Mitt Romney is one lucky bastard

So this weekend, Rick Perry gave a weird speech to a New Hampshire crowd. Some have compared it to his Dean Scream moment, which I guess. Watch it below:

And then there is Herman Cain. He has a Clarence Thomas problem.

“During Herman Cain’s tenure as the head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, at least two female employees complained to colleagues and senior association officials about inappropriate behavior by Cain, ultimately leaving their jobs at the trade group. [..]

The women complained of sexually suggestive behavior by Cain that made them angry and uncomfortable, the sources said, and they signed agreements with the restaurant group that gave them financial payouts to leave the association. The agreements also included language that bars the women from talking about their departures.”

Mitt Romney is the luckiest son of a bleep since I can remember. He has no credible oppoenents in the GOP primary. And the incredible ones are destroying themselves so that he wins by default.

But then again maybe not. Cain has begun a push back by of course attacking the messenger and attacking the mainstream media, which means that the story is 100% accurate and probably worse than we know. Cain will be in front of the cameras today in D.C. He will be talking to the American Enterprise Institute at 9 AM and the National Press Club at 1 PM. Both events are on C-SPAN, and the press event will include questions. I predict fireworks.
