Didnt some speculate that possibly Romney played some part in bringing down Cain?
At least the establishment that appears to be mostly is behind Romney didn’t do anything to help Cain.

I don’t know if there is direct evidence, however what we CAN say is that the water carriers for Romney in the Talk Show Circuit were constantly stoking the first that the libDems/Obama Machine started—as Herman Cain was an incredible threat-through Politico on Herman Cain and then through Gloria Allred, et al on Herman Cain. Romney may not have approved of it or known of it, but he was a direct beneficiary. People come to mind like Karl Rove, Laura Ingraham (especially), etc. I will NEVER EVER forget those people’s words, innuendos, and pressure on the air on Cain to drop out, building up a non-scandal into something huge enough to damage his family and himself...all on behalf of their favorite chess piece, Mitt Romney. The whole sordid thing stinks then and stinks now today. The least Herman Cain could do now is endorse somehow who was way arms’ length away on that contrived fiasco and did not make political benefit out of it at the time, over and above what was necessary as a competitor. At any rate, Herman Cain often said that political power is best when it comes from the PEOPLE, so in that regard, this post is presented, so that he can truly here the voice of the People, first and foremost the people out there who helped get him as far as he got, he should listen to us first, and ignore any GOP Beltway Establishment in-kind emoluments or promises of emoluments that might be floating out there at this time, and stick with a True Conservative when he finally does endorse.
