Ap pro po of nothing at all, when I was a kid, long long ago My granny taught me to compliment the ladies when they had a pretty dress or their coif was done in an attractive manner. Currently if you do that, the gals, I won't say ladies, think you are hitting on them and compliments are wasted. Not PC to boot.
Oh well, times and mores change, not always for the better.
To me, so far, the thing Cain has done is show his lack of candor about
the whole mess. He's a politician in a big time match. Honesty is the best policy.
