America certainly needs to impose the right to call for a "no confidence" vote on any elected office at any time.


That would require a constitutional amendment. Do you think it will pas 2/3 of congress and 3/4 of the states?

The Constitution is ignored now anyway.

By the way, wife Gloria Cain will be on "On the Record" tonight on Fox.


On "Fox?" That only means that she is going to tell a lot of lies.

Or she'll stand by her man. because she "knows" her Hermy could never treat other women like that, let alone cheat on her.
And I agree, I wouldn't trust a single thing Fox says.

That was a powerful interview. Herman and Gloria Cain are the real deal, as far as everything I've known so far about them.
There is still a genuine desire in this country to see someone phony

elected, as is usually done, but we'll see what the country decides this time around...

C'mon, the Obamas are the real deal, as well! There is genuine affection between them, and they both obviously love their children.

What amazes me is that you all seem to be fixating on whether or not Herman Cain committed sexual harassment against three or four women sometime in the past. (Although it is interesting that when he ran for Congress in '03, he reportedly made sure that all of his staffers were briefed on the details - details which he now denies ever knowing.)

It was only a few days ago that Cain made the statement that should have dropped him straight out of contention - that one of his major goals as President would be to prevent China from getting nuclear weapons.

Is this staggering level of current ignorance on the part of a man who would lead this nation truly less of a hindrance than a tendency to have made women uncomfortable ten years ago??


Guess who joined Fox News.

Such is the case. There is not even a hint or whiff of untoward sexual behavior on the part of Lord Obama.

This is quite different from the case of Bubba Bill Clinton.

Speaking of which: withdrawing support for Herman Cain was an act of political Onanism.

Maybe he'll go for it again in 2016.
The handwringing on this forum by the left will be in full swing by 2015.....

We'll see. I think he'll be too comfortable in his Fox job to stir himself to run gain.

All of your points are valid, so why not just withdraw your support?

Personally, I always thought that he came across like a cheap and crooked Chicago Alderman*, trying to pander to the working classes in order to remain in office just one more term before retirement.


(*An alderman is a member of a municipal assembly or city council.)

Uh huh, but it'll be worth it to see you all writhe and weep over any potential conservative boogeyman for 2016 even as early as late next year and definitely most of 2015.
One thing's for sure; you won't have Barry O as your lord and saviour this time.
:P

No, we'll have Hillary Clinton as heir to the throne; and she more than has the ovaries for a fight.

You really think so? I thought his telling people to blame themselves if they weren't rich more than made him the enemy of the working class.
But I definitely agree that he came across as cheap and crooked.

Well, there is that ... it is but one rose in a field of manure, imo.
