY, but people won’t read it all, and they’ll think it’s serious. So I’ll just post the link:
Cain’s farewell message... leaked:
http://www.borowitzreport.com/2011/12/03/a-farewell-from-herman-cain/
This isn’t even about whether he can win the nomination or not...it’s MUCH bigger. This is about right and wrong, truth and lies, and whether or not we are going to let the journalistas and their overlords in the DNC rape the American Way and our electoral process. Damn the torpedoes, Mr. Cain, full spped ahead! Don’t let the bastards win this...

Cain is strong and deep in my heart I don’t see him letting the scum, worthless pigs at Politico win this disgusting smear campaign they engineered. Why would he open new HQ only to leave the race? I hope he stays in - I will support him if he does.

Remember: where there is SMOKE there just be SMOULDERING LIBERAL RESENTMENT OF CONSERVATIVE WOMAN AND MINORITIES #tcot @TheHermanCain
@nyforcain
If @TheHermanCain were to drop out of the race, it would be a win for liberal leftist media and loss for the country #standwithcain
@CA4HermanCain
Great story of encouragement from a former @TheHermanCain employee. http://www.twitlonger.com/show/egld8f #Cain2012
Who chose the music for Cain’s rally? Hysterically ironic!
Currently playing- Hey Soul Sister.....
“Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn’t forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind
Your sweet moon beam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you’re the one I have decided who’s one of my kind
Just in time, I’m so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection we can’t deny
I’m so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you’re Madonna, and I’m always gonna wanna blow your mind
The way you can cut a rug, watching you’s the only drug I need
You’re so gangsta, I’m so thug, you’re the only one I’m dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there’s nothing I can’t be
I want the world to see you be with me
Don’t want to miss a single thing you do.....tonight”
May God help Mr. Cain, his family, and be with him Lord and be with America Lord, for America and all Americans need you to be with us. Grant America and all Americans truth and justice, Lord. In Jesus name ... Amen ... Amen.
This is a man who fought and beat stage four cancer and sees that as meaning that it was for a reason, and that there is a plan for his life
He may not ultimately win the nomination but I can’t see that the MSM onslaught of lies and innuendos will force him to leave the race today.
He’s survived worse.
As to the rush by the media to condemn him: It is not just the liberal media, it is also the Carl Rove; the good old boys club of the GOP; and scared Dems who do not want Cain in the race. And, probably many CPA's and accountants have a huge concern...because with the 999 plan, they will lose a lot of business. Think about that and who else might be behind this smear campaign that is most likely has been plotted and spearheaded by entities connected to powers in Chicago because I believe Obama is the most frightened by Cain. However, that said:
There are a couple of things about this recent woman's story of a 13 year affair that have not been discussed and just do not make sense or add up. Yet, no one is asking these questions and, instead people like Rove and many in the media are assuming all the allegations have some truth. But.... (1) IF, and that is a big IF Cain helped her AND had an affair with her, just why would any sensible person expose that relationship when there was a chance that the man could become President and help her even more? It makes no sense if a person is needy and thankful for any previous help that she received. Obviously she is neither, and her statement that she was concerned about the other women who accused Cain of some sexual harassment, makes no sense either. Why would a person, who is getting money from someone, cut of their own access to funds in order to help women who have already been shown to have lied and who certainly cannot help her? The only answer..ONLY.. is that she is lying also, and someone else promised her money if she said that Cain's help was more than just monetary and that she had an on-going affair. (yeah, right, like through the time that he was fighting and recovering from cancer???)
(2) How did this woman suddenly have a list of text messages ready and waiting to expose unless she had help from others to get this together and had been planning something so she could be paid by one of/some of Cain's enemies? And, how many other people has this woman hit up for money over the years? I am sure Cain is not the only one. Where is that list of those text messages, or the names of Other people that she turned to for money? With her record it is most likely that Cain is not the only one she tapped for funds. Is she going to claim affairs with all of them?
(3) And it is not important if he ever told his wife about helping this woman. I know plenty of business men and women who help others and do not discuss it with their spouses. Do you think Donald Trump tells his wife who he sends money to help? I doubt Cain felt it was anything but an act of kindness that he was doing and not some secret that he had to hide.
(4) If Cain, as he admitted, has been giving her money, (as I am sure others have)...how about someone getting the IRS to investigate her and her bank account. I expect this woman never reported any financial "gifts" as income. And I am sure the money given to here were not considered "loans." Wonder how much money she has begged for and received for which she never paid taxes? She has probably received money from the government, and if she has been getting any welfare or food stamps she must report any and all monetary gifts. This is a woman who should be investigated and made to pay back the government.
(6) Obviously she has not been too strapped for cash if she can afford a cell phone and send thousands of text messages. It is apparent this woman is a blood-sucking leech and a slanderer. Her ex-partner took her to court for slander, and won, proving that even the courts (and her family, by the way) have all declared that she is a liar.
I feel so sorry for Cain. He has been hurt by all these allegations and I do not believe he is an unfaithful husband or a man who has done anything these women claim. He might not have become the final candidate, but this campaign against him was engineered to ruin his life, not just his chance at the White House. There are far more people who know him who can attest to his morality, sincerity, kind heart, and decency. Only a few greedy, low-life women have tried to discredit him in a way that is de plorable and slanderous. But the media wants to control the outcome of all elections and so journalists tempt and encourage people to believe the liars rather than the true friends and co-workers and associates who know Cain's real character and qualities and who have defended him throughout all of these untrue stories.
Speaker after speaker being marched out to announce they are “standing with Cain”.
No way this guy is getting out of the race.
Just woke up. Does this live stream work on iPad?
I have a rule. Believe NOTHING you HEAR; and only about half of what you SEE.
I’ve HEARD tons from the media about Mr. Cain; I’ve seen NOTHING.
Anyone who wants to help the blacks get off the DEMOCRAT PLANTATION is a terrible threat to the Democrats; what is suspect is THIS IS THEIR STANDARD M.O.
Hmmmmm....Cain stays in.
