Read my tagline. It is coming. Just watch. Even Fox will have a hand in it if they can. I have seen this in too many election cycles, particularly vis a vis Duncan Hunter four years ago, when he was even ahead of either McCain or Huckabee or Giuliani in accumulated convention delegates (from Wyoming as I recall) and they skilfully found a way to shut him out of the debates. They shut out Alan Keyes and he got arrested over it. Cain might be polling lets say, third in some state, and they will try to keep him out of further debates. Where they could not have it as a Romney-Perry dual which was their narrative (because Perry stepped in it one too many times), they would convert it to Romney-Gingrich dynamic, and start excluding the others. It is coming for SURE. They have already printed up the “disinvite” letters for sure, just have not dated them yet. Corrupt system. Blackouts. Fox News is a part of it too. Screw them.

I see. So you are “concerned”. Right?

Thanks. Your post has boosted my failing hopes.

We are in such dire circumstances and the establishment hacks want to keep going down the same road. I think Herman Cain is one who can get us back on the right track. I’m afraid he will be destroyed, and with him, one of our last chances to fix this country.

Duncan Hunter four years ago, when he was even ahead of either McCain or Huckabee or Giuliani in accumulated convention delegates (from Wyoming as I recall) and they skilfully found a way to shut him out of the debates.

They set rules that only candidates with delegates would participate in their debate. Then they proceeded to exclude Hunter despite his delegates and included media favorites like McCain despite his lack of delegates.

The problem is that few "conservatives" have the moral fiber to stand up for what's right if what's right might cause problems with their chosen candidate.

It’s all over the news about the book signing. Anyway, his response was that he was trying to help her “financially” and that she was a “friend”. His ability to judge character of those he surrounds himself with is undeniably questionable using his own words. Just my opinion as I am sorely disappointed in his ability to judge character.

Only the gullible fans of Cain believe that he is guilty

Post#60 is an example

Essentially, what you are saying is trust the guy - Cain.

Sorry, but I gave up that naivete with Jimmy Carter.

If he does not clearly refute the White allegations, I have to assume they are true, & therefore Cain is an adulterer, a public liar (a poor one at that), & a hypocrite - not fit to be President.

If he wants my vote, he's got some explaining to do, & all this about staying above it all is pure weasel BS, to me.

I am not impressed, & his recent drop in the polls suggest many others are not impressed, either.

Does it matter? The book signing gives pause in addition to the messages. I suspect there is much more. Nevertheless, his ability to determine character of those he surrounds himself with is disconcerting in my humble opinion. His response was that she was a friend, and that he was trying to help her financially. Why would someone put themselves in a position with someone of such low moral fiber?

The day Fox News hired Whoraldo was the day I quit taking them seriously.

Someone is coordinating these attacks. Probably the White House.

Smells like the Chicago smear machine à la Axelrod and Rahm Ballerina Emmanuel

I guess the message we are being sent by this Political/Media Establishment lynching of Cain is "No decent, honorable outsiders need apply"

That is the way it looks like and it's a shame

I'm even starting to change my opinion.

Sorry for being so blunt, but all that proves is that you are weak.

This is leftist EVIL, and it shouldn't affect your opinion.

(btw, Cain had no knowledge of one of the 'floozies,' and this last one was someone he and his wife were helping out financially. Not exactly indictments of his character, wouldn't you agree??)

Discernment, LoveUSA. Discernment.

I got an e-mail from Cain last night, and he most certainly is not quitting.

However, he IS asking for prayer.

I find it very odd and suspicious that after 40+ years of marriage, business and public spotlight that every single accuser is from a short period of time that Cain worked with the restaurant association. Nobody else from any time in his long career.

If you think the elected US officials are totally amoral opportunist scumbags...think about how much worse all the foreign officials REALLY ARE.

Point is...if Cain can’t handle the heat in this kitchen - he stands absolutely NO CHANCE in the world.

I agree we need honorable people with integrity and principles to step up to lead. The current crop of options just isn’t worthy of our vote.

BTW...there was an investigator that reviewed Cain’s responses and used software to analyze his statements and everything indicated Cain was being honest - we need that software to analyze every politician’s statements and put the analysis on the web so we can all decide who we want to trust.
