After reports surfaced Tuesday morning that pizza magnate Herman Cain is reassessing his 2012 Republican presidential nomination bid, POLITICO obtained a statement from a Cain campaign spokesman regarding his candidates consideration of dropping out of the race.
Yes, the campaign spokesman said Tuesday when asked whether Cain would definitely remain in the race.
The clarification comes after the National Review Online released statements that Cain made in a conference call with campaign aides Tuesday morning. During the call, Cain made the following statements, We have to do an assessment as to whether or not this is going to create too much of a cloud, in some peoples minds, as to whether or not they would be able to support us going forth, Cain said.

Mr. Robinson you have just made my day!!!!! The only thing that would
make me happier right now is if you would become a congress critter
for CA.
I don't know. Herman's got one of the sharpest lawyers in the business watching his back on that front. Fox probably didn't want to chance that they'd have their pants sued off by Cain for publishing his private communications. Dicey territory.
The woman's lawyer could have also refused Fox access to the contents of those texts, but who knows - there's probably nothing juicy in there, which is another reason for not releasing them. It would blow the lady's story to shreds.
I'll bet that Cain's lawyer has already looked over the texts on his phone.
However, if they have texts that Cain says: Had a Hot time in Hotlanta with you. Cant wait to do it again!, then thats probably pretty damaging to him. However, I dont know if these kind of texts exists because if they did, we would have seen them by now.
I dont want the MSM to tramp on Cains privacy. I want the truth to come out.
Fair enough. I've reached the same conclusions myself.
It’s all good. Any of the 8 running in GOP will be 10 times better than what we have now in WH. This time though I am looking for a non-politician, businessman. Look, we had professional politicians in charge since Eisenhower left, and I do not like the results. Even the much admired Reagan, with many outstanding achievements to his credit, TRIPLED federal spending in his 8 years.
I think the fact that she was given so many eviction notices would likely attest Cain didn't help her all that much...which most men enjoying a woman's company in the way she has expressed would "keep" her in her home at least..especially over 13 years. Just a thought.
I understand your concerns about Cain..but look at the whole political picture for a minute...it makes perfect sense to keep Cain in the race even if you don’t support him...I’m in Newt’s court currently, but am glad Cain decided to continue...it’ keeps Obama shaking in his shoes he’ll be loosing a good part of his black voters...which is why they really want him out. Cains dividing the black vote...and Axelrod and Bo’s machine are livid about this.
Maybe I just don't think dog squat about the candidates that the leftist MSM is willing to give more than 15 minutes to.
Not so fast...Newt was exhonerated from those charges and clearly a set up. He was getting a raw deal and new it which is why he left before the investigations were completed and the real facts determined his innocence.
My hat’s off to you sir!
Did you happen to catch Ann Coulter on Hannity TV show today?
Ann has shilled for Romney and then Christy. However her defense of Cain today was outstanding based on the latest bimbo eruption.
No the train you are looking at is the Obama shovel ready jobs train.

They don't have to make the LDS 'look like'...the Mormons actual doctrines/rituals/and entire belief system put them in the catagory of a cult... as does their leadership. They simple slather the surface with Christian vocabulary to make it more palitable to the uninformed and unsuspecting....which many cults do. Bait and switch says it well.
Cain is proving again he is not a professional and slick politician. He has no practice dealing with trumped up and bogus charges. To me that is just fine. We need a leader, not a teflon slickster.
The turtle is on the post.
Ahead by(passing) a/the hare.
Newt didn’t defend Cain. Not at all.
All he said was he would never declare a campaign over given what people said about his.
Give him credit for not taking the CBS reportette’s bait as I’m sure she wanted him to say affairs should disqualify Cain and thus set his own trap.
Newt was wise but hardly was defending Cain in the least.
