This is what I was telling my hubby today. I want to hear more from them on "Stop the Spending", "Balance the Budget Amendment", then get down to the nuts and bolts of a tax reform.

I don't think this 999 catchy line is something to hang our hats on and Vote for Cain just because he keeps repeating that shtick.

If that is the case, then we can't fault Pelosie for saying "We have to pass this bill, before we know what's in it".

Cain's is elect me, then you will find out what 999 is. Oh, there are some that THINK they know, but REALLY? The devil is in the details.

I guess that makes Reagan a RINO ?

Not at all, and that is NOT what I said. Reagan's divorce was obviously beyond his control; his first wife left him.

My rather obvious point is that marital fidelity matters in the presidency, and Newt fails in spades in this department. And yes, Newt IS a RINO.

Why is it such a little known fact that Herman Cain at one time was chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank? That is one hell of an impressive qualification for a presidential candidate, especially when we’re in the middle of a financial crisis. How many past presidents have we had with that kind of financial background? I can’t think of any.

In that case, we institute the long fought-over bill that requires two-thirds of Congress, a hyper-majority if you will, to raise tax rates.

>> Newt has been playing it smart. In the debates and in his speeches, he has not done anything to rile up the supporters of his opponents to swear against every voting for him. <<

Really? I met Newt in person in 2007 and that's precisely what he did. The guy was such a blowhard egotist and impersonal jerk (moreso than any of the dozen big name politicians I met that day) that I swore I would never vote for him after our brief handshake and photo-op together. And he wasn't even running for office back then, just touting his books!

From what I hear, other freepers that have met him in person have had similar experiences.

“I don’t see Huntsman having a chance.,,,”

Sadly there is no accounting for irrational hate from the right. But people have only tentatively committed and the most solid candidate with a flawless platform and 100% ability to beat Obama could still be the last one standing.

Huh? Who says I “don’t recognize” anything? You brought up divorce and ONLY divorce, and that’s what I commented back about. “What’s appalling is that,” after YOU brought it up and I commented back about it, you ADD adultery to the mix and accuse me of not “recognizing” it.

Seek help.

It’s obvious he has a huuuuuuge ego.

It’s a shame cause he has many positives to go with his negatives.
