Karl Rove Declares That Herman Cain Has ‘Peaked’

Herman Cain’s reign on top of the 2012 contender list may be coming to an end. That’s the impression Karl Rove gave during an appearance on Fox News this morning as he slammed the candidate as having “created an image of him not being up for this task” through a series of blunders. The conversation began with talk of Cain’s seemingly-confused stance on abortion. However, Rove then continued, pulling out an entire white board filled with missteps Cain had made thus far in the campaign. This all correlated with poll numbers that, according to Rove, show that Cain had already “peaked.”

Rove ALWAYS outdoes himself at thuggery.

He will be remembered as the backstabber of the GOP.
His ancestors must have burned women on the stake.

I have not forgotten how he destroyed Christine O’Donnell. He was foaming at the mouth when she beat Castle - absolutely FOAMING and he would not drop it! He made a damned fool out of himself. He was unhinged. He tried to defend himself by stating that he was commenting as a “commentator”. Baloney.

Who cares what Rove thinks? I know I couldn’t care less if I tried real hard.

Karl Rove out walking in his yard, comes across a hole in the ground. He queries. “Is that my A$$?”

The 'Lamestream' media, the rino's, inside the beltway boys and political pundits of all stripes never saw Cain as a viable candidate. There has been a solid stream of reasons coming from them since he announced as to why Cain couldn't be taken seriously, way Cain can't win, why Cain was a second tier candidate and as those reasons grew thinner in substance they have been forced again and again to find more and different reasons as to why Cain can't win.

Why do they continue to derail Cain even as he defeats their arguments against him?

There are any number of reason, he is not a member of the insiders club for one, he’s not a known career politician for another, but mostly these people just don’t understand a man like Herman Cain. Not that that is entirely their fault, because men like Herman Cain are so rare these days, men of real integrity.

It’s been at least 30 years since the ‘Lamestream’ Media has had to deal with some of Cain’s stripe and they are completely out of their depths in trying to understand him.

Herman Cain who truly was until recently a virtual unknown had faith enough in himself to decide to run for President of the United States on his own. There was no Media hype/pressure/build-up about a possible run, there was no urging by members of the Party, no words spoken into his ear by party players, elites, beltway boys or pundits, not even a word of encouragement from the Republican Party of his home state only faith in himself.

And time and time again Herman Cain has shown just what kind of man he is. Is he without faults? Hardly, no man is without his faults, but one measure of a man is how he faces his faults and Herman not only faces his faults, but admits to them, learns from them, teaches others from then and lastly he laughs at himself over them and it takes a man who is truly sure in himself to be able to laugh at their own mistakes.

Considering the great numbers of skeptics on this forum I am sure there will be a good number of FReepers who will find this post funny and stupid, but here goes: I think one of the reasons people support Herman and why so many skeptics can’t see Cain for what he is can be summed up in the following lines from the 2003 movie 'Secondhand Lions'

Hub: "Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in."

In Herman Cain we see a good man, an honorable man, a man that has made his mark through his own effort and owes no one other than God and his Parents for his success. We see a man who did not seek money and power, but achieved them and a yet they clearly hold no sway over him.

Maybe we are foolish and gullible, maybe we have all seen ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington’ one to many times and now think that Good really can triumph over evil. The skeptics, naysayers, elitist, ‘Lamestream’ media types don’t believe in anything, but there are still some of us, many of us that choose to believe, because those are things worth believing in.

Rove wants to be relevant.

Rove is clueless. He told Greta Cain had dropped in the polling since Rove and other morons tried making something of the abortion issue. And used Real Clear Politics as his source. While Cain has dropped .1% (he was at 26% and is not at 25.9%) Cain is now leading by a full percentage point in part because it is Rove's boy, Romney, who has fallen from 25.5% to 24.9%.

[Gritty]

Karl who?

[windsorknot]

Rove is “piqued” by Herman Cain’s popularity.

[Kozy]

Romney has peaked for 6 years at 25%.
Mitt couldn't beat McCain 4 years ago. Enough said.
Cain just keeps chugging up the mountain. The RINO’s hate him because he and we don't need them. They are like the MSM, dead but showing nerve reactions still

[2ndDivisionVet]

Sarah Palin, Christine O’Donnell, Herman Cain... So Karl likes to pick on women and minorities.

[hosepipe]

Beat Obama with a Cain...

I have two words for Karl Rove, and they are not Happy Birthday. He can take that little chalk board of his and put it where the sun don’t shine.

BenKenobi,this is what I Freepmailed you, but the url kept getting messed up.

[BenKenobi]

Yeah, I changed it to the original pic from photobucket.

For some reason I opened the wrong file this morning, and used the old one instead of the new one. *sigh*.

Anyways, I have the right file now with the right picture.

Karl be careful or “We The People” will elect Herman just to spite you and your elitist buddies. Herman will become more disciplined and get the job done. Then Karl you and all your elite buddies will be out of the influence circle and we will thank God for that.
