Very funny! And he wants us to think it’s a Democratic cabal of Rick Perry aides, helped by the liberal media. “Of course, I have no evidence to back it up.”
Clay Bennett didn’t inject the term “lynching” into this debate, the defenders of Herman Cain did (likening this case to that of Clarence Thomas).
If they want play the race card and stoke the visceral emotion by describing this scandal as a “high-tech lynching of a black conservative”, I think it’s more than fair to depict the opposing view- that Herman Cain is not being lynched by anyone except himself.
Any torment he’s going through is a product of his own hand.
“Race”, has absolutely nothing to do with the fact Herman is a jerk, self-absorbed, and not terribly “bright”. Of course Rick Perry couldn’t remember all three, count ‘em a whole THREE! departments he’d do away with. What a team!
All of the Republican Candidates could save a lot of time and money by running one simple cartoon: Lucy Van Pelt holding the football for Charlie Brown and, of course, pulling it away as he goes to kick it. The comment would read, “That’s us Folks, Your Republican Candidates for 2012.”

Not all of us Clark. Cain is the one that said he was being lynched. Turns out, it’s a suicide.
