Check the Real Clear Politics poll average. Cain's support has gone almost vertical while Romney is fading

...and anyone else who has been sexually assaulted by Democrats to relate their stories to the news creeps.

He would have to hold it in the Super Dome.

Cain wasn’t screaming. He was raising his voice, and yet smiling the whole time.

They ARE misrepresenting the situation.

Jerks.

And then he very calmly and politely,
like a gentleman addressing a slow child,
said “what part of ‘no’ don’t they understand?”

with at least one newspaper photographer taking a hard blow to the face.

By not making it clear, the reporter appears to imply that Mr. Cain hit a photographer in the face.

I’m glad you’re now aboard the Cain train! Send him all the money you can afford, he’ll need it to win the general election.

If this is the best (worst) they can dig up on my main man Herman, then hell he has nothing to worry about.
I mean did she need ice on it? Was there a blue dress? Did he soil the sink? Did he commit perjury in court?

Case Closed.

Message to Mr.Herman Cain!!! Mr. Cain, I know this hurtful destructive war against you is painful to you, your wife, your family and millions of your loyal supporters. The attacks, however, IMHO, will continue unabated from your enemies of all stripes. You represent a sea change to these people, whoever they are. You represent the change of the elitist establishment that has worked so diligently to tear America down. Sir, you and only you, must reach inward and continue on just as Washington did in our Revolution and Lincoln did during the civil war. America stands firm today because of the pain and personal attack that these freedom builders sustained. Yes, it is hard and....it is also hard on all around you, including the persons of accusations. They, like Anita Hill are being used as pawns to be discarded, thrown onto a garbage heap after, the vultures around them get to pick their bones clean. I pray, they have the good sense not to enter this failing fray, by honoring their agreements which are in place to protect them also. Our Lord in his wisdom has chosen you to become both savior and game changer in this American moment. You must, for your sake and....more importantly ours, stay strong, above the fray and focused on the end result for you and your country, America. I can assure you, the Lord has ordained that you have been chosen to forge America into one nation with equality, liberty, opportunity and freedom for all Americans and future Americans to come. We, the people, got your back, sir!!! Onward with no mean, or hurtful, malice, just progress, focus and success!!! Martin Luther KIng is proud of you, and...is in your corner as we are!!! A profile in courage you must become!!!

If it is the video I just watched linked from Drudge, I thought he was extraordinarily calm about the whole deal, shrugs. Eye of the beholder I guess, but again, from my POV, he was very clear with them. They ignored what he said and blocked the way, so he responded with three increasingly firm “excuse mes”, before he commented aloud about what part of no they did not understand, lol.

May God guide our course.

“Cain Avoids News Media in a Tense Encounter”

Yeah, totally unfair to Cain. Poor SOB doesn’t have a chance - the media is in full destruction mode now. They created the scene and are making Cain look like he caused it!

The Left (and maybe some of the Right) is truly getting hysterical over Cain. This just makes me think more and more that we've found our candidate.

Watch the video. The reporter scum were the ones screaming, not Cain. The report is a lie.

...a little bit of a scrum and tussle ensued...
That's the second time I've seen this word used today and from different places.

Cain gets testy with reporters asking about sexual harassment allegations
“Let me say one thing,” Cain told the scrum of reporters.

scrum - 1 b : a usually brief and disorderly struggle or fight : scrape, scuffle
2 b : a usually tightly packed or disorderly crowd : throng

Either way, these reporters appear to be the "Scrum of the Earth".

“implies that Mr. Cain hit a photographer in the face”

If he had he’d jump another 10 points in the polls.

lol
