SmithinJapan - " I guess we can't look at some of the female candidates anymore after their disastrous campaign attempts and witchcraft..."
LOL! I forgot about her. Was that Sharon Angle? And there were actually thousands of conservatives who supported her.
Unreal.
SmithinJapan - "Will it be a shoe-in victory for Obama again next year? given how things are going now with the GOP candidates, absolutely. People may be disillusioned with Obama given that the party of 'no' has blocked him every step of the way, but while voters will be united on Obama they'll be torn with whatever of the GOP fools is chosen to represent the shattered party."
Funny thing is, Obama is benefitting hugely by having no opposition. Meanwhile the GOP candidates are attacking each other and being attacked by Right Wing talkshow hosts, conservatives and their own kingpins.
Must be tough being a conservative politician when you're being smashed on all sides by people who are supposed to be on your side.
For that, I think Americans must give thanks to the Tea Party for splintering the right and making an extreme party even more extreme and what were formerly electable policies to be seen as unsupportable.
I think if Sarah Palin joined the competition at this stage, liberal heads would begin exploding all over at the total hilarity of it all. :-)
OMG, watching the Right implode is awesome. :-)

Yabits - "What I know is that the Republicans never accepted the results of the 2008 election and were on the president from Day One. I believe that President Obama has done his best, faced with some of the most difficult foreign and domestic problems in our nation's history. Problems mainly caused by the decisions and policies of the Republican and Democrat who preceded him."
I agree.
What really baffles me is how people can continue to support these Republicans when they've made it clear over and over again that their main goal isn't to create jobs, isn't to fix healthcare, isn't to to fix education, isn't to fight terrorism.
No, their main goals are to make President Obama a "one-term president" and to rob the have-nots to give to the haves.
They sit in congress and rail against the president for hurting the people and wasteful spending yet for 8 years they had no problem funding a war in Iraq that was not necessary meanwhile getting 5,000 of our men and women in uniform killed for no reason.
And what about the tax breaks for the "job creators" that are supposed to help big companies create jobs? Well, they created jobs, in India, Asia, and everywhere else but in America. In fact, America was losing 750,000 jobs a month under Bush until America gave him the boot and vted Obama in.
The Republicans rail against against Obama for attacking businesses and stifling them with regulation, of course ignoring the fact that deregulation is one of the reasons America is in the economic mess it is in now. You can't just let big companies run wild and do whatever they want because as they've shown, they will abuse it.

It seems to me that the only ones who are turning this Cain issue into one of race are conservatives who – deep down – simply cannot accept having a black president.
Actually, that would go a long way to explain their intense hatred of Obama.
Can conservatives see beyond the color of a person's skin? It would seem not.
Incredible in this day and age....

bass4unk - "but the liberal media is eating this up, because to see a black conservtive, nope, we can't have that now can we?"
It's really sad to see conservatives time and time again bring up the race card. It's like they can't think up any other coherent argument but to bring up the lamest one in the book
Get over it. The Dems shows the world how to elect a man of color.

unreconstructed - "Sushisake must imagine himself as an American 'progressive' of some sort. Nothing seems to thrill them these days more than the high tech lynching of a black American who has dared to leave the Plantation - and wants to help others do the same. Can't have that! What would Dems do without their demagoguery, race-baiting and perpetual grievance mongering? They'd actually have to address the issues. That would mean doing so with facts, with reason and clarity.2
Excuse me, this is 2011, not 1950.

Seriously, I'm loving this! The GOP presidential candidates are killing themselves while the rest of us are killing ourselves laughing watching them do it.
When the smoke finally clears, I'm betting there'll be....no one, nothing left standing on the GOP side except Mitt Romney's smoke-filled wig. :-)

JapanGal, get back to me after you try the ketchup.
Dumping ketchup into ramen also helps to offset the kick of the spicy red sauce that you drown your niku in.

I'm glad the U.S. media is giving more airtime to Cain's alleged misdeeds with a few women a decade or so ago rather than highlighting the fact that he was until this week completely unaware that China has possessed nuclear weapons for the last 5 decades.

JapanGal - I strongly disagree - ketchup on pretty much anything adds an unmatched level of awesomeness.
Ketchup on sushi and tonkatsu rocks!
It takes culture to realize this and cuisine smarts to know that limiting ones food combinations (ie: only using tonkatsu sauce on tonkatsu) is a sure road to food culture nowhereland :-).

The women who accused Cain of sexual harrassment - isn't one of them his wife?

Conservatives will natually scream 'conspiracy!' or claim Cain is being attacked because of his skin color, or...or...anything but face up to the fact that like the rest of the GOP presidential candidates, Herman Cain is a go-nowhere, no-ideas joke, which is precisely why conservatives identify so closely with them..

Nessie - "It's not impossible the Cain camp leaked it themselves while Cain is on an upswing in order to dimish its impact later."
I wouldn't bet on that. The guy came out with 2 completely different answers. Had he and his team been behind this leak, there would have only been 1.

No, as a number of liberals on this site have pointed out, Jon Huntsman is the only serious candidate on the Right.
But his intellect, verbal dexterity and competence appears to be too threatening for mainstream conservatives to cope with.
That's sad, because he would have been more of a match for Obama than any of the higher polling candidates on the Right.
