Hollywood players didn’t need Sharon Bialek to form a negative impression of GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain. The erstwhile Godfather Pizza CEO has an “R” next to his name, and that’s more than enough reason for most celebrities to vote against him.
But with Bialek’s tale of how Cain allegedly came on to her years earlier coming to light, celebrities have a new reason to smite him. A gaggle of famous folks rushed to Twitter this week to share 140 characters worth of disdain for Cain:
Bette Midler:
“Herman Cain was never vetted About the women he had petted Will all accusers form a line? We have to stop at 999.”Warren Leight, Showrunner for Law and Order: SVU:
“Memo: to Herman Cain/ From SVU Writers Room: This is the moment in the story when your lawyer should ask about cutting a deal.”
Joy Behar:
“Next Godfather’s Pizza promotion: if Herman Cain doesn’t harass you within 30 minutes, your pizza is free”Holly Robinson Peete:
“NOBODY is happier than Herman Cain that the #conradmurray trial verdict is in…time to get his story tight. How do u think he will respond?”Steve Martin:
“Just realized that Herman Cain is an anagram for Reachin’ man.”Conan O’Brien:
“With all this negative attention on Herman Cain right now, I’ll bet Little Caesar is grabbing boobs like there’s no tomorrow.”
Perhaps the only celebrity of note rallying to Cain’s side of late is Clint Eastwood, who called Cain’s life story inspiring and applauded his straight-talk approach.
