Herman Cain Will Decide Whether or Not to Drop Out Next Week

Posted by on Wed, Nov 30, 2011 at 3:25 PM

Fox News says Cain is openly flirting with quitting the Republican campaign. This is probably not the first time Cain has openly flirted with something:

"I can only conjecture that maybe I am the Democrats' worst nightmare if I win the nomination," Cain said, later suggesting that some Democrats may want former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to win the nomination so they can go after his personal life.

Cain said he expects to make a decision within "several days," after consulting first his family and then taking the pulse of his supporters and donors.

"A week from now, I will have made a final decision," he said.

Man! I hope he gets someone good to write his campaign memoir when he drops out.

"I'm dropping out, you guys, I think it would just be way too unfair how hard I would win if I got the nomination."

He flatters himself. I have far scarier nightmares than this sad never-was.

From an article on CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/30/politics/c…)

"Cain, who is dropping in Republican presidential horserace polls, urged his audience to 'know the facts' and 'stay informed because ... stupid people are running America.'"

He's also called this most recent accuser "troubled." Which she actually responds to in this article. I'm glad someone did. What a dick to put that label on every person who's come forward.

It reads like a freshman intern wrote it.

I wish he would stay and get the nomination. It would be the most enjoyable presidential contest ever. The ONLY enjoyable presidential contest ever.

Yeah, I think it'd be every liberal's wet dream to see this assclown get the nomination. I would pay good money to see that first Presidential debate against Obama. Even Rick Perry would be shaking his head.
