Just contributed to Newt's Campaign
None | Today | self

Posted on 11/10/2011 4:13:43 PM PST by Hammerhead

Full-on once every year or two vanity....

I'm officially on the Newt bandwagon.

Cain will fade (never considered him Presidential. 'Secretary of Something' definetly.

It will come down to Romney and Newt.

However, I last contributed to Fred Thompson and he dropped out 5 days later.

Here's hoping Newt doesn't stab us in the back.

Fingers crossed.

Personally, I don’t really see any sign of Cain fading.

I heard him on the radio last night.

While he expressed vigorous opposition to “Cap and Trade”, he still seems to believe that AGW is real.

Good policy wonk, but he’s wrong about AGW.

Also, IMHO, no white boy stands a chance to win against 0bamao0, no matter how bad the economy gets.

"Cain will fade"

Now, that's funny. I don't care who you are!

A newly released Public Policy Polling (PPP) Ohio survey this evening shows Cain with 34 percent support, Gingrich with 20 percent support, and Mitt Romney with 19 percent support.

No other candidate has more than 5 percent support.

Watch out, you're gonna get flamed by the Cainiacs.

FWIW, I agree. My chrystal ball says Newt will ultimately be the anti-Romney candidate and our last hope to keep mittens off the ticket.

Hey, I knew I was forgetting something today! Thanks for reminding me; I just donated another Uly$$e$ $. Grant to Herman Cain.

:)

Cheers

I must preface by saying I have nothing against Newt (based on the little I know of him), but I just wanted to address something else that you said.

Cain’s not going away. They’re trying to “Sarah Palin” him, but this time they don’t have 3-4 years to do it. They only have a matter of weeks (days could even be appropriate), and people aren’t buying in to it. The harder they try to parade accusations against him, the more people will support him. Satan’s principles (the Saul Alinsky tactic, if you will), is that it has to be subtle and long term. If Satan (in this case his followers), come(s) at you in all this/their grotesque fullness, people say “AAHH NO!” Thus, it’s not working.

You could have just said you support Newt and left it that.

Now it’s just a troll vanity.

Yea, I gave $200 to Fred. How did that work out? He was running interference for his buddy McNumbnut’s.

I have giv’n Cain $100 and this time it is money well spent. Ebony and Ivory! Cain & Newt!

“If you admit that your judgment is not so good, I’m inclined to agree with you. BTW, will you be around to admit your error should Cain not fade?”

You’ve been here 6 days, yet talking that way to a ten year freeper?

Will you pm me, when Cain is not Potus or VP?

Agreed. It’s like a poisonous mushroom. There are little mushrooms that people eat that are mildly poisonous and they taste horrific and people spit them out, thus, they don’t get poisoned. Then there’s the “Destroying Angel” that tastes good and you keep eating it until it’s too late and you get sick or die.

The liberal tactic relies on having a long time to be subtle and poison slowly or affect change by degrees. They have no time, and are throwing everything at Cain, and it’s not working. People are effectively “spitting” out the nonsense. Cain’s not fading, at least for the moment.

I agree and have given to Cain’s campaign as well. Cain is strong and very brave and I pray that he will prevail.

Yes, the good Man and proven successful Man will get marginalized and you will be left with another RINO Career Politician (Newt) directing your future.

Good Luck with that!

The only weakness I see with Cain is that, as CEO he didn’t have to work with rivals to get policy done. His word was law.

But I think he can overcome that. He’s shown that he’s able to run a brilliant campaign, despite having to run his campaign on mere pennies compared to everybody else.

Hey, we aren’t flaming, we’re “needling” just to get your goat. It’s all in good fun. Don’t take it personally.

The Romneybots and Paulites on the other hand...

Cheers

I’m happy to take bets (friendly of course) on who will not be the eventual nominee coming out of the convention.

And I agree that it will eventually come down to Newt and Romney.

FYI, I’m still undecided at this point. Not terribly enthused with any of my choices.
