Even super-Republican site Infidel Bloggers Alliance is thinking about abandoning Herman Cain after yesterday's interview with Wolf Blitzer. He says he's for "traditional marriage," but he thinks it's a state's right issue. And so, apparently, are guns:
- Danny Schwartz
BLITZER: How about gun control?CAIN: I support the 2nd amendment.
B: So what’s the answer on gun control?
C: The answer is I support, strongly support, the 2nd amendment. I don’t support onerous legislation that’s going to restrict people’s rights in order to be able to protect themselves as guaranteed by the 2nd amendment.
B: Should states or local government be allowed to control guns, the gun situation, or should…
C: Yes
B: Yes?
C: Yes.
B: So the answer is yes?
C: The answer is yes, that should be a state’s decision.
That sound you hear is ten thousand teabaggers tearing out what's left of their hair at a presidential candidate who thinks Constitutional rights are a state's rights issue. It's official: Herman Cain is this week's Newt Gingrich. The poor guy can't catch a break. Why do the gotcha media persist in asking him questions?
