He pulls this crap all time. Cain takes reality and spins it into a hypothetical, and then says I can't answer a hypothetical question.

Teabaggers eat that shit up.

Because they have no one to run. Look at the candidates. This is the best they can do. Looks like another 4 years for Obama.

Just like Palin was the Repug answer to Hillary.

13. That was one rousing pile of bullshit there, and beat "In what respect, Charlie"...
by miles. Or words, anyway. I was tempted to feel sorry for the fucker for being hit with a question about something he knew absolutely nothing about. But I resisted that temptation. Easily.

I tried, I really, really tried, to make some sense out of that mess but kept coming back to "If you can't dazzle them with facts, just baffle them with bullshit."

51. *groan* I know. Just how EFFED UP do you have to be to make Ms. Sarah look better?
At least her "in what respect, Charlie?" was about something a bit more abstract and further away in time (Bush doctrine).

THIS fool couldn't answer a question about some shit that was international news a few WEEKS ago.

OMG, And he wants to be president? Its over for Cain. Wait til the Daily Show gets this. And for his sexual harassment: Another woman today? How many do we need? His wife says he has the utmost respect for women. Give me a break. Calls Pelosi princess? He is a womanizer to the utmost. Just because his wife doesn't see it, doesn't mean he's not. Actions speak louder than words. Give it up dude, go flip some pizzas.

You have to be pretty fucking stupid to make Rick Perry look like the smart one.

45. Campaign says Cain was on 4 hrs sleep: "Didn’t say anything wrong or in accurate, it just took him
a while to recall the specifics of Libya.”

That's the understatement of the campaign so far. In fact, he never recalled the specifics of Libya, besides the fact that Ghaddafi was killing people and there was an opposition, which Cain somehow thought we were not getting intelligence about....Cain has actually managed to knock Perry off the "DOOFUS I HAVE NO CLUE" pedestal.

46. Not even close!
Here is how it was played on an AP break on my way home, they played 15 seconds from about 16 seconds to 31 seconds and said Cain had a pause. In that time frame there is a minor pause and they cut Cain off before him saying "correct" thus make it look that Cain agreed with Obama and had a minor pause, they then went to a verbal gaffe from Obama today, to create equivalency.

Me listening, for an issue, heard no big deal with either person, a minor pause by Cain a minor gaffe by Obama. See how the game is played? The major pause from Cain is in the second 30 seconds!

Cars get it when gas vaporizes while still in the fuel delivery system.

Politicians get it when talking points vaporize before they become actual thought.

54. No. This won't hurt him. Perry is still not out after his fiasco.
Unless they're dead (I'm not advocating such a thing) they always have a chance it would seem. Shit even when dead they have a chance. I've never seen a party look towards Reagan for all their answers about life.
