The Halloween line

Posted by Max Brantley on Mon, Oct 31, 2011 at 4:04 PM

The line is open. A final few words:

* CAIN'S COMMENTS: After first disavowing all knowledge of any complaints, Herman Cain has now developed an alibi that there might have been one baseless complaint. His tale is at variance with a human resources officer interviewed by Politico. Fox News is giving him the sympathetic platform. Forget that, after saying he knew nothing of any settlement, that he's now discussing details of one.

Anarchists at the gate: the rising Republicans of Arkansas
