Oh come on Sparky.

Look at Cains Fec filings.

He is making contributions from his own Corpration, then turning around and listing the very same Corp as a vendor.

Now why would an honesty broker do that? couln it be to inflate his fundraising numbers?

He has also obtained numerous loans from Sun Bank for his campaign. with due dates 12-31-2012.

Yet it’s Perry’s fault he’s not raising money? huh.

Cain is a shooting star, who has reached his arch.

Well, Cain is pushing Romney too, maybe in an indirect manner.

Thanks for the insight you have.

While I agree with you that it is easy to spot the “disruptors”, it is not always easy to see who they are disrupting more.

I know of two thread spammers here on FR who are always working together. One posts one thing and another follows in a certain-kind of methodical form. I’ve seen their Twitter posts too, and they are following a Romney campaign focus right now.

Could be Paubots may be working against every other candidate as you mentioned. Romneybots are tearing down Perry in particular because he is strong enough and has the financial resources to challenge and actually beat Romney. You will see Romneybots who were first posing as Palin supporters dissing Perry, and now they have moved over to pretending to be Cain supporters for the only reason of doing the same thing. Plus the spamming... All one needs to do is check Romney’s site and then do the right searches on Twitter to see some specific things, and you can see some coordination going on there with some of what you see here.

Then I’m sure you have Obamabots on sites too who do their thing to destroy the candidate(s) they are told to destroy, for whatever reason the Obama campaign thinks a particular candidate may be too strong for Obama. Let’s add some Democrats who just use message boards for writing fodder.

So while it is easy to see disruption in comments, it is not easy to know what’s going on behind that disruption.

I enjoyed reading your post about having ideas for a system that would allow different states, across time, to have a first shot at things. However, my thinking process wasn’t that far that I was blaming the Iowa / NH first-time slots. Just know I wasn’t complaining about the secondary changes that had, by the process structure, changed when I asked why everything had to be changed. I was, perhaps simplistically, thinking that it all worked before the way it was, so why did it have to change. I understood the others ie Iowa / NH had to move up too with Florida moving up, the way the rules are currently written. This article explained that really well, and I was glad to have learned that. My question is why Florida felt emboldened to change things around as they when that change affected the entire country.

While I wasn’t thinking of the possible changes you have been considering and how the country might be able to adapt practices that do give all the states their time in the sun, it sounds like you were thinking about it and have some very good thoughts about some things to do.

You should follow up on your thoughts and ideas with some things to submit to whoever one would submit those kinds of things too. (my nativity on that much information showing there, lol) You might be able to make a real difference perhaps! Best wishes if you do!
