Looks like Newt is getting “Cained.” I heard Dick Morris say the left destroyed Cain and they will try with Newt but everyone already knows everything they need to know about Newt and it will not work.
Your post #38 correctly sums up the situation.
I agree, and Newt will be far more adept at fending this off than Cain, who wasn’t used to being thrashed by the “media.” I never believed the crap leveled against Cain, but his handling of the accusations was clumsy. Newt will take the fight right back at the propagandists.
Yes, a couple of differences. One, it was new "news" as it related to Herman and his public persona. Two, Herman's campaign was completely inept in how it responded to the smears. I expect that Newt will respond clearly, definitively and convincingly, the first time.
