Now that both political establishments and the media has driven Herman Cain from the race for the GOP Nomination with empty allegations, that did not measure up to any smell test, the truth of the matter is that Cain was driven from the race because he was not part of the political elite class on both sides along with the media that has selected out candidates since 1993.
When Cain first entered the race, both political establishments asked, "Why was he even in the race having never held public office," but even as his unconventional campaign started to appeal to Tea Party Members and Americans sick of politics as usual, then came the tagline that he was only in the race to sell his book. Despite all these talking points being forge by the political establishments and the media, even more Americans were drawn to Cain's 9-9-9 plan which lead him to front runner status in what was suppose to be in a already decided race between Romney and Obama.
The Republican and Democrat Establishments thus had to remove Cain from the race because it could not have the American People throw it plans into total chaos as Cain was not part of the political class that cuts deals in the back of smoke filled room and tries to sell itself as Conservative and Liberal as any Mr. Smith goes to Washington Story lines are complete unacceptable in the eyes of the media and the establishments.
Cain's withdrawal from the is clearly a victory for the Alexrod/Rove/Media Machine as they will be the ones, who give us the candidate that will face Obama and right not it looks like for the GOP that Mittens Romney will be that nominee!
You nailed it. It's pathetic. The Chicago mob has joined with the RINOs to write the script for 2012.

Sorry for the echo. It’s that pesky “service unavailable” thing.
Liberal letter writers to the local fishwrap are already using Cain’s departure as proof of the “inherent racism of the GOP”.
The only bigotry involved was the bigotry against outsiders which in my opinion is the same thing.
I agree with you, and it makes me sick that we seen that way. Also disgusting is how the media excuses the behavior of the “favored”, and leaps on unverified accusations toward the “unfavored”.
But, I have faith that the Father of us all will write straight, in spite of all the crooked lines being drawn by the so-called “elite”.
And, if what I think is coming, in fact, does come. I am glad that Herman Cain will not be in office, and then be blamed for it. Perhaps he made the wisest decision, seeing how corrupt the system has become.
If conservatives and especially Tea Party members were so strong for Herman Cain, how could these fine folks be so manipulated by an obvious media conspiracy against Herman Cain?
Are you saying that those who plan on voting in the Republican primaries and caucuses are not smart enough to see through this great conspiracy?
Herman Cain made history as a trail-blazer. He embraced his supporters as they encouraged him toward a shining city on a hill.
There is something noble and comforting in that remarkable display of mutual respect and affection. It is a beginning not an end. We, the people know who we are. Herman Cain is one of us, only better.
No, I am saying that the Alexrod/Rove/Media Machine would have taken it to the nest level and believe the next one would have been that Cain’s former college Girlfriend had an abortion back in the 60’s.
The political establishments and media have been selecting out candidates for us since 1993 and if you are indeed old enough to remember, the same thing they did to Cain is almost what they were able to do to Reagan in the 1980 GOP Nomination Race.
Change the last word from "plans" to "sinecures" and I think you are closer to the mark. The "Alexrod/Rove/Media Machine" are doing just peachy the way things are right now and have no desire to change anything, even if the rest of the country -- and by extension the world -- goes to Hell.
Still, and I might be alone in this, I believe that Cain's removal from the nomination process was driven to a large degree by Barack H. Obama himself. I base that conclusion on my own reading of Obama, who I believe is both narcissistic and paranoid.
Simply put. Cain scared Obama at the deepest level of his profoundly pathetic soul. There is absolutely no way that Obama could have taken the stage in a debate between the two of them.
If you have so much faith in the Conservatives in the Republican Party, how does all of that explain the great drop in Cain’s poll numbers?
A few weeks ago Cain was polling at 23% among likely Republican primary voters and a few days ago he was polling at 6%.
Again. please explain to me how these fine conservative Americans who just a few weeks ago were supporting Cain were so easily manipulated by the Alexrod/Rove/ Conspiracy Media Machine?
If I could have one wish, it would be that more Americans could understand how the Elite Ruling Class is the root of so much evil, the cause of the disease that threatens this great nation.
I supported Sarah Palin, because she is a real person, and an outsider.
Then I supported Herman Cain, for the same reasons - plus the fact that he brought business acumen and problem solving skills.
Now I’m supposed to be happy we have an Insider who is witty and smart, but not smart enough to realize that sitting on the couch with Nancy Pelosi is never a good idea”?
I just hoped I could vote, at least in a Primary, for a non-politician who held conservative beliefs.
But now, the choice is, “Which flavor of Insider will you choose?” Dammit.
People can and did argue whether Cain would make a good nominee or president, but that ain’t why he was forced out.
To the dems he was both a threat and an Uncle Tom off the plantation. To the GOP establishment, he just plain wasn’t in the club as you say.
I am angry he didn’t get a fair shot.

Many of those people were what I call drive by Conservatives, who latch on to anything they believe is a winner at the time, it will happen to Newt as well in the next few weeks as he is and was part of the same political machine, no matter what the Rove/Republican Machine will make damn sure we get Romney because they are no interested in winning in 2012, they want 2016 and we know Jeb is waiting in the wings.
