Someone needs to figure out why the Cain hate for Perry.
Not only did he make the ridiculous claim that Perry is racist based on a Rock, but he made the odd and unnecessary statement that he would be willing to be a veep for Romney but not Perry.
More interesting to me than this woman charge, except, well, why did he indicate that no matter how many women came forward they were all lying ... okay, okay, not in so many words but ....
I really don’t care about the women. I care that he is so amateurish and unprofessional.
If he can’t handle this simple little thing, how can he run a country?
That is pretty much how I see it, altura. When did we evolve in our own primaries to hero worship and blinders? This is when we are supposed to vet the best candidate out of the bunch to go up against the other party, instead we seem to be holding a popularity contest and since Hannity, Levin, Boortz all think their fellow radio guy is the cats-meow then hey vote for him, no matter if he a GOP version of Bill Clinton... what bothers me is he didn’t seem to know China has nukes, thinks he can use Aegis missals to protect us from Iran, his 999 plan will kill the poor and seniors on fixed incomes; just like Clinton and Obama he is skating by on charm, i want substance.
Mr. Cain never said that Gov. Perry was a racist... he specifically said that he did not believe that Gov. Perry was a racist but that the name painted on the rock was “insensitive”.
This was a gotcha question posed by the media. Mr. Cain could have ignored it completely and gave ammunition to those calling him an “Uncle Tom” or he could respond in the least confrontational way possible. It is a little unbelievable to me that Perry people have savored this issue for so long. Everyone would have forgotten about it if Perry people would stop bringing it up in discussion after discussion. We understand that you want your guy to look like he is a victim but it is starting to get a little pathetic.
