Cain was asked on ABC about the crowd at the debate booing the gay soldier.

Cain defended the audience saying they were booing the repeal of DADT, not the soldier personally.

When pressed about crowd reaction, he said it is not the candidates but the moderators’ role to deal with crowd outbursts.

When pressed further, he said if people were going to misinterpret that to mean they were booing the soldier personally and not the policy, then perhaps it could have been appropriate to make a comment to the crowd.

In other words, a bunch of nothing.

I just wanted to say “Thank you too” as you gave me a detailed explanation, (which I just confirmed), and i appreciate that. Cain did not (so far as I can tell from the FR posted article) say he “should have said” anything. He said it would have been appropriate to do so...for the moderators, since it is the job of the moderators to maintain the audience.
