Is Herman Cain Serious?

Featured Replies

Mr Cain and his team do not help matters when they go on TV stating that the son of the latest accuser works for Politico which happens to be the site that broke the story.

 

Two problems:

 

1. He doesn't work for Politico.

2. He isn't related to the accuser.

 

Train wreck of a team IMO.

Sounds like they need to stick to deep-dish vs. thin crust issues.

I'm never comfortable with the feeding frenzy that takes place with an issue like this. One says it happened and then many more come forth. It's really easy to say "it happened because so many are saying it happened" or "Where were these people 10 years ago? Why now?"

 

Ugly situation regardless if true or not.

 

While not as extreme, obviously, as the Penn St. and Catholic Church cases, there are some similarities at play in that you have victims who were afraid at the time to come forward because of the difficult and stressful nature of challenging a powerful institution/person. Strength in numbers.

This lady never was afraid to come out in the past. This isn't her first rodeo, she has accused other supervisors of harassment prior to this. Add in that she recent filed for bankruptcy...............

Good point, however, the Penn St. incident was reported through the chain of command and no action was taken. There is a difference and I find it to be an unfair comparison. Given this lady's past I'd take "she was afraid at the time to come forward" with a shot of penicillin. I'd like to know what evidence she has to support her accusation before election and I hope I speak for his voters as well. We wouldn't want that type of person in office even though I doubt he will win the primary.

I don't see Herman Cain as President, but it is getting ridiculous with the ridicule that is being put forth against him. Its truly disgusting.

 

Just a few comments.

 

“We’re going to see how open the GOP is to this black — their ‘new black friend’ when they find out he is harassing blonde women as opposed to black women. That sort of thing of black sexuality — predatory black sexuality. Very frightening in this country, still. Very threatening. So we’ll see how that plays out."

 

and "He seems willing to say anything in order to curry white favor."

 

and "The people that he needs to win over in order to win a primary, those people do not want to hear from a black man who's aggressive, assertive, angry. They want to hear from a man who is assimilated, calm, measured."

 

and my favorite " I think he makes that white Republican base of the party feel OK, feel like they are not racist because they can like this guy. I think he is giving that base a free pass. I think they like him because they think he's a black man who knows his place."

 

Not surprising, most of this comes from the commentators from msnbc. Seriously? How low can they sink? Pathetic. Its no wonder why msnbc is lower than dirt in the ratings.

Makes you wonder what side is really full of racist. Look I don't know if Cain is presidential material or not, apparently that didn't matter 3 years ago but it does now, but the attacks on him are sad.

I consider myself to lean more conservative, so to be fair, I prefer "assimilated, calm, measured" to "aggressive, assertive, angry" in my white people as well. :D

 

MSNBC? Did you really feel that it was necessary to tell us where the comments were from? I'm guessing pretty much everyone who read them figured that after reading the first one. Pretty typical from them. :rolleyes:

 

I think one of their biggest fears is that the nation will find out that the entire GOP isn't racist.

 

A black man who knows his place? Yeah...I'm sure a tried and true, black-hating racist would consider leading in the polls for a GOP Presidential nomination the rightful place of a black man. Come on. Do they even think about this stuff?

Incendiary comments without question.

 

Are we assuming one of the MSNBC hosts said this?

Cain's fundraising has shot through the roof over the last month.

I was glad to see Mr. Cain retract his "Princess Nancy" comment. We need to keep these debates at an intelligent level and not stoop to those who get their kicks by having others insulted. Disagree with her all day long if you want but let's remember to be respectful. Same with whomever made the "General Axelrod" comments.

 

If your only hope to gain favor is by snide remarks you're not a legit candidate for the POTUS.

I was pleased that the candidates quit attacking each other Wednesday night, besides Cain's Princess comment Hopefully that will carryover.

As I said previously remove the live audience and a lot of that will go away.
