In an announcement in front of what would be his Georgia campaign headquarters, Herman Cain with his wife, Gloria, by his side let a crowd of supporters know that he was suspending his campaign for president. The allegations of sexual misconduct and infidelity had become too big of a burden for him and his wife.
Cain stated that the accusations were false; however, they have impacted his family as well as caused him to be "sidetracked and distracted" from the campaign. The allegations have also impacted his ability to raise money to sustain his bid for the White House.
"I am suspending my presidential campaign because of the continued distraction, the continued hurt caused on me and my family," Cain said, adding that he reached the decision "with a lot of prayer and soul-searching."
Although Cain has given up his run for the White House, he said that he would continue to be a "voice for the people." Cain announced his new web site, www.cainsolutions.com.
