Attack Perry, Attack Bachman, Attack Cain, but say nothing about Romneys Obama care for Mass.
I have to pick someone to vote for and it won’t be Romney.

Here we go again...
When Bachmann was in the lead, the media tore her down, then Perry, now Cain.. The media will keep doing this, and many here seem to be willing participants, until Romney is nominated.

What I’m getting from my friends and neighbors is that they like the fact that he isn’t a polished politician. He’s real and he’s been out here among the little people in the real world.

Is it just me, or is Herman Cain the only presidential candidate whose credibility is “undermined” by his “gaffes”?
I suppose Mittens’ credibility is not undermined by his flip flops, neither is Perry’s undermined by his attendance at a La Raza meeting.
As far as I’m concerned, the only thing I would consider a “gaffe” at this point is 999, but I know that Mr. Cain is smart enough to be malleable on something like that.
It’s as if the press is turning up the heat on Cain for non-issues, because they have nothing else, and they just want to see if he can take the heat, even though it’s for made-up stuff.

Not voting for RINO Romney...no way...no how!
To: mnehring
Exactly!
These people are human beings. If everything we said was scrutinized (especially by these slimes in he MSM) what would others think about us?
It is beyond disgusting watching conservatives dutifully following the media and Leftists narrative. They must laugh their a$$es off at us at times.

Which one of the candidates is a polished politician?
And what is the criteria for being considered polished?

I'll add to this and say they are scared sh*tless of Cain. Think about it; a successful Black Conservative. This has the potential for the Black Community to NO longer see themselves as victims on the White Liberal Plantation...and they simply cannot allow this to happen without a fight.

Yeah they’ve been saying that “gaffes” will destroy a politician for as long as I can remember.
When John Engler was running for governor of Michigan the first time, he declared that he would “drive his Oldsmobile to Mackinaw Island”. He served 3 terms as governor of Michigan.

That's another good point. I like the fact that he isn't so rigid that he can't adjust to the realities. Absolute opposite of Obama.

Cain’s “gaffes” are just imperfect solutions expressed imperfectly. Maybe I missed the news that Mittzy, perry, or Obumo have achieved perfection. I think Herman is the classiest out there - normal guy, very intelligent, bold yet somewhat humble.

Better to have someone who trips over his words, than someone who skips over his conscience. :-)

What's the problem? Why is beyond disgusting - it is nothing new - it's been going on non stop for three years with the media and in Palin threads and, authors, like Joe McGinnis. What's this - only one week for Cain? This is child's play.
To: rzman21
Cain's credibility has taken some hits in the last week or so based on his poor choice of words and his ever evolving political agenda. Whether it be the illegal bug zapper fence, his daily updates on his abortion stance or the changes to his 999/909 tax plan, Cain can only blame himself. Without a governing or legislative record to be judged on, all Cain has left is his political rhetoric. Hard to sustain a campign on words alone. The fellow in the WH right now knows that better than anyone. Just words, just don't cut it!
