The latest allegation swirling around businessman Herman Cain that he conducted a 13-year long extramarital affair with a woman named Ginger White could well amount to a political death blow for his already-reeling presidential campaign. And thats bad news for former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney.
...Romneys best (only?) path to the nomination is if conservatives, who seem to have decided they wont be with him, fracture among several candidates rather than unify behind a single one.
That reality is true on the national level but equally true in early voting states like Iowa and South Carolina where Romney seems to have a solid 15 to 25 percent but hasnt moved much beyond that number.

It's over because Republicans let the media and press pick their candidate
Get use to it folks Obama will win in 2012
Baloney!
The Cain Train is moving along very nicely, in spite of the press and others trying their best to stop it!
For that matter, I’m not sure mittens can beat Gov. Perry.
Romney is not the lesser of two evils, HE IS THE BENEDICT ARNOLD OF 2012 !
um.. basil... you did see the article where Cain said he is reconsidering leaving the race right?
Cain probably wont even be in the race next week, it’s over :(
The ineligible RINO Romney:
"YOU, as the others, will bow down and serve me."
Believe the article implies that Romney needs Cain in the primary race to split conservatives - NOT as a VP running mate.
???????????????????????????????
Good summary of the article, it was torture to read...
Quite true.
I hope this is not the case
You will have two establishment candidates Gingrich and Romney. I'm sure the Beltway Boys are happy.
The media and press have a lot more crap on these two guys than they ever did on Cain
Yes Gingrich could win a debate with Obama, but is unelectable. Gingrich does not appeal to independents.
As for flipping, it depends in what direction. It is fine with me, if it is toward a conservative position.
Why is Romney ineligible? I despise the man, but he was born in the US, he is older than 35, has been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years and both his parents were US citizens at the time of his birth.
The CAIN train is still rolling. Apparently the latest dolly doo was a friend of the family. Some friend she was.
If the GOP elites want to leave conservatism and foist Romney upon the nation, then they left conservatism. I'm a conservative and won;t vote for Romney regardless of the level of corruption of the GOP.
I didn't vote for Bill Cinton then and I won't vote for Mitt Romney now, FOR THE EXACT SAME REASONS...Including dodging the draft.
Good golly! No, I didn’t see that one somehow—I’m shocked and saddened to hear it.
From a Cain Volunteer:
I was on a conference call at 11:15am this morning with Herman Cain himself, where he explained to us that, once again, the accusations against him are COMPLETELY FALSE. He ALSO explained that he is NOT considering dropping out of the campaign, despite what the media is reporting. The campaign is moving forward as planned. Additionally, he shared that Ginger White WAS a friend of his (and his wife...’s) and she was a struggling unemployed single mom who received several eviction notices due to being unable to pay her rent. So being the good man that he is, Mr. Cain helped her out financially as a FRIEND, as he has done for other friends in the past. This is what you get for being a good person in this country. Isn’t that freakin’ great!?
Ginger White’s track record - she filed for bankruptcy, has had several eviction notices with the most recent one being this past month, she’s had lawsuits against her for stalking and for LIBEL, she accused a past employer of sexual harassment which was settled out of court, her EX stated he wouldn’t put it past her to make false accusations against anyone for money, her lawyer is a left-wing Democrat and an Obama supporter who has donated over 4k to his campaign, etc.
Does none of this matter to anyone!?
I personally have ZERO respect for ANYONE so narrow-minded that they’ll give ANY amount of consideration or credibility to ANY of these UNFOUNDED accusations. How can people be so easily led and influenced by the media?? Whatever happened to INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY? Do we not have minds of our own??
Honestly? All this does is make me support even more.
And is it just me?? Or does it seem absolutely INSANE that anyone would run for POTUS if they knew they had something THIS HUGE to hide!? I’d like to believe Cain is much smarter than that.
Instead of allowing this UNPROVEN crap to influence our support of Mr. Cain, maybe we should fight it with everything in our being with articles like the one below, which of course is not getting nearly the media attention as all the false accusations.

kidd, you know what? I don’t blame the democrats or the media for this last crazy bimbo. I blame the RINOs and the republican party as a whole for not backing Cain up against this crap. They’ve made it very clear they are complacent and gleeful to see a conservative candidate like Cain savaged in the media until he may be forced to drop out by virtue of destroying his family. All the RINO garbage out there at the very least should defend a fellow republican. They can’t even do that!
Any candidate that gets the endorsement of the RINO establishment should be boycotted to send a message to these pigs.
Exactly. The latest little tart loser was a friend of Mr.. and Mrs Cain and he helped her with her rent when she was a single unemployed mother.
People need to quit buying into these Clarence Thomas smear tactics.
