Cain's campaign, is that toast I smell?

I must say - I wasn't a fan before, he kept giving me that 'I don't know what I'm talking about' vibe. I really wanted to like him. That being said, the chance of him being elected really spooked whoever financed and orchestrated that sexual harassment smear campaign. (Err, what's Exelrode's role in Facebook again?)

Cain Appears Flustered When Asked About Libya

Herman Cain appeared flustered when asked during an interview Monday about his views on the Obama administration’s support of the Libyan uprising.

When asked his thoughts on the president’s policy during an interview with the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, he leaned back and appeared to search for an answer: “O.K., Libya.”

“President Obama supported the uprising, correct? President Obama called for the removal of Qaddafi — just want to make sure we’re talking about the same thing before I say ‘Yes, I agree,’ or ‘No, I didn’t agree.’ ”

Then, Mr. Cain said he disagrees with the president’s approach “for the following reasons.”

“Nope, that’s a different one,” he said. “I gotta go back and see.”

“I’ve got all this stuff twirling around in my head,” he said.

J.D. Gordon, Cain’s spokesman and national security adviser, said Mr. Cain was asked the question toward the end of a 45-minute session amid a long day of traveling.

“We were all going on four hours’ sleep, so he was tired,” Mr. Gordon said. “When he got the Libya question, it took him a while to get his bearings on it, but he got the answer right.”

Mr. Gordon said Mr. Cain has been spending anywhere from 10 minutes to several hours a day boning up on national security issues, including conversations with some ambassadors. He also said he has spoken to former President George H.W. Bush and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

“It’s frankly just a lot of stuff to know in a little bit of time,” he said.
