America Has Too Many Crusts

The impetus underlying the Left's knee-jerk of fear and loathing of Herman Cain can be found in his handling of the floundering Godfather's Pizza chain: 

"I spent the first 60 days of my time at Godfather's listening, to figure out what we needed to do," Cain says. "It wasn't complicated: get back to basics."

"Number one, we had too many products on the menu. We had gotten away from our core product.  We had too many crusts.  We had the original Godfather's pizza crust, we had the original Godfather's pizza, and then we had three imitations that looked like Pizza Hut, Domino's, and Little Caesar's.  I got rid of the three imitations, and we got back to focus on the one we were good at."

The Left wants more crusts, and they're afraid that someone like Cain might not give them that. In all probability, they're correct. But it gets worse: not only is he successful in business, he also headed a branch of the Fed. He has demonstrable experience, acumen - and he's a black Republican.

So the race card, which the Left dearly loves to play, is vaporized. And while Obama received about 95% of the black vote in 08, his numbers among that base have plummeted.  Meanwhile, Cain's successes underscore Obama's string of failures. He is the Nobama.

Further, the Obama administration has alienated large numbers of independent voters as well as minority blocks such as hispanics.

Herman Cain represents the most lethal threat to Leftists in the USA in decades.

"Herman Cain represents the most lethal threat to Leftists in the USA in decades."

Which probably explains why the MSM is trying so hard to get Romney nominated.

That'd be my guess. I was reading earlier that Cain picked up some $2 million in donations during the week; far more than he drew during the first quarter of his run. I think he's starting to resonate.

"And so it came to pass that the idiots in charge banned their workers from wherry poppies on Remembrance Day,"

And yet they keep trying to play it. After all, not voting for Democrats is raaaaacist!

Is the poppies thing in reference to this:
