Brief Editorial

Herman Cain sure has some steep gall copycatting Martin Luther King's most famous rhetorical crescendo to trumpet his vain, grinny, substance-free candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination:



Cain rounded his speech with confidence that he?ll be the president come 2013. ?When they declare the presidential results, and Herman Cain is in the White House, we?ll all be able to say, ?Free at last, free at last! Thank God Almighty, this nation is free at last again!?



He's no longer the Hermanator, he's the Hermancipator.

And I see that Mr. Without Shame has already chosen a running mate. Meet your next veep, Joe the Plumber:

Well, that locks up the brainiac vote.

Fox News has found its new dream team and Sarah Palin, relegated to the past, can be seen wandering along the median strip, munching grass like a retired racehorse. How cruelly we cast away our idols once they're of no further use.
