Report: Herman Cain Repeatedly Gave Ginger White Money Without Wife’s Consent

» 47 comments

In an interview with the New Hampshire Union Leader Thursday, Herman Cain revealed that he had repeatedly given money to Ginger White, the woman who recently came forward accusing Cain of having carried on an affair with her for over 13 years.

He says he had sent her financial help for “month-to-month bills and expenses” because she had sent him numerous texts indicating she was “economically troubled.” He added that he is a “soft-hearted person” and felt the need to help her out because he “had known her as a friend.”

Cain, who is still “reassessing” whether he will continue with his campaign, has plans to return to his wife in Atlanta on Friday. He has not seen his wife, Gloria, since Ms. White came forward with her allegations.

    Yeah there’s absolutely nothing about giving another woman money without telling your wife and you would be a fool to think otherwise. I’m sure the answer “hey honey I’m just a soft hearted sucker” is really going to mitigate this breach of trust by a lie of omission. I feel sorry for this man’s wife and if he had a shred of decency he would leave the race and dedicate himself to earning her trust and forgiveness.

    Cain is a soft-hearted person alright.

    What is “White” money and how is it different ?

  • Anonymous

    Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse. Looks like the end of the line for the Cain Train. Did he really think that all this wasn’t going to come back and bite him in the ass?

  • Anonymous

    This pretty much seals the deal…
    Mrs Cain not only didn’t know Herbie was giving Ginger money, she didn’t know about Herbie’s good friend at all…

    _________________________________________________________________
    “And, Cain said, his wife also didn’t know of what he called a friendship
    with White until she said publicly that she had a casual 13-year affair
    with Cain that ended about eight months ago.”
    _______________________________________________________________
    It might be understandable that Cain would help a friend financially for
    years, give her gifts, and text her 62 times, sometimes in the early
    morning, but there is absolutely no reason for his wife not to know
    about this “friend”.

    You teabaggers need to ask yourselves if you ever had or would have such a clandestine “friend”
    The answer of course is no, unless there was hanky-panky going on.

    You’re right. Please nominate him.

    You don’t think there’s anything suspicious about this? I’m no betting man, but I’d wager a semester’s worth of Top Ramen that this whole debacle will end with Cain losing both the nomination and a wife.

    If I were defending Herman, I would argue that when he met Ginger White 13 years ago, he believed that she was a threat to national security and that he has, with the consent of the FBI and the CIA, following her wherever she goes in order to insure that she is not a terrorist!

  • Anonymous

    Herman needs to go on the offensive!  Instead of just issuing blanket denials, he should claim that he was the CEO of the NRA and therefore had to train the NRA members how to increase security at their restaurants.  In order to protect restaurant patrons from possible female terrorists, he believed that the best way to do so was to reach under the dresses of all the beautiful patrons and stroke their thighs and panties in a search for concealed weapons and bombs!  He should argue that the receipt of only a handful of complaints from women who claim they were harassed, is proof positive that everybody else knew exactly what he was trying to teach them

    It must have been Confederate money left over from the civil war.  Since it is worthless, Herman may be more clever than we give him credit for.

    Do you think Ginger ever bit him in the ass during sex?

    Overstepping moral boundaries under the pretense of security? That would never work. The American people are far too intelligent to fall for such an obvious ploy.

    The funny part is when this scandal first broke months ago Herbert went home to meet his wife, which they both talked about on national TV.

    Like any wife during that meeting I’m sure she asked, “Herman, are you hiding anything from me?”

    To which he relied, “No, honey.  I swear it”.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

    where is Ginger with the text to validate her claim?  Seemed easy enough for Weiner’s gal pals once they came forward.  Most people never delete their texts, so certainly she’s got more than her word going for her.

  • Michelle

    Did you feel the same sympathy for Hillary and call for Bill to step down or are you a liberal hypocrite?  No need to answer, I think we all know.

  • Michelle

    Not cool, Herman.  You’ve got some splainin to do. 

    ps, I wonder if Cain’s wife will come out and claim this is all a vast left wing conspiracy.

    Cain / Palin 
    The perfect ticket in 2012!
    Cain loves white women, and Palin loves black men!

    You must have trouble with reading comprehension then.  I’ve said more than once that IF he’s guilty, then I condemn him.  Try to keep up!!

    So what do you think about Cain – what should he do?

  • Anonymous

    What more proof do you want?

    Most people don’t have pictures of them screwing their mistress and old people don’t really talk about what good head they got last night in their text messages.

    He had a kept woman who he hid from his wife.
    Do the math, idiot.

  • Michelle

    Personally, I think he needs to step aside at this point.  He’s becoming a distraction from the real goal, which needs to be to rid this country of Obama before he completely destroys it.

    She showed months of phone records that showed Cain’s private cell phone number calling many many times at various hours including 4am.

    A lot of politicians and aspiring politicians are just cheaters.

    He gave her more than just gifts and “money without his wife’s consent” lol!

    Hey is that borderline prostitution?

  • Michelle

    K, then I guess we can call Clinton a rapist, since there is plenty of evidence to back that up too. 

    ps, In all seriousness, how did you become the vile person that you are today?

    lol at your mantra “Clinton” for everything Cain related.

    That’s ok, people who know you knew you would NEVER condemn Cain because you have never conceded one point here since we have known you.

    I’ll say it again. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Cain and his wife had an open marriage in a “don’t ask, don’t tell” way. I think that happens more often than we think in marriages with money and position. 

  • Anonymous

    Bill and Hillary were in positions where divorce wasn’t really an option, which is still largely the case. He was the POTUS and she still had an aspiring political career . I really don’t think there is much passion left in the Clinton Marriage, it’s a marriage of necessity only. Once Cain drops out of the race there’s very little reason for the marriage to continue.

    you’re being logical and requiring consistent ethical standards regardless of politics.

    Cain’s camp formally requests Ginger White’s full texts and phone record for last few months.  

    He’s certainly not acting like someone trying to hide something, but either way, Ginger should be releasing everything soon enough and voters can decide. The dragging out is to distracting and if he’s trying to cover it up, that should be out now too.   http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/herman-cain-camp-targets-cell-phone-records-affair/story?id=15064405#.TtjWFmMk630

    either way, the texts will be interesting when revealed, AND if Ginger’s smart, she’ll sell the ‘exclusive’ rights to someone and make a little money for it all.

    What is Herman’s favorite position? (LOL).

  • Anonymous

    Not to be picky, but Michelle Obama spells her name with two L’s.  Michele Bachmann spells her name with one L.  Since they look so much alike and share identical political philosphies, the spelling of their names is the only way to tell them apart!

    Best story for Saturday morning shows would be that Herman Cain “went home to Gloria”, only to find that she had packed up his things and sent them to storage, and that she was filing for divorce after 43 years. I’m sure Herman’s sons would support her. Gloria, it is time to wake up to the realities of life, and ackowledge that you have been cuckolded by your philandering husband. End of story.
