Here’s what we learned from Herman Cain’s appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” last night: sexual harassment allegations can be funny and the elusive Mrs. Cain is, in fact, a Democrat.
“My wife is a Democrat, but that doesn’t mean that’s how she votes all the time,” Cain told Kimmel.
Not much is known about Gloria Cain, the Republican presidential frontrunner’s wife of 43 years. We were supposed to meet her recently, but the Cain campaign abruptly canceled a planned appearance on Fox News. Last week, the Atlanta Journal Constitution profiled Gloria Cain and discovered that not only is she a Democrat, but that she “has voted in Democratic primaries and runoffs numerous times since 2000 — including the 2008 presidential primary that Barack Obama won with 66 percent of the vote, according to local voting records.”

Cain voted for Clinton???
So was GWB’s wife, and his daughters.
I'm sure Mark Blockhead will be out telling us she was part of Operation Chaos.

I see so IGNORE the facts, and believe the spin Perry says about it NOW?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_perry
In April 1993, Perry, while serving as Texas agriculture commissioner, expressed support for the effort to reform the nation’s health care, describing it as “most commendable”.[27] The health care plan, first revealed in September, was ultimately unsuccessful due to Republican congressional opposition.[28][29][30][31][32] In 2005, after being questioned on the issue by a potential opponent in the Republican governor primary, Perry said that he expressed his support only in order to get Clinton to pay more attention to rural health care.[33]
I'm pretty sure Mrs Bush was leaned democrat outside of presidential races. George W hinted at it himself.
The voter checklist is available for anyone who wants to look at it.
Hmm Cain’s record. Well how about you watch this video of Cain dismantling Clinton over Clinton Care in 1993

your pride is getting in the way of your common sense.
Well she certainly won’t be getting my vote.
Course I wouldn’t have voted for Nancy Reagan either.
Look, I’m very favorable towards Cain and have done some writing for him and some writing about him going back to January. And this doesn’t change anything for me, but it might end up being a problem. Or maybe not.
But don’t even start pulling out single issue problems from the 90’s on other candidates. I could see myself changing positions on a single issue here and there long before I could ever be a soul mate with someone who would even consider being a liberal. Straw argument. Apples and oranges. Misses my idea of perspective.
Here’s the link to Newt’s statement on the Obamacare individual mandate that I provided you with last night. This statement was made after the statement in your link.

Hah! My sister LOVES Obama. Can you imagine the Thanksgiving dinner table when I drive up with a Cain bumper sticker on my car?
I know a number of old-timey Democrats, who just can’t wrap their minds around what the party has become. They still think it has room for conservative democrats.
Okay dear Dims, now vote for Cain since he has proven that he can get along with Dims.
100 to 1 they BOTH voted for Obama.
Will the real Newt please stand up?

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday that he strongly supports a federal mandate requiring citizens to buy health insurance – a position that has been rejected by many Republicans, including several who likely will be running against him for the Republican presidential nomination.
Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Gingrich told host David Gregory that he continues to advocate for a plan he first called for in the early 1990s as a Congressman, which requires every uninsured citizen to purchase or acquire health insurance.
Gregory played a clip of Gingrich speaking during an appearance on Meet the Press in October 1993:
“I am for people, individuals — exactly like automobile insurance — individuals having health insurance and being required to have health insurance. And I am prepared to vote for a voucher system which will give individuals, on a sliding scale, a government subsidy so we insure that everyone as individuals have health insurance.”
Gregory asked Gingrich if he would criticize GOP presidential rival Mitt Romney, whose “Romneycare” health program enacted during his time as Governor in Massachusetts mandated that all uninsured purchase health insurance.
Gingrich replied he would not make it an issue in the campaign and said he agreed with key aspects of Romneycare.
“I agree that all of us have a responsibility to pay—help pay for health care,” Gingrich said, adding, “I've said consistently we ought to have some requirement that you either have health insurance or you post a bond ...”
Gingrich also admitted that his proposal is a “variation” of the individual mandate, a key component of the Obamacare legislation President Obama signed into law in 2010.
The position staked out by Gingrich appears to be at odds with leading conservative critics of Obamacare, who argue that the law requiring citizens to purchase a private insurance policy is not constitutional.
The Obama administration is currently facing three lawsuits arguing that the federal mandate is unconstitutional, including one filed by a coalition of 26 states.
The issue is on track for a Supreme Court decision in the summer of 2012, which would make it a likely hot-button topic heading into the elections.
Conservative GOP critics like Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli say the mandate is unconstitutional because although Congress can regulate commerce, it can’t require people to engage in a particular “economic activity” just because they live in the U.S.
Conservative judicial experts have also taken exception to the claim made by Gingrich and supporters of the Obamacare law that mandating health insurance is the same as the government requirement to purchase car insurance, noting that driving a car is a privilege provided by states and not a constitutional right.
Cucinelli says that “buying auto insurance is voluntary, since you are only required to purchase it if you choose to drive on public roads. But buying health insurance under the new federal law is not voluntary, as you are required to buy it just by virtue of the fact that you are breathing. The federal government has never before in history exercised its regulatory power to require someone to buy a product or service as a condition of residence in the United States.”
Gingrich, though, seemed to disagree with that notion on Sunday, though he was quick to point out the differences between his plan and the federal health law.
“In, in the first place, Obama basically is trying to replace the entire insurance system, creating state exchanges, building a Washington-based model, creating a federal system,” Gingrich told NBC’s David Gregory. “I believe all of us—and this is going to be a big debate—I believe all of us have a responsibility to help pay for healthcare …”
Romney has not come under fire for not disowning his health care plan, which has caused private health care insurance rates to skyrocket as patient services have declined in Massachusetts.
Gingrich's position quickly came under fire from several conservative blogs on Sunday.
“He tried to distinguish his mandate from the Obama mandate, but with little success,” the American Federalist Journal wrote on Sunday.
“Sandbagging your fellow Republicans in Congress and offering tacit support for a key (unconstitutional) component of Obamacare is a very strange way to begin a run in a Republican primary. Not a strong start.”
The Wall Street Journal called Gingrich’s description of an ideal healthcare plan with mandates a “pretty good description of what the Democratic Congress passed into law last year.”
The Journal continued: “Beginning in 2014, most Americans who don't have insurance will be required to pay a fee, with many, depending on income, getting subsidies to help buy coverage through state-based exchanges.”
The conservative website Red State said Gingrich “won’t exactly endear him to the Tea Party crowd or the reform minded movement sweeping the GOP.”
