cnn ^ | 5/21/11 | : CNN Political Producer Shannon Travis

Posted on 05/23/2011 5:27:30 PM PDT by Typical_Whitey

Atlanta (CNN) – Using an urban phrase used to convey a sense of excitement, radio host and businessman Herman Cain emerged to throngs of supporters on Saturday and formally announced his presidential bid.

"Awww shucky ducky," the conservative Republican joked with the crowd in Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park as he stepped out to applause and adoring chants.

The Democrats and the MSM are trying to pick a Republican/Rino loser for Zero to run against. They would like to have Zero run against Newt or Romney. They deathly fear Bachmann, Cain, Pawlenty and other consevative candidates.

That line was written by the scum at CNN to portray the Uncle Tom image they will be slamming Cain with from here on out.

Notice how they say he "stepped out" to "applause and adoring chants" as he says shucky ducky. Yeah, he's a real Mr Bojangles, shufflin and jivin for da white folks.

Sick and pathetic. Sure, Cain is the Tom when Obama has to be told by the white man to take out Osama and preen for the cameras that he did it.

You may like this if you didn’t see it tonight - Herman’s interview on Hannity tonight - at about 3:09 into it, he addresses the FNS moment, quite honestly. He’s a very good man.

There is a story (I think it was about Henry Ford) where he is under oath in a courtroom and they are asking all these technical questions that he has to keep answering with, “I don’t know”.

He finally gets tried of it and says, “I don’t know the answer to your question, but if you give me two minutes I can get an expert down here who can!”

I want someone who is decisive, but when he/she doesn’t know the correct answer, has the intelligence to have the right people to turn to.

“But..... why would he bring his race into it at all?”

Obama and his Black Nationalist Theology/Islamic/Marxist background and his radical/communist/street thug buddies have set race relations back in this country at least 50 years. He and his operatives have been race baiting since he first appeared on the campaign scene, escalating since ‘08 and throughout his term. It fits with the strategies of Cloward & Piven and Saul Alinsky. He’s creating chaos both abroad (Middle East on fire, disposing of our allies one by one) and here at home, laying the kindling for a civil war - more and more likely about race.

Amen - and Herman does. He’s been putting together winning teams throughout his successful career. (And unlike BHO, he’s classy enough to give credit where credit’s due:-)

I have watched them do this to national conservative candidates (especially threatening ones) since 1972. Trying to marginalize and make fun of. They are very skilled at it. The little J-school grad Bastards.

I also noticed something very very interesting in his Atlanta Presidentical Campaign announcement over the weekend.p>Did anyone else notice?

Herman was TRULY enjoying himself (which is going to come in handy in the thick of the battle when they thrown the kitchen sink at him and his family), and he also made it all about AMERICA and the PEOPLE ASSEMBLED, not about himself. This is was such great contrast with The Messiah. In fact, it was most refreshing. That attitude will take Herman FAR. This is what carried Ronald Reagan to the White House in very dark economic and foreign policy days for America. It resonated and turned people ON. I think we could see a repeat of 31 years ago.

Narrative. Imagery. Marginializing.

It is in their manual. They are darned good at it, too.

They will try, by six months from now, to have this guy as a national laughing stock like they painted Dan Quayle. And nobody will think a racist thing about it, and yet if it was tried on "The Messiah", why... RACISSSSSTTTT!!

No different than the ones here saying they will do write ins for candidates who don’t even have the guts to run.Their candidates are waiting in the wings to be someones, anyone’s (even RomneyCare’s) VP. With the current Tea party vs. The GOP sad divide; a third party candidate tea partier/Indy- would directly compete with (NOT OBAMA) but it would compete with Cain,Bachmann.

Go Cain and Bachmann!

I like Herman a lot, but who told him that it’s a good idea for a person introducing himself to the public to HIDE HIS EYES behind sunglasses? Not prime time stuff. Or is this a “Godfather” kind of thing???

“What is he going to say when David Gregory presses him on his “real black man” comments?”

You apparently being a Newt guy should think twice about bringing up the name David Gregory, especially after this second rate news pimp made Newt look so bad.

Newt is a pompous egomaniac.

I like Herman Cain.He’s lived through history, REALLY suffered racism, laughed in its face, advanced himself in spite of it all. . . has been successful in not one but three different careers ...he’s a very honorable man — we should all just stop picking at the carcass and start SUPPORTING these very good and decent candidates.

“..we should all just stop picking at the carcass and start SUPPORTING these very good and decent candidates.”

So we should say that he knocked it out of the park with Chris Wallace? I don’t think so. Our conservative candidates MUST do a better job of prepping for these interviews and stop stepping on their cranks, or as in pompous Newts case, getting their d**ks knocked in the dirt.

If you’re gonna win the gold trophy (ala Dancing With the Stars), you’ve got to expect some “constructive” criticism. I think most of the critics were DISAPPOINTED in that portion of the performance, not picking at the carcass. I like Cain, but I like Palin and Bachmann better.

A couple of more performances like that and he will likely be squeezing the marbles like Humphrey in the Caine Mutiny.

Maybe because liberal media had already brought up the race issue and tried to paint him as an “Uncle Tom”?

Newt is just getting warmed up, although he did have a bad week.

Is that what you call it? Newt has betrayed a "centrist" set of values that would be the last straw were he elected. There is no time left for incrementalism.

I’d much rather have a potus who does not know every foreign policy issue than have one who was schooled in Marxist Muslim propaganda.
