Video of Cain at Campaign Stop in South Carolina on Friday, talking about tomorrow's announcement

"Tomorrow, in Atlanta, I will be making an announcement. But nobody's going to get me to make that prematurely. So tomorrow, we will be opening our headquarters in northwest Georgia, where we will also clarify exactly what the next steps are."

There is no doubt I am a cynic...but it could well be that Mr. Cain is buying a few days time to determine what impact all this is having on his campaign. “Opening his headquarters”, filing for the distant primary in a state and sending out a campaign donation solicition e-mail.

If he has any type of positive response I think he’ll stay in or “suspend” his campaign.

Negative response...he has already laid the ground work (wife, family) to gracefully bow out.

Signed,

Berdie, The Cynic

No accreditation necessary Cam- just remember when all seemed hopeless, I was there to cheer you up. -:)

If Mr. Cain stays in- (and I think he will, unless his big money people dry up)— he’ll be stronger than before.

Donors may want a staff change to keep giving.

Rielle Hunter announced this morning that her child was fathered by Cain.

Biden off the ticket. Edwards on.

I once gave my entire paycheck to somebody, because they needed it more than I did at the time.

I’m not married, but that’s beside the point.

Context matters, like how much and how often.

Gloria White’s lesbian lover said that Gloria didn’t mention Cain at all during that time period.

Thanks for the info, I know the St Pete Times is a left wing fish wrapper. The Miami Herald seems to continue on the downward spiral.

Hard to fathom Cain using the words “we will be opening our headquarters” if the announcement is going to be that he is dropping out

I watched Cain make that statement on the news earlier today, and I couldent se how that would make anybody think he was quitting, however, the commentator thought he was quitting, we will see tomorrow

So thank you very much. And I’ll credit you next time I use it. :-)

Apologies for being too lazy to look it up and credit you. :-)

Oh Lordy. Good catch.

And to Mrs. Cain: I AM SOOOOO SORRY!!!

Let me put on my best Perry impersonation:

“..... Ooops.”

I love all these “Christians” who ignore the plain message of Jesus concerning forgiveness.

These are your words

You are a friggin hypocrite, Newt is a skank when it comes to women, but yet, you whine about Cain giving someone money who makes false allegations about an affair.

Hellooo. He is a Baptist preacher you ever think that maybe the money he gave was not his but the Lords(TITHES).

Not saying it is or it isn't. Question then if it is the Lords money what does he supposed to do with it?

Deu 15:19
And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.

So then what is a Levite.

Numbers 18:6
And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.

So then it this was the Lords money he is doing Exactly what he supposed to do. Help the needy.

Ministers are asked for hand outs all the time. I have seen my pastor give his own money away many times.

Berdie,

That’s not cynical- that’s what’s happening. When this story broke, he now understood full well that MSM/Daley Machine was going to constantly be after him- it wasn’t going to stop- ever.

So, he’s deciding whether he can devise a way to effectively counter them.

If he can’t, he has to quit. But, if he can, he takes on “Clintonian” proportions to the conservatives (not talking sex!).

I mean the Dems loved Clinton because he always spanked the Pubs...each and every time. They couldn’t beat him even when they had him cornered. Think of it- this guy launched missiles into the Middle East just to get Lewinski off the front page when she was testifyng before the Grand Jury.
He refused to lose.

If Cain comes out and says I am not going to be like all other Pubs who run like scared rabbits every time the Dem Machine tightens the screws-— he will be a hero to conservatives.

And finally, if he does, that’s why he deserves to be President. He may be lacking in many things— but this steel backbone would demonstrate exactly why he became as successful as he is-—

Now, all he has to do is stay in it. -:)

Why would he hide that from his wife?

Wouldn’t they be praying over it together?
