The current conventional wisdom regarding Herman Cain is that, at best, his campaign is a ticking time bomb certain to implode like those of Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann and Donald Trump already have. At worst, his campaign is already burnt toast thanks to the uncovering of two sexual harassment claims against him from the 1990s.
As is often the case, the conventional wisdom is dead wrong. In reality, Cain has never been in a stronger position to win the nomination than he is at this moment.
Keep in mind this is coming from someone who likes Cain personally, but who is positively certain that his nomination would not only assure President Obama’s re-election, but also the restoration of a fully Democratic Congress.
There are many factors which make Cain’s bid for the Republican nomination still more than viable and perhaps even formidable.

yes!
cain stronger.
rove the c, madder and madder.
Yet another Romneybot saying that we have to suck it up and vote for Romney, and that we probably will not take the Senate.
His narrative is very 2 dimensional - he assumes things will stay constant as they are today, and there are some simple rules that govern the “ways of the world”. His analysis is terrible on Cain.
Cain has captured the imagination of the people - not the media. I'm not saying this little “scandal” won't be good for Cain - but I think Cain could easily take Obama.
Sorry, just another butmonkey.
No thanks.
.
A vote for Romney is a vote for Obama!!!
Gad I'm tired of these analogies.
Ziegler’s view of the conservative media strikes me as too cynical, which makes me doubt his instincts and overall analysis. I wonder how his track record is in these kinds of things. Did he call the midterms correctly?
When did Donald Trump declare his candidacy? How did I miss that?
You know what, let us nominate a conservative candidate, work hard and allow the chips to fall in place. Atleast after the election, we can feel ease. For all these idiots who think romney will get moderate vote, he will loose big among conservatives and there will be 1 or 2 people sitting in election offices during election. I don’t want to walk to see that somber mood in my county GOP office.
Thank you. These manipulating forces are determined to control our votes with their propaganda.
You’re right, let’s nominate a conservative and get behind them 100%.
And God knows we hate concerned people. And professionals. And people with experience.
Establishment claptrap. Romney is the one who cannot beat Obama, and Obama knows it. He’s scared to death of Herman, because Cain can.
A vote for Romney is a vote for Obama!!!
Both true!
I guess if a conservative like Cain can’t win we need someone like McCain. That should work as well as it did last time.
“...already burnt toast thanks to the uncovering of two sexual harassment claims against him from the 1990s.”
I’d say evidence of a blue dress or a pubic hair on a coke can (DNA) is in order before the “allegations” against Cain can be taken seriously. Soros “buys” Secretaries of State, politicians, “journalists”, “revolutions”, sex and stupid women every day.
