BTW, the question in the thread title is a rhetorical question. The answer is self-evident.

On the Politico website on the front page the first 12 stories are on Cain. They’re having a meltdown.

“Why did Establishment media go after Cain, yet leave it to The Enquirer to go after John Edwards?”

The establishment (G.O.P. Rino elite, democrats and the msm) did not fear John Edwards. Herman Cain scares the HELL out of them.

The media kept quiet on Edwards to help propel Obama. If he was out early, Hillary would have gained steam and gotten the nomination.

If Hermain Cain is elected President, it will be the end of elites and the left as we know them.

As we can see so far, the MSM first went after Bachmann, then Perry, now Cain, while largely ignoring Paul along the way.

Romney would be extremely easy for Obama to defeat. All he would need to do would be to create a series of vidoes showing Romney’s positions. For example, juxtapose Romney saying we needed to reduce greenhouse gasses (when he was governor) with Romney’s recent climate change skepticism.

Liberals won’t vote for him because he won’t pass cap-and-tax.

Conservatives won’t vote for him because he will.

Independents won’t vote for him because he flip-flops worse than Kerry.

Because an extra-marital affair which produced a love child and was denied, is not as important as telling a woman she is same height as the wife. Come on....can’t you understand the seriousness of that “upto my chin” statement? /S

Why did Newsweek pass on reporting Clinton-Lewinsky, leaving Drudge to break the story?

Why? because they have no shame, no morals
and no memory of what a journalist once was,
and they are biased.

For the same reason they couldn’t report on any of Obama’s scandals or inadequacies, but ran like heck to stick a totally unsubstantiated story of McCain’s infidelity on the front of the NY Times.

Cain is dangerous. He’s a black man who is a Conservative, and must NOT be allowed to succeed as a role model. Powerful conservatives from traditional victim groups MUST be kept on the plantation by the liberal media, and it doesn’t matter how it is done.

This is the time they do it. When the candidate first starts to come to national attention - before, the story doesn’t get enough notice, and after, they’ve developed a media personality. Like Palin, the destruction starts the moment they start to come out - the MSM has to define them as stupid, immoral, etc BEFORE Americans really start to get who the candidate REALLY is.

It’s a classic MSM conservative hating attack.
