The Last Herman Cain Column
By GAIL COLLINS
NYT
You understand, of course, that Herman Cain is never going to go away.
“Me, a womanizer? I would never have thought they’d come up with that one,” Cain wrote to his supporters this week in an essay promising to — yes! — keep talking.
Where do you think he’ll pop up next? As the newest Fox commentator? On “Dancing With the Stars?” As Donald Trump’s guest judge on “Celebrity Apprentice?” As a contestant on “Celebrity Apprentice?”
We’ll know all too soon. The only part of his last chapter that remains sort of fascinating is Ginger White, the accuser who has been given credit in some corners for bringing the Cain campaign down. All things considered, that couldn’t have been much of a strain. (“Rumors of Extramarital Affair End Campaign of Presidential Candidate Who Didn’t Know China Has Nuclear Weapons,” read a headline in The Onion.)

I am amused by the liberal fascination with Herman Cain. A black man supported by conservatives, I suppose that is more than the intelligentsia can get their heads around. What’s more curious is the lack of liberal support for Mr. Cain after his philandering became public.
A question – did Ms. Collins display the same interest in Gennifer Flowers, Kathleen Wiley, Juanita Broaddrick or Monica Lewinsky? Hmmm.
