If only that were true.
He didn’t just “back away”.
He now claims he never said anything against Governor Perry, only the rock.
I just posted the words he said. He most certainly, exactly, precisely, said it against Governor Perry.
The reason he now denies attacking Perry on the matter is that the truth caught up to him. The truth that the Perry family did not do what he accused them of, but did just the opposite, caught up with Herman.
My problem is, when people say he cleared that up, no, he didn’t. He simply started claiming he never said what we have his own words out of his own mouth on national television, saying.
Both of the principals, Cain and Perry, have responded to each other. Effectively, they have reached a truce.
When a battle is over, quit fighting and prepare for the next one.
No doubt someone in the MSM, in concert with the Obamanistas, will dig up some more dirt somewhere. In this case, they literally turned over a rock and brushed dirt off of it to take a picture of words no longer recognizable.
