I’d wager he trusted his friend to do the right thing. I know I’ve helped people in the past,

I helped my own ex-wife out several times. I didn't hide it from who I was dating at the time. I would never hide such a thing from my wife.

Like I said, it was stupid on Cain's part to not clear everything with his wife before getting into the race. It showed he had not thought through what he was getting into, even if the money he gave that woman was done without any underlying affair.

“Like I said, it was stupid on Cain’s part to not clear everything with his wife before getting into the race. It showed he had not thought through what he was getting into, even if the money he gave that woman was done without any underlying affair. “

I think he just trusted his friend. I have folks that are pretty tight, and I know I’d feel the same way if they backstabbed me.

I just don’t see why not telling his wife about something he did to help someone else is the same as cheating on your wife, twice, and then marrying your mistress both times. Cain’s been married 40 some years, and you don’t go that long without a serious commitment to her. Let’s look at the big picture here.

Now we don’t have Cain, and the conservatives who you are insisting must support Newt, are supporting Santorum. Is that really the outcome that we were hoping for? No.

So who really won here? Conservatives, or the Axelrod/Obama crew?
