The “closet” of Herman Cain is like a Sunday picnic compared to what is in the closet of Bill Clinton (rape, indecent exposure, sexual harassment, perjury, molestation to name a few). From what I saw all Cain did was exuberant friendliness towards attractive women. Nobody accused him of molestation, indecent exposure, or rape. And all those women had connections to Chicago politics.
I’m under no illusion that the left will treat any conservative candidate fairly,
or will report without hypocrisy, and treat any transgressions of conservatives like they would those of Clinton.
Of course there is a double standard.
The only way out of it is if someone on the right were to buy out some of the left wing media entities.
Until then its a fact that the playing field is on a slope.
But Republicans, like Caesar's wife, must be above suspicion; otherwise the media will flay them alive.
Which is why any R candidate, facing that kind of question needs to respond with “I will answer your question as soon as you ask HRC why she and her political minions destroyed the reputations of all the women her husband raped, abused and assaulted.”
