How's Herman Doing It?

People are scratching their heads at Herman Cain's rise in popularity in the battle for the Republican nomination.  Yes, it's the same Herman Cain, who said he'd sign a constitutional amendment banning abortion, and in doing so showed his complete lack of understanding of how our government works. Then he went on national TV and flip-flopped on the issue.  Seems rather wishy-washy; I recall other candidates in years passed being called to the carpet for changing stances on less divisive issues.

So how is he connecting with so many Americans?  I'll answer that by quoting Herman himself.  It's because, as he so eloquently put it, "...there are a lot of stupid people ruining America".
