I would also like to call attention to another thing I noticed this week.
Shortly after Rick Perry gave the speech about taking a sledge hammer and later a wrecking ball to DC, he fell out of favor with the establishment. That in my opinion is why he is being zeroed in on over the Cain nonsense.
I hate dirty politics, and the Dems practice an extremely vile version of it.
Politicians are so hyperbole prone that talk about “wrecking” DC would scarcely merit a yawn. “Yeah, Rick, you and what army, ho-hum?”
Cain is more personable than Perry. Which could explain why certain anti-conservative types (Pub or Rat) want to paint him as a monster NOW, rather than waiting for him to get nominated.
