I was being somewhat sarcastic about the '"so what".  Infidelity and lying are both wrong and Cain is guilty of both.  I this the best that the Republican party has to offer in the primarys?  NPR said that the best thing, for Democrats, is to have Cain or Romney win because they stand no chance against Obama.  Will nobody step forward to be a gleaming prospect for the Republicans?  The conservatives can't give a solid vote to someone with a different religion or past.

So guilty until proven innocent is your position?  Remember NPR has a very liberal view and they might well put forth their fears and call that the most favorable opponents.  This shouldn't really come as a surprise to anyone that they would make such a claim as it is meant to influence voters in the primaries.  If you observe the type of argument they make you will notice the complete absence in justification for their reasoning and that should strike you as curious.
There are only 10 types of people in the world:  those who understand binary, and those who don't.

I think this phase of the election process is foolish and not serious....the candidates, Perry and Romney, are fighting with each other.
I wish and hope Ron Paul gets close in the final stretch. I read his book "Liberty Defined" .....it was an "eye opener".

Because he is not being honest about it.  People want an honest politician.  Even though in most things they are not.

Just seems odd that two of the people who are all of a sudden accusing him actually have ties to the Obama administration. Just more politics.

Guilty until proven innocent was the method employed at Guantanamo...turnabout shouldn't be fair play for Cain or any politician?  Abrupt, you are the second person that has indicated that NPR is a liberally tainted news station but it seems to allow coverage of all sides.  the same person that slated NPR as Liberal also said the same about the New York Times which to me seems fairly open and on the spot.  I do notice that the media bashes all politicians and that it was a bit worse for people running against Obama but I believe that, if the Republicans had a good representative, they might slant some of that banter in Obama's direction.
