I caught Rush playing this 38 seconds of Obama’s mind leaving the stage, this morning.

It was painful even for one who has had bad feelings about Obama before he became a $inator.

“RUSH: Thirty-eight seconds. Thirty-eight seconds of sheer, total idiocy, confusion, ignorance, whatever you want to say. Thirty-eight seconds of it. I’ll stack that up against anything Rick Perry stumbled on or Herman Cain. That’s June 5th of 2008. And, by the way, that’s right in the midst of Operation Chaos. The Democrat nomination process, primary process is not yet concluded at that point. They’re asking about Iraq. He hasn’t the slightest idea, he hasn’t a clue.”

Why do you say this? Had you already concluded that Cain is unfit, or have you already chosen another candidate?

Rush gets it, and so does Cain. Since when do they video this crap? This wasn't a debate. Candidates usually spend an hour or two with reporter, shooting the sh*t, and then giving their "official" positions on issues. Now they are RECORDING it? Where are the tapes of Obama and Bush doing this? Or other 2012 candidates? This is ridiculous. These are PRINT reporters - PRINT his responses. Cain needs to continue to laugh it up.

At least he is a real conservative. The poor NewtBots on FR are about to be reminded of why Newt aligned himself with Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry on global warming. Those were NOT "stupid mistakes" - that is who Newt Gingrich REALLY is - an Alvin Toffler, world government, "Third Wave" Progressive.

I say it because it wasn’t just an 11 second pause. It was a train wreck in slow motion.

I’ve watched it all and it has not phased me. It is not sterling, spit and polished politics. but Herman Cain is not that.

He considered his answer and then gave it.

Cain is continuing to do well despite this kind of thing because a bunch of us...and growing...trust him and like his style and his positions.

When compared to the cheesy, sleezy lawyer and people Allred is bringing forward, it is obvious to anyone with any sense that it is a hatchet job and not too be believed.

When a man you trust and like is being attacked like this...you rally around and support even more...and that is what has happened.

I expect he will continue to do well.

Despite whatever mis-statements he sometimes makes, we trust him to check it out, get it right, and then move on. We like that he is not a spit and polished pols and believe him to be an honest, down to earth American we can trust...and that’s it in a nutshell.

He will have to gaffe a whole lot worse, and any allegations will have to be backed up by indisputable proof for him to lose my support.

The video was backup for a for-print interview, to ensure accuracy of the transcript.

Cain wasn’t acting for the camera; he was working on a reasonable response that he knew would appear in print.

THAT is the “context.”

I hate the media, they knew exactly what they were doing...the question is, ‘whose orders are they following?’

None of the other candidates would have allowed the discussion to be taped. Just a rookie mistake. Cain is beginning to self destruct...and I was a donor.

What time was this sit-down on Monday? Have not been able to nail that down. Herman said he was having difficulty focusing. Was this "interview" around the time of the Allred "ex-boyfriend" press conference? Wouldn't surprise me if the newsroom has a bank of TVs ... but I don't know if the events overlapped. If so, might explain Herman being distracted.

Anyway, it was painful but far less significant than his enemies suppose. On the other hand, I don't buy the "lack of sleep" excuse put out by the campaign - I believe I read months ago that Cain boasts about only needing a few hours' sleep a night.
