If I were accused of sexual harassment, I’m not sure I would want Wood sticking up for me...

None of these jokers has the temperament, intelligence, or ability to be President of the United States.

They are all (minus Romney and Paul) light-years ahead of the bum sitting in the Oval Office today.

Life is too short to play second fiddle to a media consumed by unproven sexual peccadilloes.

Excellent.

Was Block successful in vaulting a neophyte politician to the top of the polls heap? I rest my case.

However with money pouring in, Cain could well afford more professionals running the campaign.

I will not allow the media or the GOP to determine who I vote for.

Dat's about it. It's not about law, this is just blowing smoke. Politics, pure and simple. A good ol' fashion' smearin', just like 1800. This is big-boy politics and it goes 15 rounds, so candidates have to be set to slug it out the whole way. Without a doubt HC is 0% naive. He is using field expediency, learning on the fly and fast, cuz this is a one-shot deal for him and he's gonna nail it. I'm not worried, the Cain plane is off the runway and gaining altitude.

We absolutely can see the Repub establishment NOT wanting to work for Cain in 2013. They want a good ol' boy whose been playin' ball with them for years. They - and the Dems - do not see the iceberg that America is heading towards. I know America can take an enormous punishment and get up off the mat. But the establishment does not have a creative mindset so they are blind to what could befall us. They also are totally ignorant of real-world finance - the real stuff - so they have no appreciation for our financial woes (I don't want to even say any more about that). They think the economy will work itself out. That is what they really actually are basing their sleep at night on. Their minds are completely stuck in business-as-usual mode. The reason why the stay in denial of the real problems is because they have no idea about where to even find a form to fill out to borrow the money to buy a clue about a solution to the financial pit the U.S. and the rest of the world is in.

HC has said some great things, i.e., he may start making the right moves if elected - at least something way better than the establishment of either party would do. Trouble is, those are politically difficult moves cuz normally the lobbyists don't read the politician's legislation, they write it and give it to the politician's staff to read. So the establishment machines of both parties look at the prospect of HC being elected President like the prospect of them going home and having castor oil for supper - very hard to take. Lot's of work and thinking and political risk instead of 4 more years of standard borrow and spend AMAP in your home state.

They prefer the "professional". The politician whose worked his way up the ladder and everyone basically then knows exactly how the lobbying will go for the next 4 years. It's like playing 4 quarters of football against a team you've played a million times instead of travelling to Australia and playing a bunch of Aussie outback-monsters in their own wacky style of football where they bounce the dang ball, embarass our team and we get all banged up.

IMHO, there is noooo need for FReeps to get all excited; this is just normal flak. The real media challenge is the 7th and 8th years of a Presidency, when if the libs hate a conservative POTUS, they do everything they can to make them look bad especially so the VP does not get elected in the next cycle. HC keeps growing, getting better acclimated every day.

The perfect candidate doesn't exist. If conservatives allow the media/elitecon complex to pick off everyone but their king of the prom romney because of fear that HC was called a few names by a couple wealthy socialists, then HC has more guts in his little finger than we have in our whole body.

Cain is still the man of the moment, the one who can beat Romney and the only outsider candidate at the top tier.

I don’t think he’s as good as Sarah Palin, but he’ll do for me.

Lin Wood is exactly what Cain needs, the proverbial " pit bull in a brooks brothers suit" .

Newt’s divorces are old news. Nobody cares. He’s been married to Calista now for what, 11 years?

Wonder if Gloria Allred ever heard of over zealous Mike Nifong and The Duke Lacrosse case ?

" Cain with his media attack dog at his side said to everyone that it you report an anonymous source second removed from an anonymous source said this and that about Cain, be ready to prove it in a court of law. Cain is on the attack and Wood smells blood in the water. "

Mike Nifong his accusers and Gloria Allred in a court of law.

" Wood would be willing to do it for free, for the simple reason that high profile cases are millions of dollars of future business.
Plus, he’d get a really nifty write-off. "

and a chance to Mike Nifong the witch. i.e. get her disbarred and discredit her and Cain's accusers....

I really hope that was a double entendre, or else I am a really sick puppy for laughing at that.
