If there were accusations of sexual harrassment against Cain and the NRA did pay out to settle, he should have anticipated that it would come out at some point and had a plan to handle it. If this is Cain’s plan for dealing with a fairly predictable event then I would hate to see Cain “shoot from the hip” on a wholly unexpected event. I hope that everybody’s happy with Romney as the nominee because I don’t think that after this display of political acumen it will be Cain. Based on the lack of simple contingency planning on the part of the Cain people, that may not be a bad thing. Maybe, if we are really lucky, it will be a Romney-Newt ticket that the beltway establishment Republicans can fully support. I can’t wait for that. /s
Agreed—he obviously hadn’t forgotten all about this if he could recall in precise detail a discussion he had about it in 2003.
Agree on Romney, too, though simply OBSERVING that gets you called all sorts of names around here. I do not want Romney as president. I have nothing positive to say about him except I will not support him for nomination, but I will vote for him against Obama.
Romney is an awful, awful choice...except for the alternative.
Gingrich would be a kind of Joe Biden equivalent, someone with DC credibility, but I don’t know if he will be picked—he would overshadow Romney. Hell, anyone will.
