I'm sure he'll mention that those allegations are not important, and that the important issues involve getting americans back to work and the 999 plan

Dear Goodness, Evenstar...I've mis-judged you! So you defend this dispicable woman? Wow!

Then I'm happily misjudged. As the quote I copied notes, Mr. Cain could have put this matter to rest by simply being honest; that's proven to be most difficult for him as his story changes constantly. What's despicable is that Cain is emerging as a serial sexual harasser, and the GOP seems fine with that. It isn't fine; it occurs too often and is grossly underreported...because women don't want to have to deal with attacks such as these.

Well I guess he definitely wont be bowing out as there is a Cain 2012 board on the podium. Im anxious to hear what he has to say but I believe its going to be beating around the bush and just embarrassing.

Possible transcript to today's Cain Speech, paraphrased from the infamous Slick Willy statement:

But I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again: I did not sexually harass that woman, Miss Bialek. . These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work on my campaign. Thank you.

The irony is that the same media types calling for Cain to step aside, were nearly silent when it was Clinton....
The media was NEARLY SILENT during the Clinton/Jones/Lewinski affair??? That resulted in the second impeachment of a US president???

Seems to me, I remember that it received pretty extensive coverage .

Heh.

Well, he did deny being aware of any settlements with accusers in the 1990s, then later that same day admitted that he was aware of agreements. Not settlements, agreements. Agreements to settle employment with nice going away pre$ent$. But not settlements!

That left me wondering if he'd been on the phone to Clinton asking for advice...

It was covered minute by minute! If all four of the women who've accused Cain have a press conference, nothing that Cain can say or do will resurrect his campaign.
