Logic, not their strong suit

Herman Cain was once -- as hard as it is to believe -- was once the front-runner for the GOP nomination. And considering that his biggest accomplishment was dropping hints while conducting job interviews that is quite a fact, in and of itself. But there's a reason he had the right-stuff for the Right-wing and that was his comfort with saying two completely contradictory things in adjoining sentences.
Cain has denied the [sex harassment] accusations and says “nothing has gone wrong” in terms of the campaign’s mechanics. But he tells CNN’s “State of the Union” that some people “are heavily influenced by perception more so than reality.” Cain also says he supports “targeted identification” in weeding out potential terrorists.
So just because there are people saying Herman Cain sexually harassed them it's a perception issue and that's wrong. But if you're of the right brownish hue Herman Cain perceives you might be a terrorist.

And it makes complete sense to the modern Republican brain.

Romney? Cain? Gingrich? The only way any of these could be a serious threat to win the general election is if the Democrat in the race was trying to sabotage his own side. Oh, wait.

"Republican brain" is rather a misnomer as is is more of an unorganized neural ganglia of the reptilian variety, rather than an actual functioning brain. Perry, Bachmann, and Cain nicely epitomize this phenomenon.
