I apologize if this has been discussed / posted before. Herman Cain is linked to Aquila which collapsed essentially Enron style. This could be devastating for Cain if he is the GOP nominee...this is tailor made for negative ads to go after Cain's business acumen and integrity.

I am waiting for the Herman-Cain-causes-cancer story.

I am aware that the smears against him have commenced.

Well no surprise the Leftist smear machine has jumped into action.

Did not bother to check your source did you? This is a Leftist propaganda cite pretending to be “news”

Mother Jones? Cut me a break. And do a better job vetting your sources. Cain had no involvement in basic operations of Aquila, from what I have seen from other posters who bother to do some homework on this subject instead of posting hatchet jobs from far-left wingnut sites.

The vaunted Romney oppo research apparatus must be hard at work for its desperate boss.

he allegedly steered employees into heavily investing their retirement savings in company stock, while at the same time shifting their business model from straightforward energy generation to risky energy trading – the kind of corporate greed that infamously brought down Enron, Mother Jones reports."

Um, "Mother Jones," Enron didn't collapse because of energy trading, they collapsed because they hid their losses in shell companies.

Cain was cleared of this a long time ago. A few leftists and Mother Jones are trying to bring it back.

Far-left, loony mags have run this story, but no one else. Why do you suppose that is, Maneesh?

His positives outweigh the negatives. This is a non issue.

Well well, CaIn has quite a history of screwing employees and hiding relevant information about his past. Not to mention his fast and loose campaign shenanigans.

So much so, in fact, that on Saturday he officially unveiled his candidacy for the 2012 GOP nomination.

Wouldn't this passage here tell you it's an old "story?" He's been a candidate for months.

Okay. So now we REALLY hate Huckabee, Pawlenty, Christie, Huntsman, Palin, Bachmann, Gingrich, Perry, Romney, Cain, Paul and Santorum because they are all a bunch of corrupt, low life bass turds. Who da **** DO WE LIKE? I need a break here! Who should I support?

Yes actually this HAS been discussed here and elsewhere before. Cain had nothing to do with the collapse of that company.

Have a nice day.

Is this the best you can do?

You apparently missed the Mother Jones headlines about Obama cheating American taxes payers out of almost a trillion dollars in failed stimulus funds... oh wait this is Mother Jones. /sarc.

Agree this is a non-issue as it’s posted from a left-wing rag.

Also agree that Perry gets a lot of left-wing propaganda posted about him too.
