For months before he became the frontrunner, the story with Herman Cain was that, in general, Republicans who knew of him, liked him.
It seems that streak is coming to an end as Americans hear more and more about his history with sexual harassment allegations.
As Cain flops around trying to get his hands around the growing scandal dogging his campaign, he’s lost the one thing that was his calling card throughout the entire campaign — his high numbers in the Gallup intensity score.
As TPM’s Kyle Leighton reported at the outbreak of the Cain scandal, that Gallup number — which is intended to show relative approval ratings among candidates with vastly different name ID levels — was the barometer that would show how Cain was weathering the scandal.
It’s not going well.

BUT it's OUR FAULT (LADIES) .. That is the new Right Wing NEOCON (eg freshened up version of fascism) that says its always the VICTIMS fault ...that Criminals have no responsibilities or moral obligations or for that matter values to not treat others as if they are their property... e.g. slaves. Don't you just love it!
So Rush Limbaugh has the solution. We are all to wear BURQAs then they won't attack us! Thats part of the new GOP Sharia Law which also says you have not control over your uterus, it will do whatever we Republican men tell it to. (Note the women of Mississippi didn't appreciate that!) - 7 months ago
