UPDATED @ 9:54 PM ET
While we continue to stand by the reports from a source inside the Cain Campaign, we thought it was important to post the recent email Friends of Herman Cain, Inc. sent out this evening:
Dear Patriots and Supporters,
As you probably heard yesterday, a troubled Atlanta business woman used national media outlets to promulgate a fabricated, unsubstantiated story about a 13 year affair with me. I am writing you today to assure you that this woman’s story is completely false.
I do know Ms. White. I have helped her financially at times over the past few years, just as I have helped many friends and acquaintances throughout the years. I thought Ms. White was a friend in need of a supportive hand to better her life.
Ms. White has made it apparent that she was abusing the friendship.
But now I am asking for your friendship. I am also asking for your prayers and support. This is a trying time for my family, my campaign, and for me. It is also a trying time for our country as we are all distracted from the truly important issues facing our nation.
This evening I have an important speaking engagement at Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, Michigan, where I will be outlining my foreign policy and national security plan. While recent events have taken a toll on me, the people in the audience this evening will not know it. I will deliver my message with vigor and enthusiasm.
Let me assure you, I am not deterred. America’s future is too important. We will continue on this journey to make America great once again.
Thank you and God bless.
Sincerely,
Herman Cain
We are also being told by sources in the Cain camp that Herman Cain will announce he is dropping out of the GOP Primary race Wednesday November 30, 2011 on Your World with Neil Cavuto. Regardless to whether Ms. White is troubled or not, Cain has allowed these claims to be made without even the slightest of fight. Cain’s campaign could have put the Gloria Allred/Sharon Bialek claims to rest by confronting them over the alleged details but Mr. Cain and his advisers chose to allow them to continue with their fabricated stories. Cain has hurt himself by responding to Ms. White’s claims with calling her a “troubled woman.”

We have sent Friends of Herman Cain communications director J.D. Gordon and Cain Attorney Lin Wood an email seeking comment. The same email was sent to General Counsel for Friends of Herman Cain, Inc. We have not yet received any response to our request for comment.
Mr. Gordon, Mr. Wood:
Please find we are contacting you to request a comment and clarification of Mr. Wood’s statement of November 28, 2011.
First: Did Mr. Wood intend to imply that the claims of Ms. White are truthful but because this is a relationship between two consenting adults it is not a matter the press has a right to know about?
Second: Will Mr. Cain withdraw from the GOP Primary race after the disclosure of Ms. White’s statements?
Finally, will Mr. Cain ever stand up and demand that all Candidates be held to the same standards and scrutiny?
We sent a second email seeking confirmation or denial of reports that Cain will drop out of the GOP race tomorrow (see below)
Gentlemen:
Please be advised that we have received information from a Cain Campaign employee that Mr. Cain plans to drop out of the GOP Presidential race tomorrow, Wednesday November 30, 2011.
Will you confirm or deny this report?
L. Lin Wood, Attorney for Herman Cain
Sources who have inside access to Herman Cain have informed us that Cain will drop out of the GOP Presidential Primary Race by tomorrow afternoon. Campaign source says decision based in part because of statement from Cain attorney Lin Wood yesterday when Wood (left) released the following in response to the claims by Ginger White that she and Herman Cain had a 13 year affair. Wood said:
This is not an accusation of harassment in the workplace – this is not an accusation of an assault – which are subject matters of legitimate inquiry to a political candidate.
Rather, this appears to be an accusation of private, alleged consensual conduct between adults – a subject matter which is not a proper subject of inquiry by the media or the public.
Many believe Wood’s statement to be an admission that Cain was involved in a consensual affair with Ms. White. What Mr. Wood fails to understand is that any candidate for President of the United States is subject to having his behavior examined by the media and the voters.
Attorney for Herman Cain Mr. L. Lin Wood sent the following response to our first email:
Mr.Sinclair,
I am happy to address your first inquiry since it arises out of my statement.
The answer is no. My statement was not intended to in any way suggest that there was any truth to Ms. White’s accusation of a 13-year long physical relationship with Mr. Cain. Mr. Cain has publicly denied this allegation and I believe Mr. Cain. My statement was intended to convey my strong belief that even public figures retain a zone of privacy with respect to personal matters and there are boundaries to media inquiries –an individual is not obligated to answer question after question about private matters. And that does not mean that the answers to such questions would reveal some salacious information or evidence some wrongdoing. I made clear in my statement that Ms. White’s accusation involved “alleged” consensual conduct between adults. That is descriptive of her accusation and does not in any way support the truth of the accusation.
I trust this answer your question. Thank you.

Unfortunately Mr. Cain was held to a standard that the media has refused to apply to Barack Obama. FOX News, CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, ABC should take note of Mr. Wood’s reply. After all FOX was the first news outlet to say Mr. Woods statement contradicted the one by Herman Cain and even came across as a semi admission
anyone here who would support Herman Cain at a brokered convention join us here: http://caintastic.wall.fm/index
trust me,no trolls allowed! thank you.
Hermann Cain is two faced dirt bag with his head shoved up the FED's a$$. He runs Godfather Pizza into the ground. It depreciates in value from 300 to 30 million and then Pillsbury sells it to him for 30 million. He was a friend of Lawrence King Boys Town pedophile dirt bag. King embezzles 40 million and Herman Cain finds 30 million at the same time. Can you spell dirty dealer? He is a complete loser. Why would anyone support him? This double standard whining is bullshit. He's a dirt bag – end of story.
However Ron Paul is not……
Herman Cain is Not Guilty! I am Supporting and Voting For Herman Cain 2012! Peace Be Unto You All and God Bless! Jane.
Jane, no one here has said Herman Cain was guilty of anything other than being completely disorganized and incapable of properly responding to these countless allegations.
I simply want an honest candidate. Honest on ALL levels. A teaspoon of crap in a barrel of sugar is still crap.
For what its worth, Cain's campaign manager just told ABC News that Cain is not going to drop out:

Thanks Mary for the link, however we have reason to believe our sources over Mark Block at this time.
Oh yeah, and Obama can tell him to avoid the press "corpses" as he leaves the "57" States of America to become the new Ambassabor to Lybia..
Damned shame if these accusations are false and have made a potential candidate for the President of this great country to step aside. This would solidify the impact the media has on the electorate, meaning that the media would control the outcome of elections on the basis of a lie. If these accusers are making false statements, then they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. If their statements are true and proven, then Herman Cain should be prosecuted as well. It is time to hold people and the media accountable for their statements to us. I'm GD tired of being lied to and afterwards the liars go off like nothing happened. HEADS MUST ROLL!!
here's the sad part.everyone complains about the media-particularly the liberal media-yet when it came to these false allegations the very ppl that supported Cain ate them up and believed them to be true just because the media said so. The day after Herman Cain's suspension all the accusers vanished and have not been heard from since. We now support Herman Cain for the nomination at a brokered convention in Aug and we hope the ppl that were left still supporting him-the ones that didn't get taken in AGAIN by the media-will join us.We will grow this army and we hope you will join us! http://caintastic.wall.fm/index
Maybe Cain can secure a job as the new Ambassador to Libya. Oh yeah, does he know where that is?
If the announcement is made by Cain to withdrawal then he has total freedom to expose the fraud of barry soetero fraudulently occupying the Oval office. The truth of fraud throughout barry's (aka obama, aka Bari Shabazz, ) election can now be addressed by Cain since political aspirations are dimmed by his past or false attacks (who knows for sure?)
We do know that barry has NOT been vetted. We do know, he has two separate DNC nomination forms signed by Pelosi the one for Hawaii stating the qualification clause per Constitutional requirement, the other 49 states received a nomination form omitting the clause and saying only, "duly nominated". We also know, his birth record released on April 27th is forged. We also know, he uses a Connecticut SS# that is NOT his original, we also know, he cannot pass E-Verify as an employable citizen required by law. Add the possibility of obfuscating his past with the murder of choir boy friend Donald Young and the mysterious murder of Lt. Quarles Harris Jr. a witness of barry's passport history and the dots start connecting to major cover ups. Did the barry regime see defeat from the Cain campaign?
Herman Cain had the chance to point out the double standard and the media's refusal to expose Obama. With the latest disclosures by Ginger White Cain may very well have lost his ability to call others out.
I personally must call you on one point in your comment, we DO NOT know that Obama uses a CT SS#, we know that someone entered a CT SS# into the e verify system along with Obama's name.
Cain and his attorney had the opportunity to call out Gloria Allred for using the premisis of my 2008 claims against Obama but now few will listen to anything Mr. Cain says. Sad but true.
We do know he uses a CT SS#. The filed tax return listed and the Selective Service registration uses the same #. He never lived in CT. Susan Daniels private investigator has covered this extensively. Linda Jordan ran the E-Verify and has filed an affidavit as to the accuracy and procedure of employers required to verify employment legitimacy in the US.
I agree with you that ALL candidates have ample opportunity to request documentation of who barry really is. We do have a full blown Constitutional crisis running with an illegal putative POTUS. By his own book he states his dual citizenship and alleged father being Kenyan and British subject. One forged computer generated documented is all the record he has shown alleging his ID.
I Finished the book. Keep up the fight your tenacity is inspiring. The nation is hungry for truth and REAL leadership.
