I don’t blame Cain or anyone for backing Romney in 2008. It was a race between McCain, huck, and Romney in the primaries and he was by far the best of the three. Huck was/is a big government social conservative statist. McCain is, well, McCain. Romney had a mixed story as MA governor, but a good business background and success with the 2002 winter Olympics. Of the three, I voted and campaigned for him in FL as to try like he’ll to keep McCain out of the nomination. He was a certain loser.
Now, I have completely written him off for 2012 because events have changed and we need a clear anti-obamacare candidate and solid conservative. In 2008 we had no conservative option.

I agree 100%. Even Jim DeMint was for Romney in 08. He’d have done better than McCain. In 2012 we have a different field and a different set of variables. Romney is not needed and will hopefully fold his tent early in the primary season.
