BREAKING!! Aide: Herman Cain will stay in the race
The State Column ^ | Nov 29, 2011 | Staff

Posted on 11/29/2011 3:06:48 PM PST by Jim Robinson

After reports surfaced Tuesday morning that pizza magnate Herman Cain is reassessing his 2012 Republican presidential nomination bid, POLITICO obtained a statement from a Cain campaign spokesman regarding his candidates’ consideration of dropping out of the race.

“Yes,” the campaign spokesman said Tuesday when asked whether Cain would “definitely” remain in the race.

The clarification comes after the National Review Online released statements that Cain made in a conference call with campaign aides Tuesday morning. During the call, Cain made the following statements, “We have to do an assessment as to whether or not this is going to create too much of a cloud, in some people’s minds, as to whether or not they would be able to support us going forth,” Cain said.

A lot of people have already moved on to Newt.

Speak for yourself n00b.

With Cain staying in, it may only help Romney by splitting the conservative vote.

So let me take a wild ass guess, you think Cain should quit, right?

Nothing thrown at anyone from the Chicago hired cheaters at Cain or any other consertive canidate is true.

The only way the POS Bozo can hope to win is to make up lies about the otherside.

I only dig deeper to support Cain!

FUBO

We would have all the same nonsense, maybe more, but we’d enjoy it much better as Palin knocks their socks off! And fighter that she is, she’d enjoy it too, but unfortunately, her family might not.

Proof of your allegation? You are becoming a real Newdnik acting like a vulture for Newtie.

Newt is the third worst candidate next to Loony Paul and Obama Supporter Huntsman, Johnson wants to go third party so he does not count.

Yo ken5050—Have you taken a look at his fundraising totals?
What’s more, I’m gonna send him even more money.

Ya’ll have to come up with something you can prove before I give up on the man. Oh, I know. Next you’ll trot out another bimbo who’ll swear the most current one told her Cain was “keeping” her. Still hearsay. Oh, I know, next you’ll trot out some grainy footage of some shadows moving and claim it is the definitive proof of Cain’s alleged philandering.

You’re all beyond sick. You’re simply perversely evil.

Thank you for posting this, Jim.

Cain will weather the storm, and prove that these Soros-funded bimbos are liars.

His fundraising has most likely all but dried up. His campaign will starve for a lack of $$$

That's funny.

I just sent him another $1000.

The enemy of my enemy is my candidate.

The friend of your enemy is evidently your candidate.

I think it's his best quality. I love the way he puts idiots in their place.

I think he needs to read Washington's rules of civility.

A Man ought not to value himself of his Atchievements, or rare Qualities of wit; much less of his riches Virtue or Kindred.

If the accusations against Herman are true, he is a scumbag.

But when I look at the accusers, and their accusations, everyone one of them raises eyebrows related to motive or seedy background, and unsubstantiated claims.

In my heart of hearts I believe this is an orchestration of the Romney Sleaze Machine. (Along those same lines, why has Ms. Tea Party...Michelle Bachmann...NEVER ONCE slammed Mitt Romney on his liberal record? I believe she is on his payroll to disrupt and derail his competition).

Feeling that Herman is innocent, I am incensed that they are destroying this good man. And I do believe his campaign is toast because of this sliming of his character.

No matter how much we may want to defeat the character assassins I believe they have succeeded.

You’re not. I think a lot of us are just plain fed up with this BS. Have sent him money and am sending more as I can. If everyone sends $10 every week or so he’ll have plenty of money. Most importantly, he will be beholden to no one but the people.

My first thought when seeing the headline was that I expect the Cain detractors will now try to make an issue of the fact that Herman has aides.

LOL!!!

but I will definitely send him something if he stays in the race.

He needs your support now more than ever. I would but I already have twice and can't afford to again for awhile.

Who was the guy that left the White House and went to Chicago to set up for Obama's 2012 campaign? Not Rahm, the other one. It seems to me that the bimbo eruptions began shortly thereafter.

Cain - even on his worst day - sends the message we need to send. That alone narrows down the candidates considerably.

He is still my candidate. Fighting for Cain is fighting Romney, IMHO..

I can’t imagine what it must be like to experience this kind of attack.
