He’s doing great.

Paraphrasing: Some people don’t want to see Herman Cain get the Republican nomination and some don’t want Herman Cain to win the presidency.

LOL - I noticed that. What’s with that? Weird.

Cain is awesome!

[penelopesire]

Media keeps talking about the number of fires the media themselves have set...lol. They want the whole meme going that ‘where there is smoke there is fire’. It’s all BS!

[ColdOne]

I agree so far he has done good.

[Thane_Banquo]

He used the S word: "Slander." I think it's a veiled legal threat.

[Deo volente]

“The machine to keep a businessman out of the White House is going to be relentless.”

BINGO!

[Political Junkie Too]

Ugh...

I hope he doesn't fall into the "Bob Dole says..." habit of referring himself in the third person.

BTW, his opening line "I'm Herman Cain. I'm a candidate for President of the United States" was right out of the movie The American President.

I have a feeling his donations will go up again tonight.

They almost sound timid (except to the LA airhead).

[katykelly]

Yes , but Cain is making the press look really stupid .

[Hoodat]

It’s not the credibility of the allegations, but the damage done by the allegations themselves.

The only damage being done here is by those who are saying that Cain is toast because of false allegations brought against him. I will continue to support him based upon integrity. It is a shame that you choose instead to allow the liars to dissuade you from supporting truth.

[Raebie]

Wow. Great answer to the Romney question.

[goodnesswins]

Yes...he is doing great. Seems forthright.

[dragnet2]

Yep, he’s coming off as credible, legitimate and honest, all delivered with a calm demeanor.

[CounterCounterCulture]

I haven’t endorsed a candidate, but I could get used to listening to Herman Cain press conferences for the next eight years or so, compared to the current occupier of the White House whom I cannot stand to listen to.

[penelopesire]

Media asking if it’s a ‘conspiracy’..Cain should tell the media that it is their DAMN JOB TO FERRET OUT THE TRUTH!!

[EDINVA]

I heard 3 Qs before the local station went back to Hannity. The woman reporter’s question was stupid. The lie detector question and the one about the Treasury Dept spokesperson whose name (Karen Something??) were all right. Good for him for calling this presser and taking them head on.

There is nothing I despise more than seeing attempts to destroy a person’s reputation. When it comes down to it, that’s all we have to work with. And these women who self-define sexual harassment to be what they want it to be make me sick.

[Raebie]

God, he’s knocking it out of the park here.

[Political Junkie Too]

The MSM is trying to trap Cain into commenting on the motives of the woman.
