Why would we want to hitch our wagon to the guy who is saying 'I am going to create a new way to take money from you and give it to the government'? That message will not win.

I agree. Thank God that all but the most simple minded (Yes I do mean you) understand that isn't what he's saying.

Not even close.

BTW, Perry's done, kaput. I'm just responding because sometimes it's fun to kick dead things.

Putting aside your insults that you seem to think will accomplish anything by doing, who do you think decide the general election? It's not you. It's the guy who doesn't see the difference in the two parties. It's the guy who doesn't pay attention to politics until just before the election because he is too busy working his ass off to keep his family fed and his lights on. He is going to pick the guy who says "I am going to make your life better". Obama got that in 2008 and McCain didn't.

Is Cain's plan a good plan? Sure, it's a good place to start. Is it great for people like us who have skin in the game that think it's sucks that 47% of Americans pay no taxes, hell yeah it is. But to win the General the Conservative has to get most of that 47% to vote for him. They are not going to vote for the guy who is telling them that when he gets elected they are going to lose part of their income and they aren't going to hear you trying to explain how it benefits them in the long run. I will support Cain if he is the Nominee but he can not win the General Election shouting 9-9-9 at every question he is asked and Obama and the left will eat him up for it.

If you disagree, fine, that's your right. But cut out the insults, that's a Leftist tactic and beneath this Community.

OK, let’s start at the very heart of my point; “’I am going to create a new way to take money from you and give it to the government’?”

Do you believe that’s an accurate one sentence assessment of Cain’s plan?
