Nothing good, according to Dreher:
Expertise does not guarantee wisdom. But that doesn’t mean the amateurism puts us on the side of the angels, either. You wouldn’t trust an amateur to spay your cat or to give you sound investment advice for your 401(K) — yet there are millions of Republians who think an avuncular amateur like Herman Cain would do a great job as president of the United States, or at least a better job than Jon Huntsman, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, or anybody else on offer who has actually worked in politics. I’m not thrilled with these choices either, but come on, what is wrong with us?
James Poulos thinks we've hit a new low. Nate Silver says the harassment scandal could damage Cain's brand. David Frum differs:
Unless the accusations against Cain prove both true and objectively heinous, today’s breakthrough fundraising day for Cain may augur many more – and a man unqualified for the presidency may prove brilliantly suited to a new career as ideological martyr.
