Everything that SOB Obummer touches is fraudulent.

I love Cain, but he is done. If you can’t see that, you haven’t been watching politics and the media very closely. I know these are basically trumped up, no substance stories. But doesn’t matter to the 80% of Americans who get their news through regular sources. All they have heard is Cain committed sexual harassment, and that he took illegal campaign contributions.

And of course it is a big time media double standard. But doesn’t matter. Just like the hits on Palin have stopped her from running as a viable candidate. The media is now doing the same thing to Cain. We can say all day, it’s because the media is scared of Cain (and they are). But doesn’t matter. He had over a week to prepare for this. He knew the story was coming out, even before Politico asked him about it over a week ago. Shows his campaign is pretty amateur to not be prepared for when the story broke.

Sad day for us conservatives. But stop deluding ourselves. Cain was going to peak and fall back during the next couple of months anyway. He doesn’t have the organization and backing to win the primaries. Yes, he may be tied or leading in polls. But that won’t be what gets him over the top. You have to have a top notch political organization, that knows how to run a ground game in each state. If Cain were a liberal democrat (like Obama), he might pull it off. Because the media would never highlight his gaffs and failure to answer basic policy questions. But they will with Cain or any conservative.

The Cain party is over. All today’s media stories did was cost him any shot of being VP. He was never going to get the nomination.
