Herman Cain to Endorse Newt Gingrich For President After Suspending Campaign
The Daily Mail ^ | 12-4-2011 | Staff - AP

Posted on 12/04/2011 9:04:07 PM PST by TitansAFC

With the Republican field’s first major test just weeks away, the failed presidential bid of Herman Cain is throwing his support behind the current frontrunner.

Sources told Fox 5 Atlanta that Herman Cain will endorse the presidential bid of Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Several sexual harassment allegations and a claim of a long-term affair left the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO’s White House bid all but destroyed.

It made sense to me that he’d support Newt. He realllllly did not like Perry. :)

The Handlers of Newt, Cain, Perry and Romney are brilliant..
Herding the republicans like sheep..

The also lead away from Bachmann, Paul and the other guy..
The sheep don’t see it..

And the primarys get nearer Newt will say even more of what you want to hear..

The truth is..... Bachmann is the ONLY conservative..
The rest is just Kabuki Theater.. posturing and strange noises..
Costumes, makeup, and masks..

Now if Herman Cain is the running mate...

He just might be,they aren’t that much apart on most issues,
took a sort of test/quis here on freepers a couple of weeks ago who would be the perfect potus acording to how I would solve problems, and Newt 86% and Herman 78% the others lower
but what do I know, so far in my seven decades, my advise goes mostly unheeded LOL

Yes. It is now being reported by Fox, The Daily Mail, Politico, Business Insider, the Right Scoop, The Washington Times, NBC, et al.

Hello Nana!

That thought is interesting. If it occurred the left would surely continue it attacks on Cain. Considering the amount of baggage Gingrich has I would think he would not want to add Cain's to the ticket.

Newt Gingrich = John McCain without the military service, but with a bigger gut, more hair and more wives.

It’s going to be fun watching the Perrybots try to rebuild all the bridges they’ve burned. You reap what you sow. Same with Paul supporters they are so obnoxious it doesn’t matter if you agree with Paul on something you completely turn the guy off because of those who follow him.

I’m leaning Paul. I know he has foreign policy issues, but the Economy is more important to me. We are for all practical purposes bankrupt. We have to change our tax system and cut real spending or face catastrophe.

A pro-amnesty RINO is a pro-amnesty RINO.

No thanks.

it sure makes sense to me that Herman Cain would endorse the man who’s treated him respectfully all along and that man is Newt Gingrich.

No one should be surprised as they've both cheered each other on as we saw and continue to see. However it's being reported Cain says there will be no endorsement on Monday of any candidate......tsk tsk..me thinks this might be disinformation from our guys....making the democrates squirm.

Yep. I tried to give Perry an honest look for a long time. But after seeing not one single Perry supporter who could behave in a civil manner, I gave up on Perry. If Perry draws that kind of despicable person to his campaign, I don’t want anything to do with Perry.

Is this true?

There seem to be two posts alleging the Cain endorsement, but both are based on a twitter post from an "unnamed source" to Fox Atlanta.

Pretty shaky journalism, if not outright fabrication. I'll wait for the official announcement.

Ok south...we got it ....you “like” another candidate ...then we can expect you’ll be taking your talking points to your candidates threads in the future?

If the Savior himself endorsed Gingrich/Romney 2012 I would risk Hell and still not vote for these RINOs. I have compromised my principles way too many times with the GOP. I thought the GOP was coming around in 2010. Well ... I was fooled yet again.

No more.
