People get paid to write this? hope the guy didn’t go “out on a limb” with this remark, “The two options he’s weighing are “continuing forward with the campaign, or suspending the campaign,” the first source said.” well..duh

Yeah that’s rich isn’t it? Breaking news he is either quitting or continuing.

Thanks Politico

Politico?

Um, he's dropping out. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Herman pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

So what will be you glib comment if he does suspend the campaign?

Newt has no chance in Hades of winning the general.

This is either mass suicide or the Establishment playing everyone like fiddles, or both.

I wish I could say it will pass df, but I’m not sure.

I expected this of the left, but the response form the right was eye opening to say the least.

I refuse to stand with a bunch of coward sissies.

And there is NO WAY in HELL I’m going to move from an inncoent man accused of adultery to a known adulterer, just ain’t gonna do it.

I don’t know... if he hangs in there, this could prove to be an instance of the media firing all its ammo too early. People forget pretty quickly, they say. 45 days is about how long it takes for a story to slip down the memory hole. If, like Perot, he pulls out because the heat’s too much, then... well... he’ll just be another candidate successfully Borked. I sure do get sick of it.

Typical politico reporting, Cain is going to stay in the race or Cain is going to suspend his campaign or Cain is going to exit the race...What a MONGO scoot, this should be on frontpage...

Why don’t they just post their childish tweets and paste a bunch of the twits together and print, would be better than this pile of dung...

No, he doesn’t, and I’m utterly disgusted with so called conservatives at this point.

I may well be at the point of rooting for their defeat.

God help me.

Really? You’d quit that easily? You must not have kids. Keep the faith and keep fighting. More importantly work to keep the House and capture the Senate. Holding those two for a generation will set us back on track, even with a RINO in the WH.

I feel a bit angry at how they have treated him.

I bet Cain announces tomorrow that his wife “strongly supports” him and he will stay in the race to help regain his reputation.

Politico strikes with those absurd unnamed sources again!

They will do ANYTHING to try and get this man to lose support.

Does anyone recall how they were trying this crap with Sarah Palin and some basketball player?

Anyone?

Sweet Lord Jesus, I am amazed at the way Republicans are led by the nose by their enemies to discard the people who are on their side and fooled into embracing the snakes in the grass!

At this point, I'm on the train, we'll see how far it goes.

That cartoon is perfect.

But the MSM can’t butcher anybody without the consent of the “conservatives”. That is who is really on trial in all this. This is about whether we are gonna let the media and Axelrod’s Chicago choose our candidate. If so, we may as well roll over and die. Sort of like if those turkeys each caught the other one and put him on the chopping block until they’re all dead.
