So Ann Coulter thinks the libruls leaked the Cain dirt.  Cain says Perry did it.  Perry says Mitt did it.  Mitt says … uh, crickets.

Oddly enough, the person who benefited most from the Cain tumble is none other than Newt Gingrich.   You remember Newt, don’t you?

A new round of Republican primary and caucus polling from Public Policy Polling (D) — conducted almost entirely before the recent controversy involving past allegations against Herman Cain of sexual harassment — show Cain leading among Republicans in North Carolina and Maine. But perhaps more importantly, PPP’s analysis suggests that in the event of any potential Cain collapse, the likeliest beneficiary would be…Newt Gingrich.

So, personally, I think you leaked the Cain story just so Newt could be the new flavor of the week.  Think of it, a white fat white guy with an irritating voice, and even more irritating wife, irritating ideas, and enough arrogance to fill Yankee Stadium.  That is just perfect.

UPDATE:  Oh, pass the popcorn!
