Response to Herman Cain’s "Ice Cream Meltdown"

Herman Cain is a persuasive businessman, not only for the range of experience he has collected for himself, but the string of successes he has helped to achieve, in one case turning a near-defunct subsidiary deep in the red to back in the black.

And black he is, from the color of his skin to the electoral prosperity he is slowing reaping. He makes his point, he answer the questions, and he moves on to solutions. He even advertises himself as a problem solver, not a politician. Summarily he dismisses any concerns about his lack of experience in government as a positive for voters who tired of politicians saying all the right things but doing nothing.

The press is starting to swarm around his insurgent candidacy. Having very little to attack on from the political front, they are parsing his every word.

Thus do the mainstream media denounce his self-appraisal; not just the flavor of the month, but like Haagen-Dazs black walnut, which "tastes good all the time.”

Haagen-Dazs has reported that they discontinued the flavor (therefore, it was indeed "the flavor of the month"), but Cain's popularity continues to grow, not just spiking in aberrant polls but confirmed by growing popular and media interest among GOP party faithful. This businessman-turned Presidential Candidate may be the consistent, charismatic, and confrontational chief executive whom the Republicans have been looking for to replace the great-on-paper (but paper-thin personality) Mitt Romney.
