I agree. Seems to me the odds of gaining the nomination are something like:
Romney - 50%
Perry - 20%
Palin - 20%
Cain - 5%
All Others Combined - 5%
***Sadly agree, Cain couldnt beat Obama. Hard to believe so many people here are on his bandwagon. No political experience, thats a deal killer right there. On the job training for POTUS? Please.
Flame away. Its all Ill be saying on the matter, not here to upset anyone.***
I hesitate to post because I don’t want to come across as anti-Palin (I’m not) and I’m not trying to disrupt this thread, but I do want to address this issue.
I think one of the reason’s that Cain does have a shot is that he’s not a politician. Most Americans are sick and tired of the mess politicians and lawyers have put us in over the last 50 years. A guy who’s a smart, great manager who actually has real world experience trying to keep business afloat while dealing with Washington’s nonsense is exactly what I’m looking for.
Most of these political wonks never really have to live with the laws that they foist on the rest of us. They don’t understand how they suffocate and strangle business and free enterprise.
But Cain does. His lack of political office may end up being his biggest selling point. (I brought this issue up to my husband this morning and he said, “That’s a huge PLUS in my book!”) People are ready to try something different. What we’ve been voting for hasn’t been working.
For that matter, I do believe that Palin gets this, too.
The high pitched is only when she gives a speech OUTSIDE in front of a huge crowd. NEVER during an interview or a debate. LEARN about Sarah’s life, then we can talk.
If Sarah thinks that Herman could get the nomination Sarah would not get in. However Sarah if she gets in she knows she will win and could use Herman and all the rest to restore America. I am not sure Sarah wants to risk it, that Herman will not make it. Sarah will fundamentally change the direction of this country and the folks will demand it.
“So NOTHING negative can ever be overcome? The practice with interviews shes had since then, getting more experience on the national scene, her ability to answer off the cuff questions of the press with ease will have absolutely NO effect. Gosh, Id better go back to school because I failed Algebra the first time around. Maybe the teacher thought my new understanding was a fluke and only judged me on my first try.”
She didn’t get better with more practice. She’s more like Perry. That’s why she doesn’t want to have so many debates. She looks good now but if we were to see her flub and fumble over and over, she’ll be just another savior that couldn’t deliver.
You obviously don’t understand what sarcasm is.
(or what it isn’t)
You do realize that you're repeating the left-wing, MSM talking points against Palin, do you not?
No other prospective candidate brings more excitement and numbers to the table, as Palin does. That's a fact which cannot be spun out of existence by the left, or the RINO establishment.
Don't buy into their lies and spin. They're more worried about Palin stepping into the race than they let on. If the last three years should have taught you anything, it's that they fear her more than any other person on the right.
Think with it.
I see you’re still on FR. Isn’t that nice. I’m so glad that you didn’t mean it when you said you’d leave when I proved you lied. It shows real chutzpah.
Palin would endorse Herman Cain. If she’s the kingmaker, then he is the man who would be king.

“The high pitched is only when she gives a speech OUTSIDE in front of a huge crowd. NEVER during an interview or a debate. LEARN about Sarahs life, then we can talk.”
No, she has that voice every time she’s on Fox News with Greta.
Hillary would lose a lot worse than Obama, The blacks would stay home if Zero was stabbed in the back.
You need to think though the story line before you make funny comments like that.
See Sarah's Indianola speech from just a month ago:
Did Mr Gibson, or any other MSM a-hole, ever ask candidate Obama a similar question? I don't remember it - what I remember is them filling in the answers for him i.e. "my Muslim....errr...Christian faith".
Your comment is a complete contradiction of what was reported by CNN after one of her impromptu interviews in Iowa.
First of all, it's polite to ping who you are discussing.
Secondly, the OP, Brices Crossroads, is a stanch Palin supporter.
So! You'd guess wrong.
>> “You know, what I really don’t understand from people who post on Fr, meaning not the du liberals, is that Sarah haters really hate her viscerally - with no logic.” <<
.
No, the PDSers are mostly not a real part of FR.
They are a part of what Palin’s presidency is going to dismantle, and they know it. Their fear is real, and reasonable.
Not so.
I would hate to see Herman Cain wasted as a VP. He is much more qualified than to have him cooling his heels in a do-nothing job. I would much rather see him in a cabinet post or an economic advisor. I want him at the table in a Palin administration.
But that is the beauty of Palin being President - because
she would have the foresight to change the image of the
VP position to be a “do something job”. She knows the
“good old boys” days are over...
Here's a more recent inteview.
CAIN: I support the Second Amendment.
BLITZER: So you dont? Whats the answer on gun control?
CAIN: The answer on gun control is I support, strongly support, the Second Amendment. I dont support onerous legislation thats going to restrict peoples rights in order to be able to protect themselves as guaranteed by the Second Amendment.
BLITZER: Should states or local governments be allowed to the gun situation . . .
CAIN: Yes
BLITZER: So the answer is yes?
CAIN: Yes. The answer is yes, that should be a states decision.
Count me as one who thinks “articulate” and “degree” describe Oblabla, and are not necessarily qualifiers.
