According to a statement from the Cain campaign, Cain will hold to the conference at the Scottsdale Plaza at 3 pm.

“I know what happened, and he knows what happened,” Bialek said on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight. “One of my whole objectives was to give him the opportunity to come forward, to redeem himself, say, ‘Hey, I’m sorry. I did this. It happened. And let’s move forward.’ And it is unfortunate. I’m very disappointed that he didn’t take the lead in this.”

She said in the interview that she was prepared for an expected media onslaught, but was more concerned about how it would affect her teenage son

“Media keeps talking about the number of fires the media themselves have set...lol. They want the whole meme going that ‘where there is smoke there is fire’. It’s all BS!”

Did you see the interview with the Politico idiot? When asked if he saw actual evidence (even if he was not allowed to publish) he evaded the question and gushingly jumped to how many Tweets the story got. He could not contain his excitement.

That’s the state of journalism today.

I agree, his delivery and responses are very credible.

If I were one of his handlers, I'd cut this news conference off within the next 5 minutes, max. No more.

Cain is doing a nice job here. Coming across as aggravated but keeping his cool.

Answering questions when he should, without sounding evasive. Refusing to answer questions that are designed to get him to say something controversial, such as the woman's financial motivations.

Very nicely done, so far.

Yeah ... in the last hour. How convenient.
I have a feeling the slimes reporter has a
different story that he ‘persuaded’ her to
spew. We’ll watch for their headline about
it, I’m sure.

Herman Cain backstage at the recent TeaCon with Amy Jacobson shortly after Cain’s alleged encounter with accuser Sharon Bialek.

“I recall Sharon was hell bent on going backstage at the TeaCon convention — where she cornered him,” said Jacobson.

“I was surprised to hear she claims she did not know Cain was going to be there. Cain was expected and was late.”
