Herman Cain had an interesting weekend.
Although at this point, between all the allegations, hating poor people, and an over-inflated sense of self-importance, I think most of his weekends would be interesting from an outside perspective. Maybe he doesn’t see the comedy in traipsing through life and dispensing advice to a would-be constituent base when he can’t find the biggest, most basic countries on a map, but it sure was fun while it lasted.
Herman Cain suspended his campaign this weekend, saying he was instead going to opt for a ‘Plan B’. Immediately, thousands of late-night jokes searched for a way to tie the morning after pill into Cain’s announcement. Cain emerged as a front-runner for the GOP’s nomination after winning the straw poll, then after seven women accused him of harassment, SEVEN, spectators and pundits to the process were predicting that his campaign wouldn’t be able to survive.
Do you know how many allegations it would take for someone on the democratic side to lose their support base? Only a few. The fact that it took this many to bring Cain’s campaign down is an incredible testament to the kind of support base republicans have.
Enjoy the announcement. And the fact that Mitt Romney is pretty much the luckiest man alive.
