"He once had an awkward moment, just to see how it feels."
Gosh, I loved ya like a viable candidate Herman...first Palin, now this? :(
Good catch. Excellent point.
Cain's personal affairs just distract from his real inability to deliver on policy. People derided Obama for being inexperienced as a less than two year senator. Claimed Palin had the leg up on him thanks to her (abbreviated) governorship. Now Cain comes bumbling along to go up against people with actual experience and he exists so far outside the establishment he can't recall his own policy. And people look at that like a positive!
He doesn't seem to have a strong enough metal model of his own policy. When he gets a question that he did not get specific coaching for he cannot synthesize an coherent answer because his mental model doesn't function well enough. Successful politicians have (what they believe) is a correct world view. Answers go in as inputs; coherent response come out. Just watch Cain's answer on abortion (both should be banned, and it isn't the governments business), on Libya (Hm, well he'd talk to his advisors and have a better handle on the situation). His 9-9-9 plan suddenly has extra exemptions (Zoning proposal).
Three successful governors throw their hats in the ring. Perry blew his own campaign (Oops) and the Mormons draw the ire of Christians who would rather support an adulterer than someone from a different sect, which blows my mind. Of course Romney has his own issues with liberal stances. Huntsman I supported, but he seems to have flamed out completely. I think he lacks the drive.
The Republican primary boiled down to:
2016 hopefully will be more reasonable.
“So. As long as its legal - you dont care if a candidate cheats on his wife?”
Bill Clinton cheated on his wife. The part I cared about was the perjury. No, I do not care where any of these people place their penis. Why you do is beyond me.
“Or if Cain were to be caught cheating with his boyfriend? Thats OK with you?”
It’s NONE OF MY BUSINESS.
“Seriously - you need to take your liberal views to the DUmp.”
Seriously, you need to mind your own damned business. You remind me of Mrs. Kravitz on the old “Bewitched” tv show. “Abna! Abna!!!”
-With a fine history of BEING PLAYED by the press/media like a finely tuned violin.-
I would love to try and explain the direct connection between social liberalism and political liberalism, but you liberals just cannot understand.
You have had such a open mind that your brains have fallen out.
“During the four-month stretch covered by the bill she provided, there were 61 calls or texts exchanged with Cain’s personal cell phone number.”
If I had that happen, I’d get a new cell phone number. Especially if it was from some mad stalker/crazy bitch/someone I barely knew.
“you liberals”
Please do piss the hell off.
Interesting that you bring this up... But speaking of Obama...
I was on an Atlanta TV news website yesterday, and I watched a good bit of this interview with a young man who was apparently sexually abused (one of many) by the Bishop of his Church. All parties are Black.
At the 15:40 minute mark of the interview, the reporter starts asking the young man about a plane. Then the reporter informs the young man that President Obama had flown all around the country in the same plane that the Bishop had flown the young man all around the country in... the same plane that the Bishop had sexually abused the young man in. The young man says, "That would be something to tie him to."
If you watch the interview, look at the young man's face, as he talks about Obama and the plane. It is a very interesting reaction, and much different than his demeanor during the rest of the interview.
The interview is here. Fast forward to the 15:40 minute mark for the start of the plane/Obama comments.
Hum...
And folks her are so ready to give up. Of course some what him out of their way...
Does it matter? either way its hard to explain (and its within the past year or so i understand)
Or a woman with a baby or child comes out of somewhere! Good grief!
you liberals
Please do piss ME the hell off.

Clearly everyone that does not agree with you is a liberal. You take a couple of statements that you do not agree with on one thread and call that FReeper a liberal? You DO know that I’ve been here for several years now? Do you not think that if I were a liberal I would have been zotted by now you jackass? Or do you REALLY believe that the mods are that inept?
I have NO idea what your positions on the issues are but if you were to make a statement that I am more liberal than YOU, well that one is harder to ague with since I don’t know your politics.
But to blanket call someone a liberal based on one disagreement on one subject?
Either you are to the right of Atila the Hun or you are just a first class jackass with no ability to reasonably disagree so you throw the term “liberal” around like lefty blacks play the race card.
I will not be responding to you further because you CLEARLY do not have the intellect nor the temperment to have a discussion without debasing both yourself and the forum.
Looks like the accuser had a “stalking” protective order against her from a business partner...
When this woman had to go to court, being sued, one of the harrassment changes against her and her stalking was with emails and texting...as you said, the first thing that came into my mind was how many were from her and how many were from him. and she mentions nothing about Cain during his fight with cancer, chemo, recovery. Believe me for a long time, he was not flitting around the country meeting her in hotels....If he did, the man has an iron constitution...
A male on male thing involving Obama would sink his re-election. Then again it might not. The Obama machine is clever at turning what is lead into gold. Anyway let keep our fingers crossed
