Cain got a rousing reception in Michigan from immoral Tea Party reactionaries fired up by Cain's bald-faced lies in the wake of four (so far) women revealing he harassed, assaulted, or tried to extort sex from them. [See link to article on title.] The more powerful and specific the evidence becomes, the more shameless Cain and his henchmen demagogue and lie about it, blaming the media, Rick Perry's campaign, and the Democrats. Taking a page from Clarence Thomas' counterattack at his Supreme Court nomination hearings, which worked and got Thomas onto the Supreme Court, Cain is mimicking Thomas by feigning outraged innocence.
Since reactionaries are shameless and unethical, this is working fine with his base. Cain is already boasting of the INCREASE in campaign donations, and he has not fallen in polls of GOP voters. Thus does America slide deeper into moral degeneracy. Joseph Biden helped open the door to making it acceptable to appoint known sexual miscreants to positions of power when he rammed through Thomas' appointment to the Supreme Court as the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee overseeing the confirmation hearings.
Yes, that Joe Biden, Obama's Vice President.
