Republican 2012 presidential candidates Republican 2012 presidential candidates Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich met in a Lincoln-Douglas style debate on current economic and social issues facing the U.S.
You nailed it.
Excellent Debate!! I want a REPEAT. On Foreign Policy. Herman Cain is really good with some personal vignettes. REALLY GOOD!
I agree. This has been great. WE WANT MORE!
Because Newt's lapel mike isn't working - simple...
My pleasure. Production organization engineering isn’t a bad way to think of it.
Disclaimer: I’m NOT in production - in business management. But I’m in a small (<100 person) facility that’s part of a major enterprise and I’ve worked with LeanSS enough to see its power.
Best,

I’ll take this up in Freepermail, I have no interest in helping you disturb the thread.
There, fixed it for you.
Ya know what’s really good about this? The fact that these two gentlemen are laying out plans and ideas in a fashion that voters can understand..not 30 second blips as is usual in debates. The rest of the republicans should be glad that this is going on tonight.
I love this set up. I agree that Americans are the real winners tonight.
He’s already solved the problems Newt and Cain are proposing solutions for. Why would he need to debate? He could just report the results from his solutions.
Actually, defined contribution is the term you mean, and Cain just gave a thorough answer using and explaining it. But the question he deferred to Newt - with humor- was about defined benefit. Cain is quite literal and wasn’t sure what was being referred to. If you’re looking for evidence to confirm your thesis that Cain is shaky on policy knowledge, which I think you are, you go ahead and use that. personally, I think the objective evidence is that Cain holds his own with Newt. I wonder if that would be said of you. Pfffft..
We’re looking more at an ad for the President and VP of the United States.
Remember....the VP is the head of the HOUSE!
We just might have our winning ticket!!!
This is the first time I've had that thought, but I've been having it a lot over the last hour....
“I am going to donate to both tonight!!”
Great idea!
I like Cain’s answers about letting the states decide how to use block grants.
Jim Thompson is the best FReeper ever. onyx is a close second, though.
I don’t know....I think Onyx beats him. :) Both great people but Onyx has the “it” factor.
Not me. I think both men are head and shoulders above the rest but I thought that coming in.
No I really would prefer Newt as President...he’s proven he can manuver Washington and get congress to act....I just am not convinced Cain is ready for this office...he’s got a ways to go IMO...and we can’t afford the time he will need to adapt to Washington....this is seen even in the dialogue tonight
It is heavenly!
I am thoroughly enjoying this debate!
