And how about Rush and Ann's pulling the race card - I think I saw she even pulled out the "High tech lynching" line.



nothing?

Obama is the president and Cain is one of 10 potential nominees so its a little different. I cant give him a pass or comment since there have been zero details released. We have no idea what the complaint gainst him was? Do you have info? I think the major criticism is that he changed his story in a matter of a few hours, pretty lame performance and I think it will hurt him. very few think he has a chance anyway. Did you hear his two different takes on abortion - it was hilarious, he made no sense.
I dont think this rises to the level of John Edwards banging his staff and having an illegimate child while his wife battled cancer but who am I to say. Did you see Perry's speech in new hampshire? Guy was giddy, pretty funny and much more interesting than Cain.

I don't have any more details than you but given that there was a settlement, I'm sure something happened more beyond his holding his hand up to his chin and saying something like your just as tall as my wife. It's hard to rank harrassment but Edwards certainly was as low as you can go. Good point about pres. vs. candidate. Yes, Perry's speech on $/gold and Cain's flip flopping on abortion were funny. I attribute both (and many other mis-statments by candidates/pres.) to the incessant round the clock media coverage.

Come on Paul, lets be realistic and just agree on this...both Perry and Cain suck as canditates. It may be the one time we ever agree.
I think it will be Romney vs Obama and I will reluctantly pull the trigger on the R ticket just so I have the right to complain.

I haven't read an impartial article on the harrassment claims yet, but from the details, it seems like this could have been handled much better by Cain and his people.

The one article I read was from a conservative outlet, so I won't put too much stock in it. But if it's true, it's gonna be bad for him. He won't get the same passes (from voters, not the media) Obama got when he was running for pres.
