The REAL Cain Scandal (video cringe alert...has NOTHING to do with Gloria Allred)
Michelle Malkin ^ | November 14, 2011 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 11/14/2011 2:50:42 PM PST by St. Louis Conservative

It has nothing to do with anything Gloria Allred has her hands in.

It’s his continued lack of preparedness on, and familiarity with, basic domestic and foreign policy issues. Sorry, Cain fans. Tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. But like Rick Perry, Herman Cain is just not ready for prime time. The real Cain scandal: He can barely form a coherent thought on Libya when put on the spot and garbles collective bargaining 101 facts.

Watch for yourselves. Take anti-depressants or a stiff drink first:

On Libya (listen for the part where he excuses his hemming and hawing by explaining that he has “a lot of stuff twirling around in his head”)…

There are plenty of conservative politicians who are articulate and informed on the issues and do not flub questions. Why should we settle for someone who is? You want to win, don’t you?

I don’t care. I’ll still trust Cain over the RINO’s any day of the week.

LOL. Like Herman Cain is the only “real” conservative and/or Republican. Everyone not named Herman Cain is a RINO!! That is a cult-like statement. It would serve you well to be a little more objective about the primary process. Herman Cain is just a man - like everyone else running.

I agree if Cain is sideswiped by the MSM then Bachmann.

Romney, Gingrich, and Perry are already disqualified. If you convince me that Cain is toast as well, who is left? I suppose, to answer my own question, that I would then have to wait for the inevitable third party candidates and hope one is a conservative.

Will Hannity be discussing this on his show tonight? Or ever? Will Rush or Levin be defending this? There will be so much spinning that you'll smell rubber.

I would ask her and anyone that knocks Cain this question. Who is your candidate and why should we believe anything that they say? Cain is an accomplished CEO. He is trained to find problems, gather info, find a solution, and then implement it. With the other viable candidates, their expertise ends with telling the voters what they want to hear. Actually implementing the solutions is dependent on political expediency. Hence, we have the mess that we have. Cain may not have perfect answers to every question, but he is a very intelligent man and I trust that he will find those answers, and unlike the others, he will do something about it.

Why do people throw around the RINO word for every little thing they agree with? RINO has become ineffective because of the everybody is a RINO abuse.

Seeing our side pick apart our own people hyper-analyzing every single sentence they utter is going to kill our party and reelect Obama.

Damn straight. This primary has been the most sickening display of the most childish behavior I have ever seen here.

Some posters actually seem to relish in destroying every candidate we have....makes me wonder what is really happening.

Seems some have also lost sight of the fact there are many lurkers/moderates here who are not political junkies to get the Conservative take, I can only imagine how they must leave here shaking their heads with a highly negative opinion of us. Great way to win them over, eh?

No wonder we're known as the party of stupid.

I am not going to jump off the Cain Train yet. This just doesn’t look like a major screw-up to me.

Could he have been smoother, sure. But where/when/why did we ever come up with the idea that the candidate we choose must have an encyclopedic knowledge of every issue, along with a well-thought out, nuanced plan that is not only better than anyone elses’ but will always be delivered in carefully measured tone and diction?

It’s impossible that any one person would be able to be so perfect. Cain’s strength is his ability to assemble information quickly, cut through the nonsense and find the root of the problem, then come up with a solution that works.

We need a genuine leader as President. Cain is that. He’s not perfect by any means, but neither is anyone else, and he is still head and shoulders above anyone else in the race — in my not so humble opinion, anyhow.

Cain would destroy Obama in the debates. I WANT to see that. Gingrich or Romney would hand it to obuma. Perry is a dead duck.

Cain is the solution not only to obuma, but also to obumunism itself. Read the article.

Oh and I am for Cain. So don’t call me a RINO.

We will see.

Newt's ice cream cone will be melting soon once the MSM starts bringing out his luggage.

If Perry starts coming up in the Polls we will see his dirty accusers coming forward as well.

Maybe we need a eunuch for President. One without a brain, a heart or a passion for the Constitution.

I stand corrected. Not everyone else is a RINO.... that said, he's still my choice because I like his directness, I like that he's a relative "outsider" to the Beltway, and I like the idea of a simplified tax code.

I'll take someone with a few human gaffes any day over some slick politician who uses nothing but poll-tested talking points all the time.

The more folks cast dispersions on Mr. Cain the more I support him.

It ain’t over til it’s over.
