According to Rush Limbaugh, President Obama might be to blame for the flurry of sex allegations that have dogged Herman Cain for weeks.

“I just don’t think in racial terms first, second or third,” said Limbaugh during his radio show Thursday. “But you know it is possible that all this Herman Cain stuff is coming from Obama[.]”

“Let’s say [Cain] gets the nomination,” Limbaugh added. “Talk about a quandary for black voters. Talk about two pictures, one that that the Democrats wouldn’t want to have to deal with. So I could see after somebody points out the racial aspect. I say, OK maybe the White House would like to take Cain out and not take any chances whatsoever.”
