De Moines Gold Standard Poll = CAIN

by Annie | Leave a comment

American Thinker cites a Politico story citing a De Moines Register poll (ya with me?), which, as noted here, and as I’ve seen elsewhere, is the gold standard of polling in Iowa. It’s of likely voters (versus registered voters, or the general population, in progressively less reliable order) and for that reason, together with the fact that the Register’s polling is historically accurate, it’s the one off-the-shelf poll that even the guys who get $10k per month to do internal, private polling for a candidate, can read – and panic.

And while there is nothing panic-worthy in this one, and it’s tight, there is some very, very encouraging news for my man Herman:

“…The poll breaks down candidate preference into hard support (definitely backing a candidate), moderately hard support (probably backing a candidate) and leaners… ‘In all three categories, Cain leads the field with 20%… Gingrich… gets 19% (and) Romney gets 14%…  13% were undecided… (The) interviews taken Nov. 11 to 13…

(The) Des Moines Register poll of Iowa, which is considered the yardstick… (had) subsets …(which) reveal… Cain has 9% of voters “definitely” backing him, while Romney and Gingrich have 8% “definitely.” Paul has 7 percent “definitely”…'”

This poll was taken just this weekend.  Do I even need to ask the rhetorical question as to why this isn’t leading the news on NBC / CBS / ABC / MSNBC / CNN?  This shows remarkable resilience for a guy who has been mercilessly, brutally, unfairly slimed for two solid weeks.

Way to stand tall, Herman!

Dr. Victor Zuckerman's 15 Minutes

Now Bialek’s boyfriend-at-the-time, a pediatrician, is going to say that she said what she said when she said it to him, 14 years ago. Allred’s called a presser at 1pm.  The mainstream media is already reporting this as “another accuser,” “this time a man.”

Unless he was in the car, it’s not news.  It’s hearsay.

And it will backfire.

MAJOR Consultant Predicts CAIN as NOMINEE

by Annie | Leave a comment

Forgive me for not providing a link to the video clip I am about to describe.  I have other matters that need my attention this morning, but this was important enough for me to throw up a quick post.

Last night I had a rerun of Friday’s FBN’s Freedom Watch on.  The Judge had a major political consultant on.  I wish I could remember his name, but I remember thinking the guy had chops & was sufficiently credentialed to be credible.  In short, he impressed even me, who believes most of these guys are full of sh*t.

He predicted Herman Cain would be the nominee.  He did this based a few smart criteria, but also on what I have been feeling my gut all along, and he cited it.  Remarkably, it’s the very same gut-check criteria I heard an old Marine express to Bill Bennet on his radio show this morning: Herman’s a guy you can follow into battle.

Why?  Because you know he won’t put you in harm’s way unless it’s real, and serious.  This old Marine even mentioned his son, a young Marine, specifically, as an example of the precious cargo he would entrust to a Commander-in-Chief Herman!  Got that? Worthy of the title of Commander-in-Chief. Think about what that means coming from an old Marine and father of a current Marine!

This, unlike the Poseur Commander-in-Chief Bam-Bam, who is bringing the troops home for Christmas as a political choice, not a military choice – because it sounds good, like a Hallmark card – even though the Generals on the ground are screaming that it’s lethal – the middle of the fighting season and with every troop gone, the troops remaining are grievously imperiled – “Who are you going to ask to be the last man to leave” to quote the perfumed gigilo the Democrats almost elected in 2004.

Remember the great scene in Jaws, when Quint is describing floating in the Pacific after delivering “the bomb, the Hiroshima bomb”?  He said the scariest part wasn’t the event that threw him in the water, or even the hours he spent treading water watching his buddies get eaten alive by the circling sharks.

No.

He made a point to say that the scariest part was the last few minutes, when the rescue ship was there, waiting for his turn.

That’s what Barack Obama is doing these poor guys in Iraq & Afghanistan by “rescuing” them while the sharks are circling in the middle of the fighting season.

So, while this political consultant’s prediction was made prior to Saturday night’s Commander-in-Chief debate, I doubt there was anything that happened there that would have changed his mind, for a reason I’ve stated before:

There’s nothing Herman lacks as a man of deep, abiding principles, that he can’t learn from a briefing book, versus Obama, for whom there aren’t enough briefing books in the world…

If you arrived here via a comment I’ve posted somewhere, perhaps looking for the promised link to set up a recurring donation to Herman Cain 2012, please navigate to www.hermancain.com.  I am recovering from attacks on this blog, one of my own making, and the other a hack.

If you are a returning reader, my apologies for the schizophrenic nature of this blog’s appearance.  You know I shot myself in the foot Thursday night (11.10.11) by tinkering under the hood with the permalinks and bolluxed things up pretty good, but now I have evidence of an outsider hacking the site.  My “dashboard” in WordPress has a lot of heavy white space in it, and the left hand menu has disappeared, evidence, I’ve come to understand, of a malicious attack.

I knew I had some weird visitors, people from Slovenia, etc, that didn’t make a lot of sense, but, research seems to indicate it’s no mere fluke of “the world-wide internets” but an all too common occurrence of hacking, for no particular reason, it seems, other than it can be done.

Thanks for putting up with me while I figure this out.  Salt may be in and out, up or down, in days to come, but please know any outages are temporary and on the way to getting to a permanent fix!

POP QUIZ! QUICK! "4 Women" Allege WHAT?

by Annie | Leave a comment

I originally wrote this as a comment to a NewsBusters article under their headline:

On PBS, David Brooks Predicts Herman Cain Is ‘Behaving Badly’ and ‘Will Collapse ‘Within a Week Or Two’

——————————————————————

ANONYMOUS ALLEGES DAVID BROOKS DIDDLES LITTLE BOYS

Whah? THAT’S SLANDEROUS?  THE HELL YOU SAY.

NOW TRY BEING HERMAN CAIN YOU PIECE OF SH*T.

You mean… It’s SLANDER if “anonymous” “alleges” something about YOU, a WHITE guy?  Is that it?  But it’s NOT slander if “anonymous” “alleges” something DESPICABLE about a BLACK GUY?  Is THAT how this works? (I, personally, think race is secondary to this mess, but a liberal would argue it this way.)

How are you going to DEFEND yourself, David?  How do you DEFEND yourself if all your little press buddies spend ALL of next week printing 100+ stories with ANONYMOUS ALLEGATIONS that YOU, DAVID BROOKS, diddles little boys?  It’s IMPOSSIBLE, isn’t it?  It’s punching at air.

OKAY —
POP QUIZ!!!!  What did Herman do?  “FOUR WOMEN” have come forward, right?
QUICK!  ANSWER!

1. “You’re as tall as my wife.”

2. The BULLSH*T story Bialek told about the “incident” in the car – HIGHLY SUSPECT.

3. Anonymous woman – unknown complaint.

4. Anonymous woman – unknown complaint.

ON #1:  “You’re as tall as my wife” sued her SUBSEQUENT employer for sexual harassment when a male co-worker sent around an email that “men are like computers because you have to turn them on, and women are like computers because they remember everything” – THAT was the CENTRAL FEATURE, not ancillary, but THE CENTRAL FEATURE of her second, subsequent complaint. THAT’S WHY the going-to-the-ladies-room-in-a-group presser floated around was KILLED.

ON #2:  And Bialek?  (Stipulated – ALL “lie” technology is squishy, okay?) The latest, and BEST in lie detector technology ran a voice analysis on both Herman & Bialek – and said, HERMAN’S TELLING THE TRUTH AND, like *I* have said, Bialek’s story is credible – EXCEPT FOR THE ALLEGATION OF ASSAULT.  This Atlanta lie detector guy said THAT’S WHERE HER STORY FALLS APART – HUGE.  As I’ve written previously, he passed up THREE opportunites to go use this ‘palatial’ suite he upgraded her to, ostensibly to USE IT, and he chooses to MEET in the hotel bar – pass – LEAVE the hotel to go out to dinner – PASS – then PICKS A CAR, IN PUBLIC, OUTSIDE HIS EMPLOYER TO *ASSAULT* HER?  When EVERYONE agrees Herman very likely could have … ASKED for nookie?  Hello?

ON #3 & #4:  Well, it circles back to #1 & #2.  Add in Ann Coulter’s (in Human Events) BLISTERING ripping off of the scab of the “coinky-dinks” vis-a-vis the source of ALL of this being AXE & CHICAGO, through ex-Cain/NRA employees now working for the opposition, and that these were all alleged to have happened in this ONE 3 year period, in the LEWINSKY years, when everyone was whining to their employers over NOTHING for a quick $50k…. It just all piles up to a mountain of steaming sh*t.

Brooksy-baby, and the rest of you liberal wh*res?

There’s a DIRECT INVERSE relationship between how much the liberal media slams a candidate and how much we “love” him, so KEEEEEP TALKIN, kids!

WE’RE SMARTER THAN YOU.

YOU KNOW IT.

AND IT’S KILLING YOU.

Hah hah haha….
