Weekly Wrap-Up: Cain, OWS, and Halloween Candy

The Republican primary has dominated the news this week, as allegations of sexual harassment by Herman Cain were been brought to light, and the PR was botched by the Cain campaign. I wrote more about what the Cain campaign needs to do on Friday. Unless the Cain campaign can show that it can manage a PR situation like this, Cain will have no chance of getting my vote in the primary.

Also during the past weekend, New York got hit with one of the worst October snowstorms ever. I must admit that Occupy Wall Street had more courage than I thought. I figured that the majority of the protesters would be gone the moment the cold weather hit, but the protests lived on despite the inches of snow.

The President continued his campaign...er, "Presidential" road trip. First, it was "pass this bill" but now it is "we can't wait." He has decided to govern by executive order instead trying to pass ideas through Congress. Apparently, he is once again giving into the temptation to go around Congress. Perhaps a few visits to Dictators Anonymous would help.

Now, a round-up of some of the week's best:

Video of the Week:

Jimmy Kimmel asked parents to hide their kids' Halloween candy, tell them that they ate it all, videotape the response, and post it on Youtube. While most of the kids just start crying, and one needs some anger management classes, the last video is hilarious.

Perhaps the parents should have told the kids that they had to give them 50% of the candy for taxes instead.
