Through repetition, the left's smears soon became conventional wisdom. When they became "the truth," his nomination was toast, and the left had a template for spuriously denouncing GOP initiatives: Social Security reform equals throwing grandma into the gutter and forcing seniors to choose between food and life-saving prescription drugs; welfare reform equals racism; school-lunch reform equals malnutrition; Medicare reform equals pushing people in wheelchairs off a cliff. This quote is something that needs serious discussion, because it is obviously the same technique they are using to try and sink Cain. The validity of the charges be damned, if they get enough women out there saying "it happened to me, too" the narrative will become "geez... so many, must be true."
It's frustrating because we can moan and groan about all we want, but the technique itself is very effective.

Through repetition...
" The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success
unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly -
- it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over."
