“We found out about these allegations the same time I suspect everybody else did, read about them online and our campaign had absolutely nothing to do with it,” Rick Perry told RedState’s Erick Erickson in an interview. “I’m disappointed that there’s finger pointing going on.”
“There’s not anybody in my campaign that knew anything about this,” Perry added, noting that included anyone affiliated with the campaign “in any form or fashion.”
“End of story,” Perry continued. “This is one of those that’s about as clear cut as I can tell you. We found out about the allegations against Mr. Cain at the same time everybody else did.”
