11.48am: CNN has run more footage of Cain's pushing and shoving match with journalists about an hour ago.
Cain was doing a tour of a high-tech research facility, with Cain telling the assembled media:
Let me say one thing, I'm here with these doctors and that's what I want to talk about. So don't even bother asking me all these questions you're curious about, don't even bother.
The journalists then quietly left – no, strangely enough they continued to pepper Cain with questions about sexual harassment. Cain then lost his cool somewhat:
What did I say? Excuse me! Excuse me! What part of no don't these people understand.
Suddenly it's not so much fun to be the front-runner, eh? A few weeks ago Cain couldn't get journalists to give him the time of day. Now this.
"12 noon: The New York Times's Caucus blog reports from the scene of the Cain v the Media heavyweight bout this morning in a hotel in Virginia:
Upon emerging, a mob of hotel security and other campaign personnel pushed back against various assembled photographers and a little bit of a scrum and tussle ensued, with at least one newspaper photographer taking a hard blow to the face.
All the while, Mr. Cain, who looked unusually agitated in the center of it all, was screaming, "Excuse me! Excuse me! Excuse me!"
