ABC's Cokie Roberts actually made a good point yesterday on the Sunday morning show
This Week. Hard to believe I know, but
here's what she said.
the NPR figure labeled Cain as just another “flash in the pan.”
“Herman Cain is just this week’s or this two week’s ‘Not Romney,’”
she said. “We have had an entire season of ‘Not Romney. ‘Whether it was
Rick Perry or Donald Trump or Herman Cain or Chris Christie, this is
‘this week’s.’”
Roberts added: “Until the Republicans decide it’s the “Not Romney or
Romney is the nominee, we are going to have these people pop up.”
I think this is about right. They have nobody else. They certainly aren't going to nominate Cain or Ron Paul. They are pretty much just going to go through the motions with every candidate until they finally reconcile it within themselves that they only have Romney. Republicans did the very same thing in 2008 when they groaned themselves into accepting McCain as the nominee. The outcome in 2012 will be much the same as well. Barack Obama will be reelected and Republicans
will call it tyranny.
