Charles Krauthammer Says Cain Is in ‘Over His Head’ on Foreign Policy After Libya Flub

(By Tiffany Gabbay, The Blaze) - Addressing Herman Cain’s recent hiccup answering a question about his position on Libya, Fox News contributor and syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer said he thinks Cain is in over his head where foreign policy is concerned.

During a campaign speech, Cain explained the flub away, saying he only paused “to gather his thoughts.” He added, “Remember if you’ve been asked 7 or 8 different questions on 7 or 8 different topics and then all of the sudden somebody switches to Libya, and they are not clear with the question, before I shoot from the lip, I gather my thoughts.”

Krauthammer, however, did not think having to juggle multiple questions was a sufficient enough reason, saying, “To say ‘I was thrown 8 questions on different topics’ is not a great defense if you are running for the presidency.” He went on to say, “I think he’s over his head, he’s winging it, particularly on foreign affairs.”
