How on earth could a man, who wanted to be president of the United State of America, not take control of a situation, as the one swirling around businessman Herman Cain?
The sexual harassment accusations against Cain were not tidbits to sniff at, and if they continued to unfold, as they would, he would be counted out of the Republican Party's nomination race, geared to select a competent person as the party's candidate for the presidential election in 2012.
Competent was not a strong word to use for any person, who was striding for a high post, such as president; yet, judging from how Cain was handling his present predicament, he would be classified as an incompetent individual, because even his spatial movement has become a problem.
He and his entourage have been hemmed in by the media wherever they went, for the candidate to become catatonic at one point, when he was heard to be yelling, "Excuse me", once or twice, trying to get some room to breathe.
He has been CEO of many renowned companies and organizations, Coca Cola and the National Restaurant Association among them, but his campaign management for such a more important position as president was as infantile as a "trick or treat" ensemble.
He and his advisers were a bunch of ignoramuses, and so, the media has taken over control of their organization instead, and were kicking their candidate around like a rag doll. What?
However, it was for Cain himself to be at the helm of his group, and not the cigarette smoking imbecile, who could not even sit straight, while he was being interviewed on national television.
President Barack Obama, the person that Cain would challenge in the 2012 general election, was none of the above. His campaign was being managed by real professionals, and he was surely getting ready to defend his performance as president and to win his second term bid.
To put a person like Cain against him would be like pitting a small fishing boat against the Titanic, right in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The small boat would be sank in two minutes, and there would be no trace of it for any number of years.
Many outsiders have been kind to advise Cain to take his whole situation in a different direction. He has lawyers; so, why were they not given the responsibility to handle his interrogations?
He could have interviews by the media, but they would not be the circus that was being witnessed, or how his campaign has been allowed to look, just like a "high tech lynching" mob.
He still has the chance to take control of himself and of his organization. He should be telling the people around him of what to do, and not the other way around, as it seemed to be at present. He has managerial skills; so, why not use them, when they were needed?
No one was speculating that Cain would win the Republican nomination; but there was the possibility of that happening; as in politics, nothing could be taken for granted.
His political contributions were coming in, but to have spent so much of his own money to run in the present race and lose, would be a great financial loss for him, to say the least.
Needless to say that it would be an additional woe to his sexual harassment accusations, which were brewing horrifyingly, as more women were coming out to dump some more charges on him, would not at all be far from the truth.
His whole life would be a disaster; and many Americans would not want one of their senior citizens to suffer so much. They could only wish him well, and for him to have the peace that surpassed all understanding.
