News Roundup for 10/31/11

Pavarotti
Herman Cain


-Headline of the day-
"Herman Cain Breaks Into Song at the National Press Club"

Herman Cain's got a little bit of a problem. He's teetering on the edge of a sex scandal and things aren't looking up for him. He says he didn't do it, but if that's true, then the details don't make a lot of sense.

So what's he do? He closes up a speech to the National Press Club with the hymn "He Looked Beyond My Fault And Saw My Need" -- because nothing says "I'm innocent!" like a song about how Jesus can look past what a horrible, horrible sinner you are and forgive you.

Of course, the next big scandal is looking like it'll be a campaign finance/money-laundering scheme coming out of Wisconsin, but do a little song and dance, pull a rabbit out of his hat, and it'll just disappear. (The Atlantic, with video)
