Great post bray.
As usual we are up against the huge double standard foisted upon us by the DBM.
If a Republican is even accused of sexual misconduct its enough for 90 articles to be written by the far left wing blogosphere hit jobbers aka Politico.
With all due respect to two great contributors to this vibrant forum, I have a different take on this. I think the scandal is immensely HELPING Cain.
It has given he and his supporters a nifty way to play that oldie but goodie the Race Card. It’s even given his backers a reason to compare him to Clarence Thomas (as if!) though there is not one thing in common between them, or the accusations, EXCEPT RACE.
So, here was a semi-nobody who couldn’t get nominated in Georgia to run for Senate not only moving up the polls for the Republican presidential nomination but now being heralded as a victim of the Demovik plantation thing, like Thomas or Condi Rice—I mean, this is Instant Stature for a guy who was a fill-in talk show host this time last year.
Herman Cain was a candidate a couple weeks ago. Now, he’s a CAUSE.
(But beware: causes eventually become industries and finally rackets.)
Good point. Also he is pocketing millions in his campaign fund as well.
Oh I agree, this has backfired as people who hate the media bias are rallying around him. It has done the same as it did for Palin when people realize how unfair this phony story is.
Pray for America
Your take my friend is right on the money!!!! See, i think demographics. Cain = equals significant Black votes, Cain = equals significant Hispanic votes, Cain = equals massive numbers of White votes, Cain = significant, across the board minority votes, Cain = massive numbers of male votes, Cain = significant numbers of female votes, Cain = equals massive defeat for Obama & the Democrat Party!!!!
Couple Cain with either Gingrich or Rubio, and you get a devastating destruction of the Democrat party. Cain is the real “Obama & Democrat party nightmare”. Obama could care less about Mitt Romney. Obama would love to run against, soul brother Mitt Romney!!! You know what, after viewing Romney speaking in DC last week, fact is, Romney is boring. Multiple folks in the audience hit forty winks whilst he was yaking his boring delivery!!!
You are right that he is now a CAUSE. I would add that for people who like him he is a DOUBLE CAUSE.
I like him and I know you don't, but I hope you can take some pleasure in the SECONDARY cause which is the further devastation of the Marxist Media and the Establishment Political Class and their power.
I get a two-fer if he wins the whole thing. I get to pick my own candidate instead of being crushed by enemies of my country, and I see the real beginning of victory over those MSM/Political Class enemies.
BTW I would vote for your guy (I know it's not Romney) if necessary and take a partial victory on the second issue.
