Since abandoning his bid for the Republican presidential nomination Herman Cain has been enjoying his celebrity. He talks on TV all the time and he's got a fancy new bus tour. But dancing in front of an audience is where he draws the line.

Producers of ABC's "Dancing with the d-list Stars" extended an invite to Cain, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He said no and that's bad news for all of us.

“He can’t dance in an eight-count. He can only dance in a nine-count,” said Lisa Reichert, his executive assistant. Oh, that Cain.

Michele Bachmann was also offered an invite, USA Today reports. No news on her decision, yet.
