and friends know that you were jetting off to meet herman cain somewhere? my family knew, as i have two sisters. and either my sisters would keep my kids for the weekend. i wanted to make sure that my kids were safe and they were in good hands. and yes, my sisters, my brother and my mother were aware of this relationship. ç i d like you to listen to herman cain today. i think we have this sound of him today discussing the question of exactly how much money he gave you over the years. how much money did you give her? well, i because of my attorney and because of some inc. thises that we are looking at, i can t talk about that at this particular point. i can tell you, ginger white, that that is not a common answer in interviews with presidential candidates. i can t answer because of my lawyer tells me not to.
that was herman cain in new hampshire today. joining me now, the woman at the center of the latest herman cain controversy, ginger white who this week revealed her 13-year relationship with herman cain. she is joined by her lawyer, ç edward buckley. thank you both very much for joining me tonight. thank you. thank you for having us. ginger white, herman cain has said tonight that he believes you were offered a very large amount of money to come out and tell this story. is that why you re telling this story? absolutely not. no one has offered me anything. so that is false. he knows you well. what does it feel like for you to see him talking about you that way? it s very hurtful. very hurtful. now, he has acknowledged that he has known you for 13 years. he calls it a 13-year friendship. and so the difference that s being argued over right now is what was the nature of that
campaign is going to want to do is make him seem desperate in the face of a newt gingrich rise or some other candidates, voters not moving toward him. it s hard to see him completely shifting gears so far. they are not in as bad a shape as it might look to us. when are we going to answer? we ll start to know january 3rd. i think that s another reason that the big announcement we see out of herman cain land maybe won t be that he s dropping out. we ve seen candidates make announcements before we assume her going to drop out, turns out they simply announced they are staying in. no one would be surprised. let me quickly play ginger white, the woman who said she had the 13-year affair with herman cain. she was asked her opinion on whether or not he would drop out of the race. let s play what she had to say. you know, i m really not quite sure. i do believe him when he says he will have that discussion. he has never and to be a
