Herman Cain Loses Temper With Reporter Regarding His Past Muslim Comments
Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain appeals to many voters because he appears “real” and not like a traditional politician. Yet is yelling at a reporter for asking a question you don’t want to answer being just a bit too real, or could that be the type of no-nonsense attitude people might be looking for this time around?
When a reporter asked Cain about his hesitancy to employ Muslims in his cabinet, Cain clearly agitated, with his voice rising, said:
“If you’re trying to make me lose my cool, you’re almost succeeding. . . . I never said I would use any special precautions.”
Almost immediately Cain realized such a stern tone was not appealing and he quickly said, “It probably wasn’t politically correct to raise my voice, but you know what’s resonating with the American people? I’m going to be myself.” The fact that he then apologized to the reporter he yelled at, clearly suggested Cain regretted raising his voice. Yet ultimately such unscripted moments often reveal a lot about candidates and for better or worse, Cain has now got one on tape for voters to judge.
