Yes, we wanted an outsider in the guise of a Herman Cain but we also wanted someone that shows some FIGHT, that gets out ahead of the game and that hires COMPETENT campaign staff. I feel for your disappointment in watching your guy go down. I too had high hopes for his candidacy.

The media had little to do with Cain’s unraveling. I was highly skeptical of the first three women who came forth with flimsy evidence. They indeed may have been paid by the Obama campaign (Axelrod) but I still want to hear a rousing denial or a convincing explaination of this latest imbroglio. And I’m still waiting. The longer I wait the less I believe that candidate Cain is clean and pure and will survive this episode.

Perhaps next time a little less emotional attachment to your candidate and the let-down wont be as painful. Just a thought.

Appreciate your comments. That being said..you and I and all the couch potato quarterbacks don’t know what Cain has in mind for tomorrow. Right? I expect that his lawyer and his lawyer’s investigators are busy today.

So your solution is to pick a candidate offering you little cause for attachment? Like who? Is Romney emotionally distant enough for you? There is no love lost there at all. Sounds like bad advice to me. How about we pick the *best* candidate -- not the one the media would have us believe is the only one electable -- of the candidates available and actually try sticking with that candidate for a change? Is Perry, Gingrich, Romney, or Huntsman more conservative than Cain? more of a Washington outsider? more successful in business? more willing to redesign the IRS? How about less susceptible to climate change hooey? Less amenable to illegal immigrant amnesty? Less inclined to continue health care mandates? Clearly they *all* pale in comparison to Cain in all these arenas? So why on Earth waste any further time with them?
