Just as with Clintoon....I’m not as concerned about the affair, as I am the abject lying about it. Everyone makes mistakes—but it’s those who don’t come clean (c’mon, hundreds of texts, at all times of the day or night...and giving her money secretly? Yes, in a divorce court it would of been proven as an affair.) whom I really cannot trust.
Cain should quit lying about it. Of course now that he has issued all the denials....even if he told the truth now, people would know he’s a creep and a liar.
I’m with Stein here. If he only admitted to causing pain in his marriage, and told the MSM to shove it, passengers and bags of money would jump back ip on the train!
Cain’s opponents have committed adultery, allegedly, anyway. That fact cannot derail the train. He just can’t be lying to us. he can’t stand by “I didn’t have sexual relations with that woman.”. He needs to be honest yet discreet. He has a good chance again If If If he comes clean without sharing details, and spanks the media on their double standard re candidates. Where was this anal probing on Obama and Edwards?
Ya know......when you look at the divorce rate in the US at about 50%. When you consider the numbers are said to be even higher for those cheating on their spouses, what do people expect from a candidate?
Part of the problem for Cain is that he has no record in public office. If he had a public record he could run on, this may not have mattered so much.
Clinton wasn’t running for Pope, either, but he was (rightly) impeached. Either we stand for family values, or we don’t. If we don’t, evil not only wins, but runs rampant. I normally like Stein, but he’s dead wrong on this one. I can’t believe, let alone understand, how so many people who call themselves conservatives, are willing to give Cain a walk on this.
100 years ago a man would be fired from his job for being caught in adultery.
That’s because employers rightly discerned that a man who will cheat on his wife will cheat on his employer.
For many years I’ve wondered how I would confront the prospect of having to vote for a candidate who holds ostensibly solid conservative political views, but happens to have a sleazeball private life. And, that this would be the only option against a lunatic lib candidate. Luckily I’ve never had that situation arise to date.
Harkening back to how much it just repelled me to my very core when Clinton was sullying the Oval Office, I frankly just don’t think I could vote for someone with such a seedy background. I could overlook McCain’s wrecked first-marriage (who knows what really happened anyway), because after seven years of POW hell, the psychological ramifications of returning home and experiencing freedom again would probably make anyone wig out. So, I can certainly understand a few extenuating circumstances. But when it comes to Newt, for example... well, that’s a lunch I just can’t keep down. I can’t see myself lowing my whole sense of standards, morality, and decency to vote for someone I regard as so sleazy and without character. And I don’t really have any genuine hatred for the guy. I’ve certainly enjoyed him in the debates, if anything.
As for Cain, the jury’s still out. I’m still giving him a little benefit of doubt until we get a better picture of the situation. Especially since I know how we’ve now entered a realm in which Soros operatives can toss around a million bucks to buy an accuser to character-assassinate any conservative they wish.
Sorry ! He’s been accused by a wacko of being a bad man - no President for you ! Next !
