Herman Cain has not talked to his wife about the re-education camps

Much more interesting...

Is she in the kitchen making pizza?
 
2011-12-01 12:31:21 PM
Still in the dog house.

I don't think his wife exists. She's like that out of country girlfriend that pathological liars always seem to date.

This guy has a lot in common with Clinton.
 
2011-12-01 12:33:34 PM
Maybe Cain should send his wife a couple of texts or something.

Cain only talks to women if he can sexually harass them.
 
2011-12-01 12:34:14 PM
Cain's wife: "I didn't hear that"
 
2011-12-01 12:35:01 PM
Why would Herman Cain "talk" to a woman? That's not what they're for.

She is nothing like Lisa dude. Lisa is totally real you would love her. Smart pretty, loves to collect toys just like me, we have so much in common and have the sex all the time. I can't wait until she visit from Canada.

I don't know how to break this to you dude, I am in Canada... and I'm with Lisa right now. We're nude and taking collectible action figures out of their original packaging... she says "Hi". ;)

That's stupid. I'm not a Cain fan but how is this news? He said he's going to talk to his wife about it on Friday so Thursday's story is that he still hasn't talked to his wife? The ACC championship is Saturday. Is it going to be news on Friday that they still haven't played the ACC championship?
 
2011-12-01 12:56:47 PM
So how long do you think it will be before they get a divorce?
I bet there's no pre-nup. What's the over under on the percentage she gets? I have 80%.

Rann Xerox: Maybe Cain should send his wife a couple of texts or something at 4:26 AM.

Yeah, that didn't look suspicious at all. He has enough money; he should've been smart enough to pay her off before the campaign, instead of just dumping her and thinking it would come back to haunt him.

/Then again, so many of his political ideas prove that he's not a smart man.
 
2011-12-01 01:04:40 PM
hey, if you use Fundie logic, Cain isn't doing anything wrong here

Does anyone know if he called her on 9/9/09?

Ya, it is perfectly reasonable that he would wait at least a week to talk to his wife about an affair he had for 13 years. I'm sure his wife is just fine with that. I mean seriously, after 13 years, what difference is a week or two more going to make.
 
2011-12-01 01:12:00 PM
I suspect he'll use the Chris Rock Strategem.

"Nope, wasn't me."
 
2011-12-01 01:16:19 PM
I wonder if the first thing she says to him will be, "That doesn't even sound like something you'd do." You know, like what she said to him after the sexual harassment allegations came out.

Mercutio74: I wonder if the first thing she says to him will be, "That doesn't even sound like something you'd do." You know, like what she said to him after the sexual harassment allegations came out.

And he can say, "Honey, just think about all the millions of women I haven't been having an affair with for 13 years."

Non-story. Over-zealous staff.

His Disco theme song (new window) is still the best one out there.

No, she makes the sammiches

It's entirely possible Gloria has known about this for years but just likes being rich. He's not beating her? He's not abusing the kids? Why shouldn't she and her children have the best of everything?

Cain is a snake oil salesman who should not and will not get anywhere near the presidency but I suspect the only conversation he needs to have with his wife concerns preserving their post-campaign income and social standing.

Kind of fun watching him humiliate the party.

Irving Maimway: His Disco theme song (new window) is still the best one out there.

That can't be for real. Tell me that's not for real. Seriously. Is that real?

If it is real then it truly needs the addition of Solid Gold dancers and/or Marylin McCoo.

Reasonable is what they decide it to be for their relationship. That's not the point. The point is he said he was going to talk to her on Friday so Thursday's news story is that he still hasn't talked to her. West Virgina is playing South Florida tonight at 8:00 pm so here's a 1:45 pm newsflash for you, they haven't played that game yet.

Except for the whole "has no actual solutions to any of the country's problems, doesn't understand foreign or domestic policy, can't handle the media, and is generally pants on head retarded" thing.

Other than that, they're practically twins.

YOU WHHHOOOOOOOOORE
They lose all of their value when you remove the original packaging I mean you might as well throw them away now.
But could you maybe be me a favor and don't tell Lisa that I was telling people she was my girlfriend again. Last time she caught me doing that she wouldn't raid with me on WOW for like 2 months. Women huh?
 
2011-12-01 02:51:25 PM
Maybe, but I'm gonna guess his wife has talked to him a little. This campaign is going to destroy his personal life.
 
2011-12-01 04:43:05 PM
NoGods: The point is he said he was going to talk to her on Friday so Thursday's news story is that he still hasn't talked to her.

The point is: News of his affair broke on Monday, but, he won't reassess with his wife until tomorrow. I will "walk through this" with Gloria, Cain said, "I will do that when I get back home on Friday."

He had to know this would be a big issue when he held the press conference on Monday.

The sad part is, he seems to believe that the way he's flailing about on these accusations is a sign of strength:

"We are going through a reassessment-that's what you do as a business person-you go through a reassessment," Cain said in Manchester. "If you have a business and it hits a bump in the road, you reassess, you re-evaluate. We are reevaluating the impact on my family-and that's No. 1, folks."

Link (new window)

He had to know all this stuff would come up. Hell, he blamed the initial leaks on the Perry campaign, because he discussed the allegations with someone who worked on a previous campaign, and that person ended up working for Perry.

After he withdraws from the race Mrs. Cain moves out, contacts literary agent, starts writing "The Cain Mutiny, Why Herman is Queeg without the Balls."

Affair or not, that man treats his wife like dirt. How many real people would go on a job interview while their house was on fire? "Sorry hon, this is important. I'll talk atcha later."
