I just think that if this is true Cain should have talked about his run for the Presidency with his family, and made a clear decision to not run, or to fight as hard as possible to win the nomination regardless of the vicious racist attacks that were obviously coming. You have that talk before you run, not several months into your campaign. You know being a black Republican you're going to get it literally as bad as is possible, considering you're not only seen as a threat in one race, but to an entire demographic that democrats depend on to win elections. Cain said he was ready for the expected “high-tech” lynching that was to come.
It's also at the point that while Cain may delay the investigations, it's going to come out if he did anything which I am doubting based on the fact it hasn't already come out. All this would do is delay things a little. He's not even going back to live a more private life, but is going to be very vocal, and in the public eye. I don't know what's going on, but I honestly couldn't care less about his personal life, because it's political issues he would be affecting my life with if President.
Everyone knows how disgusting, and vicious liberals are when they have a high level office being threatened by a person who is not only a threat in one election, but is a threat to a demographic they depend on for survival. As sickening as the attacks against Cain was, it didn't surprise most of us, including Cain who said he was ready for a high-tech lynching. He should have come out guns blazing, and let these idiots who were questioning his "authentic blackness", have it, including that white foreign guy who's name I forget who is one of the most ignorant liberals on TV. He had the time to get aggressive, and go at these people taking it to them like Conservatives wanted to see. He could have gotten his message out there on the issues he's closer to the people than any other candidate, such as illegal immigration among others. I think he was told to play it safe when surged in the polls which was a bad idea considering his unconventional comments are what gave him that surge. It just seems he was still in the race, and it just made little since for him to drop out right now. I had a friend, who was a hardcore Cain supporter tell me he saw the way Cain dropped out as an admission of guilt to some of the accusations against him, or that he say more coming out again him, or that he just completely, and cowardly caved to the stress of liberal attacks. That doesn't sound like Cain to me, but I didn't have any argument against it either. This friend was also one of a couple of people I know who were ready to donate to Cain's campaign after he announced he was staying in it for the long haul, or dropping out. I think it's pretty clear that when you hint that you may be dropping out it's going to cause your campaign contributions to drop dramatically. They didn't want to donate a lot of cast only to have him drop out the next day, which is exactly what would have happened.
