Cain Vows to Remain in GOP Race

HeadlineDec 01, 2011

Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain is vowing to stay in the race despite the latest claims of a Georgia woman who says the two had a lengthy extra-marital affair. The woman, Ginger White, says she came forward as a show of support to the three women who have accused Cain of sexual harassment, two of them publicly. To support her claims of an affair, White has produced telephone records showing multiple calls and text messages from Cain. Speaking in New Hampshire on Wednesday, Cain brushed off speculation he is considering dropping out of the race.

Herman Cain: “It ain’t over 'til it's over. A few of our warm-weather supporters have, you know, gotten off the Cain train, but the good news is many of our solid supporters are still on. And once we clear up this most recent accusation, I think a lot of people are going to see it for what it was worth. And then, once we do that, I’m still going to work hard to do well here in the great state of New Hampshire.”
