It Doesn't Matter


A friend of mine likes to say that the lottery is the only game in which the odds of winning are the same whether you play or don't.

Similarly, amidst today's news is an item about an impending decision that will have absolutely no effect on the outcome. In other words, it's not news at all. Herman Cain's chances of winning the R nomination are exactly the same whether he stays in the race or drops out. He will, however, try to wring the last nickel out of the self-promotion known as his presidential campaign.

  1. Odd, isn't it, that when allegations of serial sexual harassment surfaced, Cain's fundraising took off bigtime, but when allegations of consensual sex pop up, suddenly he's toxic.

    The Republican mind is a strange place.
