Let’s see - enormous support, polling, fundraising AFTER the event, having the NRA confirm Cain’s side of events on Friday, watching these two women’s stories fall apart, hiring L. Lin Wood who is a bulldog legal attorney AND passing a lie detector software...
But it was the DEBATE that saved Cain.
Whatever!
Actually, it was Perry bombing at the debate that saved Cain, or so says the leftist media.
Cain has benefited BIG TIME by conservatives like me rallying to his defense. I’ll be happy when all this sexual harassment junk is over with so I can begin pointing out Cain short comings. But as long as he is on point in our battle with the Marxist media I am forced to defend him and not criticize him.
It doesn’t matter, and the BI is right.
All those things you point out are true - Cain’s innocent. However, the charge attached and as long as there was nothing else to feed the news cycle, that was going to be the story.
On November 3 another story came out on Obama’s gay advances on Harvard Review staff and others at another gig in the late 80’s and 90’s. There is WAY more there, and since the press didn’t do their job last time around the story is probably going to attach somewhat, especially if D insiders want to take Obama down.
Perry spaced and killed himself on national TV. It doesn’t happen every day and while running for office is hard, doing the job is even harder. The press is now on Perry like Clinton on an intern, or on Huma in case your confused which Clinton I’m referring to in the simile.
Perry’s now the news, and that’s the way it happened. It’s why an aspirin factory got bombed during the Lewinski scandal.
Cain is still up in the polls, not because he’s got better ideas, but because he’s NOT ROMNEY. Nobody trusts Romney, and nothing is going to change that. I like the answer Romney gave on the housing mess to Bartiromo though. Ballsy.
Gingrich, to me as a conservative, is unelectable for a lot of different reasons. I think he represents the old GOP, and as far as the old GOP goes, they might as well replace the elephant on the logo with a donkey. Karl Rove is dead as far as being a legitimate conservative voice goes. One of the knives in Cain’s back is Rove’s.
As for Cain, the very weak reed I cling to is that of all the people running, I think Cain could pick the best cabinet. That counts for a great deal. I think if Cain got in there he’d try to run the place like a business, at least to start. It’s a total assumption based on his success running Godfather’s Pizza, but that’s no mean feat.
Pizza is one of the toughest businesses in the economy to run because of the low barriers to entry, the low margins, the high head count, and the high cost of marketing.
He did it. You can’t do it without picking good people to run it for you. Not something that big.
It’s a damn weak field. I really wished that governor down in MS would have run, name slips my mind, ironically.
Anyway, the political discourse is agreeing with you. Perry’s gaffe, however, was better news because it was significant, unforced, and unequivocal. The air has been leaking out of the Cain story for a few days now, and starting actually to backfire. As such, it’ll be there for the general election for any opportunist that wants to wink, nudge, and suggest that Cain’s a groper.
Doesn’t matter whether its true. It made the paper, so there must be something to it, and even though that’s dead wrong, that’s how the mouthbreathers that vote will see it.
There's a group that continues to believe the women despite they have no proof/witnesses and some have a history of filing false harassment allegations. That Atlanta/CBS article about the “lying software” was quite interesting and has a 95% accuracy rate.
Add Bill Curtis’ comments that Bialeck had a “history” while at CBS/Chicago.
Yet these C4P simply refuse to acknowledge the above and now attack cain for calling Pelosi “Princess”. To top it off, some have said my posts are offensive to them. So stating factual reality is offensive now? Good grief!!!
I've long been a strong Palin supporter (even before she was picked for VP), but these Cain attackers either are feminazis that hate all men and will support women even when they are scamming an innocent man. Or they are racists that inherently reject a Conservative black American.
