What are you laughing at? You have a problem with Herman Cain? 37% in the FL straw poll is not something I’d be laughing at. Herman Cain is a great American, and we really couldn’t ask for a better nominee.

I tell you what, I am Sarah Palin supporter (and a Cain supporter, and less so a Perry supporter), but you Sarah and only Sarah supporters are really starting to turn me off BIG TIME!

“37% in the FL straw poll is not something I’d be laughing at.”

Michele Bachmann won the AMES straw poll six weeks ago. How is she doing as a result.

Romney did not participate at all. Palin wasn’t even on the ballot. I wouldn’t draw too many conclusions from garnering 896 votes in a straw poll in a state of 30+ million.

Count me in as a Sarah ONLY person. I like Cain but he is not ready to go prime time in the top spot. FL straw poll is not the primary. It will bring down perry a few pegs but when the dust settles Romney/Perry will both be up there but diminished. Sarah has when it takes to come in and mop up. I guess you did not see her campaign her tail off in 2008. If it had not been for McCain holding her back she might have pulled it off.

You’re already turned off to Sarah. Don’t try to blame her supporters for that. Michelle Bachmann won the Iowa straw poll and where is she today? We’re 19 months away from the next election - these polls will come and go. Rudy won a few straw polls too. They don’t mean all that much this early in the game - except to you and the media.

I think you got us Palin supporters read wrong. We are more like you than you think, and I bet if polled - if the field stays just as it is who do we want to win, it would be Cain hands down. And who in the field would we want most to be a running mate with Palin, it would probably also be Cain.

You may find the odd ball exception, but the vast majority of us Palin supporters love Cain. Oh and so does Sarah.

There’s nothing wrong with being pro a particular candidate. Palin’s supporters simply believe she’s waiting for the right time to enter. There are people that are only Perry supporters, Cain supporters, Bachmann supporters, Paul supporters, etc. It’s part of the process. At least some of us will eventually have to choose a new candidate. That’s what primaries are for.

Sarah Palin’s agenda and mine are like two rails of the same track. Very much congruous and parallel. However she needs to get in pronto, start developing a nationwide organization, establish structure in every state, and start major fund raising.

But if she decides not to get in, I do have an extremely viable candidate in Herman Cain. He will receive my campaign contributions.

Any one’s guess what percentage of black vote he gets if the nominee? He has to hurt 0Bama on his 94% constituency.

Really? So, you haven't been bothered by all of the nasty, snarling posts by PDSers on the Palin threads over the last two and a half years? Or the attacks that are routinely leveled against anyone who dares to disagree with Perry on the Perry threads?

Sounds to me like you're harboring some double standards.
