Karl Rove: The Herman Cain Boomlet Is Over - Zeke Miller

Karl Rove points to the weaknesses in Cain's "campaign":

1. No one is sure what the hell he just said on abortion
2. 9-9-9 adds sales tax to places where it does not already exists and it is a huge tax raise on the middle class and the elderly while cutting taxes on the very rich. How can it lose?
3. His statement on negiotiating with terrorists is a killer.
4. His cluelessness on Israel is shocking given his absolute need to bring evangelicals on board.

Herman Cain was on a book tour when he had the mantle of frontrunner thrust upon him. Once Rick Perry started botching the debates and Michelle Bachmann proved herself seperated from reality, Cain's most attractive aspect, not being Mitt Romney, began to pay off. He's making this up as he goes along and it shows.
