Regardless of your views on Herman Cain as a candidate, you surely must admit the way the media and establishment hacks have reacted is laughable. First, the polling data. Herman Cain is at the top of the national average.
That Cain is on top is not up for dispute and should be obvious to any reporter who does his/her job from at least a half objective view. But that isn’t what’s happening. (He gives numerous examples of news sources referring to Romney as front-runner.)
Most journalists and GOP elitists are refusing to acknowledge is that this campaign is uncharged territory. (He goes off on Karl Rove for a few paragraphs.)
Like most political establishment hacks, Rove is old school. He’s operating as if it’s 2000 and a movement of conservatives isn’t real. And worse, he’s doing so on behalf of a candidate who is pro-gun control, pro-choice, and pro-government mandated healthcare.
2008 should have taught this gang a harsh lesson. If you present the American public with a moderate like John McCain or Mitt Romney, you’re not going to get an energetic reaction. 2010 should have been the biggest lesson of them all. The movement defeated countless establishment candidates and took a major chunk out of the existing power structure in Washington.
Now here we are in 2012, watching the political establishment fight against that same movement. Either they can’t remember what just happened, or they refuse to accept it as reality.
I’m gratified to see my personal fave, Rasmussen, is really close to the average. I’m not surprised ABC/WaPo and CNN show Romney on top. They skew their polls to show what the DNC wants them to show and the DNC wants to run against Mayo On White Romney so they can make the race about Obama’s race … again. -CtH
Comments Off on Cain’s ahead, but GOP elites won’t admit it
November 03, 2011 Media Research Center report by Scott Whitlock – Over a period of just three and a half days, NBC, CBS and ABC have developed an insatiable hunger for the Herman Cain sexual harassment story, devoting an incredible 50 stories to the allegations since Monday morning. In contrast, over a similar period these networks mostly ignored far more substantial and serious scandals relating to Bill Clinton.
I like Herman Cain a lot, but I have had some reservations about him being president, less because of his lack of actual government experience (business is very political and he’s proved he’s good at that!) than because of his lack of military experience.
But when I saw this bumper sticker, I went “Oh Yeah!”
Also, Coulter is her usual satirically witty and right-on-target self about the current attempt to smear Cain’s reputation: http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=363249
TOURE:CAIN IS NOTHING MORE THAN A BLACK,MINSTRELSY ENTERTAINER
And you,sir,are an angry little race-baiting twerp who is using up valuable space and oxygen.You feel you have to make outrageous statements to get noticed.I had a bantam rooster like you–smallest critter in the barnyard who made a lot of noise to get noticed.We chopped his head off and ate him.
She’s doing an interview with Greta.Hope she doesn’t ask her her thoughts on being married to a sexual harasser and if she plans on divorcing him.You and I both know that’s the first thing the presstitutes would ask.
A Gingrich-Biden debate would look like a guppy vs. a piranha.Newt would eat him alive.
LAWRENCE O’DICKHEAD:PEDDLING ‘PURE HATRED’ HAS MADE RUSH LIMBAUGH A VERY RICH MAN
It’s talent on loan from God.Something you’ll never have from something you’ll never believe in.You’d give your testicles(if you had any) for a fraction of his audience.Now go away.
When I was looking for a graphic to illustrate the Broaddrick section, I saw a blog about how “right wing extremists” were so over the top in their outrage over her rape charges since, golly, the statute of limitations had run out already. Wow.
And get a load of the biased photoshop TIME used … Thomas has his lips pursed in that way people do when they’re trying NOT to say something while Hill is posed in a way that makes her look fearful of him. Sheesh.
It just boggles my mind that if a Democrat has been charged with rape, it’s all yawns and crickets, but if a Republican maybe indulged in the kind of sexually-laced, office water-cooler jokes that were standard when I was working, OMG! he should be drawn and quartered. It’s SO hypocritical!
More importantly, it does a serious disservice to the real victims out there.

OBAMA’S BITE-SIZE INITIATIVES REMINISCENT OF CLINTON REELECTION
I disagree;after the 1994 massacre,Clinton contented himself with riding the dot.com bubble,raking in cash from useful idiots and finding creative uses for cigars.Morris convinced him he needed to sign welfare reform after he vetoed it 3 times to keep selling the White House and scoring girls.Clinton was pragmatic;Obama is deluded.
