The Cain Scrutiny

GOP Presidential Candidate Herman Cain wins the Florida straw poll. Dorothy Rabinowitz quotes my friend (and hers) Wallingford's Alan Kors and his amusing observation:
"So, the 'Tea Party racists' in a Republican straw poll chose the self-made black Herman Cain -- mathematician and successful businessman -- son of a cleaning woman and a janitor, as their choice of nominee for the presidency of the United States. Well! What a bigoted group, what a caste society!"
Heh.

Rabinowitz credits Cain's "unfailing capacity to speak as though from a core of fire deep inside him. An irresistible strength -- as is the mordant humor he brings to the battle."

Maybe its time to take off our bedroom slippers and put on our marching shoes for Mr. Cain?

Who's to say that his main support came from the tea party? As I listen to him and the other candidates, he makes the most sense. Why do people (the media) have to manufacture racial overtones.....
