” - - - 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 for #2 and we all should be
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.
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.
