RE: Of course he isn’t. But if he is naive enough to fall for that trick from the media, he is too naive to successfully run
Need we be reminded that he successfully turned around two failed franchises to make them profitable again and was at the forefronf of the battle against Hillarycare ( which eventually stopped it )? That’s being naive?
I am not comparing the standing of thje two, but I think, it goes tot he heart of the attitude we all have when it comes to pur candidates -— WE ANTT THEM TO BE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY, KNOWING THAT THEY ARE NOT. If Ronald Reagan made mistakes in his career ( and they were plenty ), Herman Cain will also.
Until yesterday, Cain was the ONLY candidate for me. I’ll wait and see how he deals with this.
Well, sure. But I hope that Cain will learn from his mistakes, as Reagan did. And the first step is to be made aware of the mistake.
I know that pointing out Cain's error here will hurt him, and I regret that. But it will do no one any good if we all just look the other way and pretend it didn't happen, or if we just blame the interviewer.
All politicians, even the ones we like, must be held accountable. The trick is to hold your favorites accountable without damaging them too much in the process.
