Sure, if making excuses and pointing fingers is a good way of “handling it,” then Cain’s doing just fine!

Allegra -- it might do well for you to remember the essentially trivial nature of the original charges: "NON-sexual offensive gestures".

Compare that (as another FReeper has pointed out) to Obama's giving the finger in public on camera:

Compare Cain's response to Clarence Thomas's and to Clinton's.

Look at Cain's wife (compare to say Elliot Spitzer's wife, to Schwarzenegger's wife, to ...well, Weiner's wife, but lotsa folks think Huma was just Hillary's gal, so that one might not be fair.)

Cheers!

If you’d seen some of my posts from yesterday (I’m sure they’re still there) you’ll see that I found the sexual harassment charges somewhat trivial and they weren’t having any impact on my support for Mr. Cain.

I have always maintained that I would happily support Mr. Cain if he were the nominee, although I made one post this evening poking fun at another’s post saying I was “scratching him off my list.”

However, the Tiny Hyenas of Groupthink Island are particularly wound up tonight and the place is rife with hyperbole, innuendo and spin.

Personally, I’m rather entertained by it at this point.

Cheers!
