Herman Cain: Cain't Run, Cain't Hide.

NYT
Shaft:  Herman "Super Fly" Cain boards the media train Monday to deflect sex harassment charges. Wash Post posts more than 3,000 comments on Cain.

Let Herman be gone Eugene Robinson Wash Post: "So many reasons to oppose this loopy candidacy, so little time."

CNN onetime Eliot Spitzer punching bag -- syndicated columnist Kathleen Parker:

Cain is hardly the first political candidate to suffer this kind of scrutiny. But a faulty memory is a weak defense when the national media is chasing your history. As soon as humanly possible, Cain needs to find out what was in the complaints and settlements and get the facts on the table. If he doesn’t, someone else will.

    <p>The Mainstream Media is completely out of touch with the American Public. Why did Politico wait 10 days to publish this tip from "anonymous source"??? Waiting for Herman Cain to peak so they could knock him off? I would have a beer with Herb ;)

    </p><p>Does Herman Cain (private sector businessman) drink Beer? I don't know but he is smokin.
    </p><p>Does Representative Michelle Bachmann drink Beer? Michelle once attacked her Democrat challenger, stating she would raise taxes on bacon, and beer. Shame on you Tarryl Clark. She probably voted for mandating cervical cancer vaccines for young girls too/ That’s correct Michelle Bachmann is against taxing your bacon.

  2. The faulty memory is a stretch.  If you'd ever been accused of sexual harassment, rightly or wrongly, would you really let it slip your mind?  Come on!  Cain should have been out front from day one.
