   Who cares? There is no chance that Cain will be president. However, there is a very good chance that Nancy Pelosi will return as Speak of the House.

   Why not put a little effort into looking that would happen is the Democrats regain control of the House instead of fretting about an irrelevant candidate who will not even been running by February 1, 2012.

   They will cave into the Republicans’ demands at every turn, just like they did from 2009-10.

   @Rick Almeida:

   Which part of passing the Affordable Care Act and giving the federal government direct control (instead of the current indirect control) was giving the Republicans what they want?

   Perhaps he was simply showing off his knowledge of German, “Nein, nein, nein” (No, no, no)! 🙂

   Doug, I hate to point it out, but it just is not possible for the infinitely absurd to get “more absurd”.

   @OzarkHillbilly:

   Sure it can. Cain used to be just countably infinitely absurd. But now he’s added irrationality to the mix, so he’s become uncountably infinitely absurd.

   At first, I thought he was saying “Nein, nein, nein.” I expected a pithy follow-up about foreign polic … but then I realized he said, “Nine-Nine-Nine.”

   @JC:

   Actually I think that’s exactly what he was doing. Or at least I hope.

   Or else he’s crossed the threshold from “in over his head” to “nuts.”

    Back in the early 2000s, Doonesbury ran a series of strips in which the Bush Admin would answer every question from reporters with “9/11.” Life imitating art, I guess.
