Herman Cain: Karl Rove Deliberately Trying to ‘Damage’ Me

Herman Cain: Karl Rove Deliberately Trying Damage MeAppearing on Fox News Monday morning, GOP strategist Karl Rove unveiled a laundry list of gaffes made by Republican presidential frontrunner Herman Cain on a variety of political issues.

Using a whiteboard to outline Cain’s missteps on: abortion, taxes, terrorism, neoconservatism, the Mideast, and other topics, Rove stated, “The whole effect of this is to not create an image, I think, of him being a flip-flopper.”

“I think it’s to create an image of being not up to the task.”

In a phone call response with Washington Examiner correspondent Byron York, Cain blasted, ”It‘s a good thing the voters are not looking at Karl Rove’s little whiteboard.”

Cain added, “I believe it is a deliberate attempt to damage me because I am not, quote unquote, the establishment choice.  But why not go with the choice that the people seem to like?”

The Examiner adds:

Cain accused Rove of bias in favor of candidates with big organizations, lots of money, and prior experience in political office — all things Cain doesn’t have. “What has Karl Rove done?” Cain continued.  “If I become the nominee, he has given Democrats talking points for a commercial to attack me.  It makes no sense unless it’s a deliberate attempt on his part to try to push me down so that the candidate he wants rises to the top.”

When asked which candidate he believes Rove supports, Cain said, “I believe he wants Romney to get it.”

Rove strongly denies Cain’s charges. “Herman Cain is the one giving the Democrats material for attack ads,” Rove said in a phone conversation Monday afternoon.  “I want the strongest nominee to emerge from the process.  I have no personal favorite.  Fox expects me to call balls and strikes as I see them.”

Rove said that even though Cain has made a number of mistakes, it is not too late for his campaign to recover.  “Every candidate is entitled to a few mulligans,” Rove said.  “Because of his energy and passion, he gets more than the normal number of mulligans.  But he’s running out of them.  And he should not expect everybody to be cheerleading every mistake he makes.”

    Herman Cain is exactly right on this, and I will add that Fox News is doing the same thing. I watched only Fox News for a long time but it is about imposible for me to watch them now.

      I heard that Fox was moving center, seems like they are moving left. I wonder who is threatening them. Who cares at this point. The media for one reason or the other has been colluding with the government, I guess Fox is the latest casuality. Any how, please don’t listen to Rove. He is also in someone’s pocket. Maybe he used to be the conservative spokesperson, no more. If he speaks I don’t listen. Cain 2012!!

      For me its either Herman Cain or Romney, (RomneyCare has been proven time and time again to be a conservative program when it was written, look at an Article written by Romney’s Health Care Adviser, Senior Fellow for the Heritage Foundation called Mitts Fitt ( http://www.heritage.org/research/commentary/2006/01/mitts-fit ) It was definately a conservative program that the liberals destroyed, much like they are trying to destroy the constitution, luckily we still ahve a majority of conservatives instead of an 85% liberal legislature.

      ROMNEY/CAIN 2012 or CAIN/ROMNEY 2012 – Even Herman Cain agrees with this set up, he’s said so multiple times.

      Yes, Mr. Rove. PLEASE sit down and shut up. YOU are a precise example why more and more conservatives are changing their registration from Republican to Independent. Yes, we’ll undoubtedly have to vote for the Republican Presidential candidate chosen by delegates at the next RNC convention in order to have a decent chance of evicting bHo and his wife (who is definitely not the First Lady) from the people’s White House ….. even if it means we may have to pinch our noses shut while marking the ballot.

      Question for you, Mr. Rove: Would I be correct in guessing that you are an avid suppporter of the United Nations’ AGENDA-21?

I think it might be helpful to know whose signature of approval was on the law that put universal health care in place in Massachusetts. And you might also want to address the fact that Romney then sent his advisors down to D.C. (at the request of bHo) to work alongside of bHo’s architects of what became the hideous obamacare legislation shoved down our throats despite all polls showing the majority of voting citizens objected to it.

      Oh and sticking with the topic, Herman Cain clarified his stance on abortion at the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition meting. He told it how he believes it… FLAT OUT… http://www.thedailycandidate.com/video/2011/oct/cain_iowa_faith.html

      After that, will the media leave it alone. Nope. And they will spin it like they are spinning RomneyCare and the McCain campaign strategy of calling Romney a flip-flopper.

      They are now calling Cain a flip flopper but neither of them are. Their opinions change and their policies change… they aren’t perfect people. They make mistakes. Like Romney, most things they call flip-flops come from when he was an independent in a Blue State. Question for you, if he was flip flopping, why would he go more conservative in a very liberal state where they don’t hire Conservatives. Yet his opinions changed and he learned that liberalism is for idiots. That was 17 years ago. A lot has changed, very similar to Reagan and Perry, and their transitions. They learned how dumb liberalism is.

      This just shows you have no idea what you are talking about. Romney never sent his advisers, the articles never even said that, Rush Limbaugh did. If you went back to articles in the Huffington Post and the Boston Globe on March 29, 2011, you would know that that was a recycled article, after people’s memories had dulled. It was proven false back then and it was proven false now. The main adviser was an economist who had met with Romney once. He was the one that had made the Cost of RomneyCare model and was proven wrong. He was a consultant of the state doing projections only. the true adviser was Edmund Haislmaier, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, look it up on that article. He is a health care expert, not an economist.

      This is the problem when we don’t check the articles written by groups such as MSNBC. Here was a red flag, the WH logs came out months ago… you think they just found that a Mass. consultant from MIT which had met with Romney had visitied Obama. Old news, recycled to Kill Romney as Obama’s campaign put it.

      I figured this would happen. Fox built up Mr. Cain by giving him more air time than anyone (this takes the focus off their backed candidate, Romney). In other words, they built Mr. Cain up, just to tear him down. I know Fox talks about all the media bias on the left (and that’s true) but Fox is just as biased to fit their agenda. O’Reilly for example pushes the war-machine and at the same time supports the Wounded Warriours project. At least Fox gave Mr. Cain air-time. That’s more than they do for some candidates.

      I think I’ll sing. Herman is being attacked by establishment shill Rove, and is leading the polls. Rove was advising the Republicans when the democrats took the congress back in 2006…go away “K”arl. He’s on FOX so much I quit watching it pretty much. Many of them there carry the water for the establishment favorites.

      Herman speaks his mind honestly and is open and available, contrary to the establishment candidates whose speaking access is controlled and speach PC-checked prior to delivery. What have any of them said of any substance?

      The leftist media uses speculative homosexuality and abortion issues every election to put conservative candidates on the defensive instead of being on offence. Stop nitpicking each other over an issue that is not going to change, no matter what any candidate says or does, until its overturned in the Supreme Court. For now its established law that it IS UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL. (Unless you are like some who advocate taking the law into their own hands.)

      Alright. I‘m not sure if you thought no one would read what’s posted at your provided link or if you simply suffer from a variety of colossal misunderstandings of freedom and libertarianism or classical liberalism.

      In general, it‘s not any government’s (state or federal) job to “create a (healthcare) system,“ regardless how much more ”efficient.” Good intentions aside, we all must disabuse ourselves of this idea that the government should come in and solve all of our problems. It’s this attitude that something “HAS to be fixed” or that something “HAS to be done” that continues to kill freedom. The fact that our current healthcare system, not to mention our criminal justice system, are not perfect doesn’t change the fact that they are the best that are or have ever been in the history of the earth. It‘s not a politician’s job to come in and define deregulation as exchanging the current government program for his new and improved government program. Which is exactly what Romneycare was.

      In short, move the government out of the way. Cut spending, cut programs; get the government completely out of it. That’s deregulation.

      And the link‘s definition of libertarian as forcing people who don’t want health insurance to put $10,000 in a state escrow account to cover accrued healthcare expenses, for which funds, providers left in the lurch may “apply.” And withholding people’s tax returns if they refuse to give up the $10k?

His super PAC, is almost completely supported by three billionaires He speaks for them, not for FOX. Follow the money and that’s where Rove makes his. Personally I think the guy without morals, but I’ll give him credit, he knows how to win elections. And nominating Cain is a losing proposition.

He does seem to be constantly saying he mis-spoke. He can’t keep saying that, he has to be firm in his positions and not appear to be changing his mind. They will go after him for this big time. This has me very concerned about his true stance on issues and I am wondering if maybe he is trying to please everyone, or maybe he is not sure himself of what his positions are on some issues. We must have a very strong leader this time around, we cannot afford anything less because of the mess this country is in.

      It sucks that Marco won’t accept the invitation to run as the VP. It’s a dead heat as far as me and my household is concerned. That includes all my brothers and sisters down South, in Afghanistan, and my mom and dad in Atlanta, Ga. Toss up right now between Cain and Paul. Paul is economically sound, and I happen to like his “non-interventionalist” foreign policy ideals. As a Constitutional Moderate I’d be nuts not to love what Paul brings to the table. On the other hand, I been at several of Cains functions even before he decided to throw his hat into the presidency ring. What Cain says publicly is what he lives privately, and from firsthand knowledge of the mans word, it’s binding. I trust both of them to do what they say they will, and in my opinion will set the globalists back 50 years on their plans against America.

      We will see deregulation, a mandating to restrict executive orders once the pollution of Obama is wiped off of law, and power returned to the people, ie, Congress. That will include some bad news for the 17th Amendment lovers!

      Harvey, who ever said Karl Rove was a conservative? He was the brains behind G.W. Bush for God’s sake!

      Rove is one person the Fox News Network could get rid of tomorrow and I’d not miss a minute of him. He represents the country club, blue blood, Rockefeller liberal wing of the GOP! Of COURSE he’s going to be dissing Cain! Rove would probably prefer either Perry or Romney in the White House!

      Rove just needs to shut up and retire…his liberal thinking, and liberal back stabbing is not wanted in the new, CONSERVATIVE GOP!

      Ah, the Old Guard and the Democrats….well, screw them. Herman Cain knows what the right thing to do to fix the country is, and speaks his mind with no BS. In the end, it will be US who vote that know where the bear sits in the buckwheat. I think many of them, both Reps and Dems, are jealous of Cain. Not one of them can match his resume.

      I have been ignoring Rove for quite a while. I don‘t feel he’s objective. He seems to be the Republican version of a typical Liberal strategist. In other words, it’s all about his agenda and party politics. I’ll ignore Rove and vote for the candidate I believe is honest and has more of my values than the others. I’m still undecided, but Herman Cain is near the top of my list. I won‘t simply vote for Romney simply because he’s the 2nd most Liberal Republican candidate and therefore they believe he’s the most likely to beat Obama. With Obama’s abysmal record, almost any of the candidates should be able to beat him next year.
      Ugh, another year of Obama and his cronies, I just depressed myself. ;-)

In Mass. he ran as aliberal republican to get elected. In 2012, in the age of the Tea Party movement, all of the sudden Romney is a true Constitutional conservative??? I don’t think so.

But he’s running out of them. And he should not expect everybody to be cheerleading every mistake he makes.” –

      I don’t really mean to pile on Cain especially because I think he will talk himself out of contention on his own, but one issue that I haven’t seen anyone on The Blaze mention is Cains book “This is Herman Cain! My Journey to the White House”.
      Cain spent thousand of dollars of campaign money to purchase multiple copies of his own book. That seems a little unethical to me because campaign money is not supposed to end up in the candidates pocket and unless I am mistaken some of the profit from book sales go to the author. If I am wrong about this I apologize but it just doesn’t seem right. Also this may be nit-picking but I think the title of the book seems a bit presumptuous.

    I knew that was coming when you took the lead Herman, I warned you on all the blogs that you were headlined in. Carl Rove isn’t doing you near as much damage as Foxnews and the media is. Herman us conservatives are gonna have to vote for whoever gets the nomination and not Obama. All you gotta do to be president is get the nomination. I’d sure rather thave you than Romney!

      Seems like a good place to post this. Damn I’m impressed with Marco Rubio. My dad says that he’s true old school Conservative. It‘s a shame he won’t consider the Vice Presidency, but people have to honor him for sticking to his elected promises. I just hope that 4 years in the Senate doesn’t ruin his straight forward perspective.

      Now back to the currently airing broadcast of Cain vs the Ignorant Moron.

      @10thammendment, Rubio’s Parents did not become US Citizens until after he was born. He is not a natural born citizen and thus inelligible to serve. Please correct me if I am wrong. But then again look at the Obama fiasco, he is not elligible either… My brain hurts…

      He is for VICE President for sure. The test is if he was born on American soil. The Supreme Court has yet to rule on a definition for “Natural Born Citizen”, which is exactly why going forward against Obama would fail. The SCOTUS has simply refused to hear the case to make a ruling. Nor are they likely to be inclined to. I know the reading of Article II Section 1 Clause 3 & 5, but that was replaced with the 12th Amendment. The problem is convoluted further with a reading of the 14th Amendment, which was a horribly written Amendment and allowed room for what actually constitutes being considered naturally born.

      General readings regarding Obama are different then the case with Rubio for the simple years on this soil. All who were born on American soil and had lived here 14 years at the time were considered natural born citizens.

      Andrew Johnson said that both the Civil Rights Act and the Fourteenth Amendment would confer citizenship on them at birth. No objections were raised in the Senate.

      ——————————————————————
      I tried to condense the explanation and I can see it has holes to way I did it. Rubio will be fine as a candidate, including president. Obama’s case is far different, although I personally wouldn’t waste time raising a stink over it. There are questions of his citizenship period. Was he born on American soil? I think so, but I can’t say for sure and with the records sealed, and I’m a pretty good ghost, there’s no way to know for certain. My gut tells me no, but I have to go by what evidence there is. I believe he was born a natural Kenyan, but became Indonesian (especially under Islamic rules regarding the fathers heritage).

      Rubio doesn’t have that problem. He was clearly born to exiled parents in 1971 at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital.

      He’s not the only one who will be looked at for a rise up the ladder. Bobby Jindal would be too. But he too will pass muster.

      Why the problem for Obama? Because if he was in fact born on foreign soil and his natural father is not a US citizen, Obama isn’t a citizen AT ALL. Nor was he ever naturalized as a US Citizen, which means he should never have been in the Senate, much less the presidency.

      I “believe” he’s a foreign National in my gut, but there’s no way to prove it without unsealing his records.

I’m just one of the dopey people in the flyover states holding onto my God and my guns, but my advice to you would be to stand tall, continue to speak the truth and turn it over to God. It is very disheartening to say the least to watch FOX twist what you say along with the rest of the MSM.

      As much as I hate Karl Rove, Cain needs no help in losing support.. He damages himself enough. I was backing Cain after Palin decided not to run, but his lack of a solid stance on an issue involving life and death caught me off guard. —> http://markamerica.com/2011/10/21/herman-cain-on-abortion-say-what/

      @JohnGalt If you were backing Palin then I don’t know why you would have backed Cain. Remember, she warned us against Cain when she said he was ‘the flavor of the week.’ If she was supporting Cain, she would have ever said that. Palin is a true, old-school conservative Constitutionalist and she can see through the fluff. In her own way, she was helping us distinguish between a solid conservative and someone who is not. People need to wake up.

      Here is the clip of Palin talking about Cain as flavor of the week.

      http://www.5min.com/Video/Palin-Herman-Cain-the-Flavor-of-the-Week-517169251

      still looking for the warning.

      All she was getting at is that at that point in the debate cycle that things were constantly changing… first Romney… then Bachman, Perry & now Cain… I saw nothing demeaning or as a warning in her comment.

      As of now Im still sticking to my original pool of viable candidates that will put us back on the right path. My pool consists of Cain, Gingritch & Bachman & as of now Id like to see a Gingritch/Cain Ticket. Gingritch knows how Capitol Hill works & is a Constitutional historian whitch makes him aware of many tools at his disposal That Cain Im sure doesn’t know of. But also Cain’s 999 plan is a huge step in the right direction to get our tax base on level footing & out of the hands of special interests.

      If you have not seen Gingritch at the Faith & freedom Coalition a couple of days ago you would do well to watch it & see what a force he could be in the White House to fet us back on a Constitutional footing.
