American Way: A funny thing happened on the way to the Herman Cain lynching
The Telegraph (UK) ^ | November 5, 2011 | Toby Harnden

...[Snip]...(Cain): “You know, I've been in Washington all week, and I've attracted a little bit of attention,” he boomed. “And there was an article in The New York Times today that has attempted to attract some more attention. You know, that's kind of what happens when you start to show up near or at the top of the polls. It just happens that way.”

Photobucket Politico ran 90 anti-Cain stories in 5 days: in 5 days! And over what? A gesture! Not a rape, an attack, or an affair with an intern in the Oval Office who isn't your wife...but a gesture! The left is terrified of Herman because he poses the biggest threat to Obama's voting base & socialist agenda. And how is it Politico failed to thoroughly cover the fact Obama snorted coke, smoked weed, was mentored by a self-confessed communist/wanted terrorist in Bill Ayers, & spent 20 years in a racist, anti-American church? Yet, they're talking about a GESTURE amidst this mountain of scandal & historic failures by this administration. Wake-up, America! Perspective, not propaganda!

The only coverage the MSM gave to the great Lincoln-Douglas style debate between Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich was how Cain said he has put the harassment allegations to rest and would no longer answer questions in that area.

There was a tremendous amount of substance and many creative ideas in the debate last night, but the media has decided that they will keep hammering on the anonymous allegations no matter what.

The Left tries to destroy those who oppose them. They have no ideas and no logic to their beliefs. Vicious, unfair, constant, large scale personal assaults are all they have left — and they are very, very good at it.

Everyone in The Middle and on The Right needs to understand that we are fighting the ugliness and dirtiness of their vendettas much more than we are fighting their ideas; and that the level of the attacks by The Left is an order of magnitude nastier for outsiders, minority conservatives and women — they are indeed high tech lynchings.

Do not believe for one second that the mob frenzy and lynching by The Left is over.

"In retrospect, the unexpected problems I encountered at Burger King may have been a blessing in disguise. Had I anticipated them upfront I might have lost sight of my dream. Instead, I focused on the problems as they came to light.That's what CEO's do all the time:Solve problems so they can move on --and stay focused"..... excerpt from book 'This is Herman Cain', page 58

“vintage Cain – strong on rhetoric, short on policy detail, powerfully delivered and unashamedly politically incorrect.”

This is the left’s bigggg problem, not that we have a socialist in the White House, not that the jobs are disappearing from America faster than snow on a hot day, not that our credit rating has been demoted...but omg, WHAT is the right ‘speech’.

Well, if that is so, then let Cain’s success overtake them all! In the words of Funny thing happened on the way to the Forum:

Everybody aught to have a maid!

(and for those of you who have never seen that musical)

"Rather than being prepared for the inevitable disclosure of the cases, he was caught flat-footed, claiming at first not to remember what had happened and then dribbling out details and shifting explanations over the ensuing days."

How does one prepare for lies against them? I have been suffering through this at work. There are 2-3 backstabbing liars the rest of us must deal with. They try to pit us against each other with their lies, for their own gain.

Fortunately, the truth will always reveal it's head. I have found out about lies against me, behind my back, AFTER I have proven them wrong, without any prior knowledge of them.

The one backstabbing liar actually admitted a lie told against me after she saw the "allegation" was not true. But yet, she's still believing the lies. When I call her out on them, it turns into a screaming match.

I must keep my job, so I no longer engage in these "conversations". The only thing I can do is keep doing my job to the best of my ability, and more and keep proving the liars as to what they are......LIARS.

Meet the Press, which has really gone downhill since the death of Tim Russert, devoted the entire hour to “is Cain’s campaign over”. Blah, blah, blah.

Yep. Pathetic. Journalism has nothing to do with the truth anymore. Just sad.

I would like to see Cain and Gingrich work together to make journolisto malpractice a high-priority issue in this campaign.

They’ll never stop trying to deflect attention from Obama’s historic failures. Not in a heartbeat. If I was Cain, I’d just stay on point and let them look like mad, rabid dogs. After all, look at the state of the country. If Cain, or any potential nominee keeps the focus where it belongs...the economy...they have a good chance to succeed.

All the left did was galvanize support for Cain!

Just as the left could not destroy the Tea Party because it is unconventional, they cannot destroy Cain.

Welcome to the Tea Party, Pal!

I personally think that David Gregory is as mad as a hatter! Oh, how I long for the days of Tim Russert.
