Slime time

The Leftist news media is happily predicting the demise of Herman Cain’s campaign for the Republican nomination. It’s what they do: Collect slime and spread it on and play it up like it was the most important thing. Then sit back and ballpark how effective it’s been.

Not that Cain hasn’t hurt himself. Despite insisting he’s going to hang in there, even as his principal Tea Party backers bail. He should have seen this stuff coming and prepared better. Always amazes me that any Republican candidate—especially a black man who presents an obviously stronger racial challenge to Obamalot than any white man—could imagine the Dem media would treat him/her fairly.

With or without hidden baggage, but especially with. Never has happened. And never will. As a surprised John McCain found out in 2008, objectivity and fairness are not the Fifth Column’s game.

UPDATE: Ann Coulter has a good take on this: [T]his is how liberals dirty you up when they’ve got nothing…”

And then, a day after I posted the above, Cain bailed out of the race.

Cain’s bimbo eruptions

Of course Herman Cain is right when he says a Democrat machine is out to get him. And he’s right to fight it. That political media machine is out to get all Republicans, particularly those who would dare try to deny the deceitful (and pro-Islamist) Obamalot a second term.

As for Cain’s women accusers (and their lawyers such as Democrat Gloria Allred holding no-questions-allowed pressers) there are no more of them nor are their accusations (notably without any proof) any more impressive than what Bill Clinton was once accused of and survived.

Of course the Democrat media largely was on Clinton’s side (calling his problems “bimbo eruptions”) while they emphatically are not on Cain’s—or any other Republican’s. But most Republican primary voters know that and are unlikely to be swayed by this latest example of the media’s preference for bias.

UPDATE:  Indeed, the largely Republican crowd at Wednesday night’s debate in Michigan cheered Cain on when he said the attacks were “unfounded accusations” and that voters were more interested in fixing the bad economy than “character assassination.”
