” - - - he will lose support of folks weak at heart - - - “
Cain will also lose support of the GULLIBLE.
An excellent gullibility index are the MSM sponsored opinion polls. The change in poll numbers reveal the gullibility of the alert audience to a baseless news”story,” otherwise know as a rumor, planted story, fabrication, or simply a lie.
While we are taught to understand the concept of INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY, we usually take the easy way out by believing without question only what we hear. Hearing is easier than thinking.
The MSM in their 24/7 rush-to-judgment journalism hire only gullible talking heads, and thus decrease the needless bother of requiring actual facts.
(Bill “The Spin Stops Here” O’Reilly is an excellent example of a gullible talking head, who said last night on his FOX “The Factor” show, “Cain is done.” It would warm my heart to read that in 2013 President Herman Cain invited gullible Bill O’Reilly to a Rose Garden TEA Party.)
This results in more news”stories” per hour, and thus higher ratings and higher advertising rates. Time is money, and money comes from advertising minutes.
BTW, preform this test yourself: Which is faster: 1.) reach a conclusion based only on the rumor that you hear; or 2.) withhold judgement until irrefutable facts are gathered to convincingly support a rumor?
I am sure a lot better then that arrogant lazy, lying pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave
Especially when he gets excellent advisers
Mine too
I am for #2 and we all should be
I hear you. They can jump in a lake, as far as I am concerned. Greta is the only honest one still working there.
I was one of the very early vocal supporters of Herman Cain. To me this has absolutely NOTHING to do with whether he was having affairs or is a serial womanizer. THIS IS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH HOW HE HANDLES A CRISIS.
He has failed miserably at managing this and this type of stuff is child’s play compared to Putin, etc...
The only real conservatives in the race are Santorum and Bachman and we better ALL wake up and start rallying support for either one of them because our country won’t stand a chance without them.
Looks like even the old timers are getting sucked in by the Obama/Axelrod approach.
you bring up a very interesting point. Too bad you had to wrap it up with a personal attack.
Well if the 9th commandment isn’t an option, then FReepers who have trashed other good FReepers just because they support another candidate are also going to have to answer to God. So FReepers who have been so nasty this election season should think about that.
It is impressive. Lesser men would have crumbled weeks ago.
The more we see it, the more we think, “Wait! Why haven’t there been any Bimbo Eruptions with Leonid Obama?!”
Patience, my FRiend. It's only been five weeks. It takes time to fabricate evidence.
People trying to knock Herman Cain out said we needed a “vetting process” during the primaries to find out who is the strongest of the contenders. Ironically, this may well come back to bite them. Who knows? OTOH, the man could still throw in the towel, only his wife and his Creator are privy to that, but from all indications, SNS sources, or whatever tonight, his base support is going through the ROOF like it did last bimbo falsehood slander, grassroots people can read through these Obama/Axelrod smears so easily and are not only not fooled by them or their MSM agents, they are highly offended and now in open revolt.
Both of them handle themselves just fine. In fact Rick won two elections in a heavily democratic district in PA. Carville and the DNC machine worked hard to derail Rick and he beat them twice.
The problem is the media.
Cain’s comments on foreign policy are disturbing.
Actually it wasn’t a personal attack, you are hopeless, I am merely pointing it out to you.
I meant it in the purer sense of the word, you are devoid of hope meaning without it, not that you are a bumbling idiot frothing at the mouth as you post....
Cain is going after the liars, & that is exactly what I wanted him to do. Seems I am not the only one who thinks this is the proper route to end this crap, once & for all.
So, you see, I am NOT being manipulated by the media, but simply asking for correct & necessary actions against false allegations.
Now, we will see who is lying, & who is not.
If Cain is exonerated, that will be the end of the dirty tricks against him - he will be immune to further bogus attacks. That will strengthen him & reinvigorate him.
I certainly hope so.
And White's phone records may provide some interesting insights as to who she has been communicating with recently. I wonder how many calls/texts she has had with David Axelrod & the DNC? A thorough investigation of White could yield some REAL dirt - slander, conspiracy, payoffs, etc.
” - - - So, you see, I am NOT being manipulated by the media, but simply asking for correct & necessary actions against false allegations.”
It is my fervent hope that many others have proven themselves to not be gullible to the Cain smear campaign.
