This could be (and this is unsubstantiated speculation) the ultimate hatchet job from within the GOP, which must realize that HC is unelectable.

But since they can sell it as a “left wing hatchet job” they can effectively deflect suspicion.

Could backfire and even solidify Cain’s position in the primary race, really saddling them with an even bigger problem.

And if Can makes a strong showing in the primaries and still loses out to Romney in the convention then it will also not reflect well on the GOP.
