[Smokin' Joe]

I think the problem is that he is talking with people in the media as if they know what he knows. He has to remember the average talking head is dumb as a post, and the pundits are often little better off.

I'll prempt comments for insulting posts by saying many are smarter than the talking heads.

Look, Smokin’ Joe, you’re trying to sugar-coat it. The talking heads and pundits aren’t any smarter when they are talking to walking dunces like Obama and Biden, are they? And yet Obama and Biden never get called on any of the stupid stuff they spew all day long, do they?

No, Joe, it’s not that the talking heads and pundits are stupid — though of course you’re right, they are — it’s that they are in a WAR AGAINST CONSERVATIVES. It’s a war that’s in progress 24 hours 7 days a week 52 weeks a year.

And it’s Cain’s inexperience in that war that leads him to fall into such easy traps set for him by the every-watchful Enemy.

I wonder how well served Cain is by his current staff in this war. I wonder how much Cain has learned in recent weeks from his own bruising battles in this war.

Whatever the answers are, no true Cain supporter can do anything but worry about what those answers actually are.
