Better late than never. I like Herman Cain much better than Newt or Perry, but it was silly to argue that he can’t sign because it requires him to “advance” pro-life legislation when this guy is promising to make his “999” tax plan a reality.

Is he still supportive of openly gay people in his staff still, or has he decided against gay lifestyles too? NOT that there’s anything wrong with it...

Just trying to keep up...

Cain has lived an incredible pro life existence, and I don’t think he needed to sign this pledge. These stupid pledges - ALL OF THEM - are simply a way to make the organization that developed the pledge more important.

He’s put more than a million of his OWN money into pro life causes, more than any of the self important bureaucrats with this organization has done. So in a way, I”m sorry he felt the need to play their game. He’s lived it for crying out loud!

Shameful political stunt.

Kind of like Rick Perry claiming he will "secure" the border in one year, even though he is a complete Open-Borders fraud?

Oh wait, that was just Rick Perry LYING his Butt off!

My mistake.

BoingBoing...you seem to be up on all the latest Cain trivia...is he still supportive of openly gay people in his staff still, (NOT that there’s anything WRONG with it) or has he decided against gays, now, too? ...

Just trying to keep up...

What gave you the first clue.

I have never even given him a first look.

Inexperience and unqualified.
IMO.

Apparently people are starting to figure that out.

That's how I feel. Unnecessary pandering that will hurt, not help, him.

Another fine example of Cain talking out both sides of his mouth. In Herman's world expediency trumps principle. That is until hypocrisy catches up with you.

Cain is unapoletically Pro-Life, as is Perry.

On Illegal Immigration, on the other hand, Perry completely falls down, where Cain stands tall.

You are right, especially since he’s made a point of saying “I DO NOT PANDER.” Of course, he’s probably hired some “consultants” now and I bet they advised him to do this. He should have ignored the advice.

“Shameful political stunt.”

That is exactly what this is.

This is just another do-over in a long string of do-overs for Cain.

Spent a million bucks of his own money for a pro life outreach.

What have YOU done?

Rick Perry. He’s for securing the border, exceedingly generous “opt outs” of forced vaccinations and...what else? I forget.
