Woman Writing Book About Affair with Herman Cain

October 24, 2012 · 7:51 am ET · Leave a Comment

Ginger White tells Daily Download that she plans to prove that she had a 13-year affair with Herman Cain in a new book which could prompt the former presidential candidate “to be a little more honest with his wife, because the details that I share, only she would know.”

While acknowledging that she was “getting all this help from Herman Cain” — as much as $6,000 a month — White was emphatic in declaring: “I am not a hooker. I am not a prostitute.”

She added: “My thing was, okay, I’ll take advantage of you before you take advantage of me. Let’s flip the script. I’m not gonna be your nice little hottie…You want to take my time away from my kids, my family, I’m going to make you sort of pay for it just a little bit.”


Here’s the interview:
