MANCHESTER - Herman Cain acknowledged Thursday that he repeatedly gave Ginger White money to help her with "month-to-month bills and expenses" without telling his wife of more than 40 years.
In fact, the embattled presidential candidate said, his wife, Gloria, "did not know that we were friends until she (White) came out with this story" alleging that the two had a 13-year extramarital affair.

Cain also stated clearly for the first time that as a result of the constant controversy he has been facing, he is considering getting out of the presidential race.
Asked whether leaving the race is one of the options he is currently assessing, Cain said, “Yes, it is an option.” Regarding his decision, he said, "You will know by next week" as he takes the weekend to reassess where he stands in the campaign.

More knee jerking. Has anyone bothered asking Mrs. Cain if she gives a flying fig?
Thus her vote for the other man, Obama.
Ah crap...
Oh my. That is bad news in all sorts of ways. I am saddened. Seems like the smear merchants just might have finished him off. Being generous isn’t his crime. Leaving the appearance of sleaze in his wake is all I can find wrong here. But it’s probably enough. I DO hope I am wrong. We’ll just wait and see. Now there isn’t anyone I like left standing.
I don’t understand why he keeps jumping back and forth between “no way I’m quitting” and “I am considering quitting”. Half the threads here, if you posted this quote from Cain and called it your own, you’d be called a RINO racist and told you were an idiot for not reading the article.
At least I now have the answer to a question I asked yesterday that nobody could answer — Cain’s wife did NOT know White.
And, like a person who likes to bash anyone who isn’t your candidate, he also said he has talked to Gloria. She knows, she understands and she forgives. So, what is the big deal?
He’s toast. If he admits to paying a woman who is not a family member several times what can we assume he was getting in return for those payments? Housekeeping?
And wifey didn’t know?
If he did nothing wrong, it sure as hell doesn’t look that way.
Uh oh.

Wow newb, could you be more obvious for whatever candidate you’re pimping for?
A married mad for years was helping a female pay her month to month bills.
What ever you want to call that, good isn’t one of them.

What candidate would that be, genius? I WILL crawl over crushed glass to vote for jive man if he’s the repub pick. ANYBODY is better than the kenyan. That doesn’t change what jive man is.
Cain said he’s going to meet his wife tomorrow to discuss the situation and tells us that he will let us know by next week what his plans are. What does that tells you? Any spouse that gives money to another opposite sex without the other knowing for years is in deep dodo
