The media is already obsessing about the negativity of the 2012 campaign.

My colleague Bill O'Reilly recently said:

"...this presidential campaign...is going to be the most media intensive vicious propaganda-filled hate fest that we've ever seen."

The political class mocks Herman Cain - former CEO of Godfather's Pizza - for seeking the Presidency because he has never held elective office... never been a politician... or even worked for one. "How absurd that he wants to be president," they sneer.
