While Cain’s speech wasn’t aired on any of the networks, it was streamed live on the Tea Party Express’s website.

“The American voters are saying ‘we ain’t stupid.’ They know it was well timed and planned, and people are waking up to the dirty side of politics,” Cain continued. “They hadn’t awaked totally to the dirty, negative side of politics when I was first attacked, but I happen to believe that people are waking up.”

“I think Stephen Colbert’s endorsement of me is a marvelous thing,” Cain added. “Keep the youth vote inspired! Keep the college vote inspired! I asked Stephen to do some rallies he said I have 160 shows to do, so. We might do some on a selective basis.”
