Prepare for the Onslaught...

Herman Cain's wife, Gloria, said that the only way the sex harrassment claims could be real is if he had a split personality.

http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2011/11/herman_cain_s_wife_says_he_might_have_a_split_personality_.html

Some say it was a joke, others say shes serious, we don't really care. The problem were seeing is here:
"How many Americans have multiple personalities? Somewhere between zero and 9 million. Multiple personality disorder, which is now known as dissociative identity disorder, is highly controversial. Those who believe it’s a legitimate diagnosis say that it affects between 1 and 3 percent of the population. The severity of the illness can vary, and it's claimed that most sufferers don’t know they have it. Many doctors, however, want the disorder stricken from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders—the bible of psychiatric illnesses. They believe that the patients really are mentally ill, but that they merely act out the multiple personalities in response to suggestions from the therapist." (Slate)

There WILL be some story on a major news channel about this in particular.

Worst case scenario, media interest means it may suck for a few days, maybe 2 weeks max. They will bring out stats saying DID isn't real or that its real and in explosive numbers. There will be no middle ground. And they WILL bring out the dumbest people to discuss their DID, and it will get worse from there, until it ends.

So... I guess we'll be on CNN soon.

The best case scenario, however, is people just say it, and they move on. Lets hope for that, cause I really don't want to end up defending my mental illness OR my rapist, ever.
