All-purpose Herman Cain fun thread

    Embattled presidential candidate Herman Cain is inviting his top supporters and donors to Atlanta on Saturday for a meeting in which he will give them advance word of whether he intends to continue his campaign, sources close to the campaign said Friday.

    One supporter who has been summoned to the private session said he believes that Cain is likely to announce he is ending his candidacy.


    Another who has been invited to the morning meeting says attendees have been told he has made no decision, but wanted to meet with some of the supporters to express his gratitude.

    Several sources indicated that Cain is likely to announce his plans publicly at a news conference after the meeting. Cain had already scheduled an event on Saturday — the grand opening of his national headquarters in his hometown of Atlanta, as well as the announcement of his campaign’s freshly minted senior leadership team for the state of Georgia.

    Because his wife didn't believe (or was able to compartmentalize) the harassment claims.

    The wife is not pleased that Herman's had a "friend" of 13 years, who he's been giving money to, that she never knew existed.

    Did we completely miss the fact that yesterday Cain announced the creation of a Women For Herman Cain website? I imagine the registration info includes: name, email, cell phone number, height and bra size.

    “Dear Mrs. Cain, Don’t pay attention to these pathetic husband-less women who are jealous of women like you in happy long-term marriages,” one supporter from California wrote. “These vindictive women can't find a husband or keep one.”

    The passages — which are posted by the campaign under a photo of several women giving the thumbs-up sign — unleash vitriol on White, the single mother of two who came forward this week to allege Cain is a two-timer.

    “It's pathetic and shameful women are so desperate for their five minutes of fame that they would position themselves against the greatest potential President Americans could be blessed enough to have,” wrote a fan from South Carolina.

    I want to know how the Herman Cain witchhunt is not racist but any criticism of our president is racism, pure and simple. This is an African-American being destroyed by the media and not one of the allegations has been proven. Cain is a buffoon and belongs nowhere near the White House, but the destruction of his life, and the glee shown by people like George Stephanopolis, is disgusting.

    Let us know when multiple accusations of womanizing come out against Obama. I am sure they have all been kept under cover so far because no media outlet in our nation would ever put out anything critical of Obama or even exaggerate or fabricate any charges against him. Nahhh, that would never happen.

    Cain's denials consist of the Bart Simpson defense.

    I forgot the part where someone held a gun to his head and told him to run for the highest office in the land.

    Apparently, and I'm not making this up, the women leaders of this pro-women organization today attacked the Cain accusers for being liars and ho-bags because they are not married.
