If Cain "had the goods," it wouldn't matter to me if he got elected. Saved is saved. That is the point, and it's the only point. We need someone with a vision and a plan for bringing America back from the edge.

Herman is a great guy. He just doesn't have it. Not even close.

Total idiocy. Cain is the ONLY candidate with the courage and intellectual honesty to not give a focus group tested sound bite answer to complex serious issues.

Apparently the way the RINO Media Establishment defines it a “Great leader” is a plastic phoney who gives absurd non answer when asked tough questions

Good information, thanks for posting. As a general premise, I’m with you: we so badly want somebody to carry the guidon that we are tempted to overlook the requirement that the candidate actually be able to do the job. There might be a great place for Cain in someone’s cabinet, but I’m not comfortable he’s got the goods YET.

Colonel, USAFR

Cain did very well on Fox News Sunday. He was very effective on the Israel question by the way. Cain stated the Palestinians would get “absolutely nothing” from a Cain Presidency. That was music to my ears! Cain will also leave the decisionmaking and negotiating to Israel. He couldn’t have said that any better.

Also, I love how Cain is scaring up all the Liberal Republicans on Free Republic into a frenzy!

My heart sank to my boots, guys. But Cain is honest, he just needs to come up with ideas to get us back on the right track, ideas that will work in the present circumstances. Whether he gets the nomination or not — lay that aside. We are so lucky this man stepped forward. He’s terrific. A lion. Think of the smearing he’ll take from the MSM, the toll it will take on his family and friends. It’s really horrible even to contemplate, but we know the left and Obama will let nothing stand in their way to destroy him. (i.e. Justice Thomas.)Well, whoever gets the nod will get the same treatment. Sigh. They’re desperately trying to dig up dirt on Christie.

I like him alot also but he needs to prep better. He also got tripped up on Wallace’s question regarding “the right of return” for the Pali’s. He either had a brain fart or he wasnt familiar with the phrase and it’s meaning.

Here is a notion.

How about supposed “Conservatives” around here drop the scum bag Alinsky tactics and try telling us why we should support their chosen candidate rather then spending all their time trashing the other candidates.

so, a single interview is now the entire basis for evaluating a candidate. Cool. I guess we can eliminate everyone who hasn’t answered every question perfectly. This includes every human on earth including the previous 42 men who held the office. I guess we need someone no less than Jesus himself to run in 2012.

Please watch the video, listen to Herman in his own words, and then explain to me how he can be your choice. Explain how you get from his promises to his delivering on them when he admits on National TV that he can't.

I agree with you, however, about the "total idiocy" part.

He's smart enough to surround himself with people who would, unlike the current one who surrounds us with people who would drive us further down the road to ruin or other candidates who would surround themselves with career politicians. Which would you prefer?

I’m gonna let you in on a little secret.

Nobody has the plan to bring America back from the edge, because we’ve already fallen over. It’s pathetic that so few of us realize it yet.

Get right with God. Get your personal affairs in order as best as you can. America is in free fall, and we’re about to hit the bottom. Total collapse is imminent.

Wish I had better news, but that’s how I see it at this point.

Now, there may be a visionary and a leader out there that can lead us up out of the abyss, but I think we’re going to fall first.

Overall, I think Cain did well. He certainly presents an outside-the-Beltway view of how the world should and does work.

He did kind of slip up when Wallace asked him about the "Right of Return" thing.

Cain froze as if he didn't know what the phrase meant. In his defense, I doubt if most Americans know what the phrase means. It's just one of those things that enter the lexicon that everybody assumes everybody else understands.

Once he caught on, he pretty much knocked it out of the park. It's up to Israel to decide how to handle the issue.

Which I still don't quite understand. I guess its akin to the controversy that was stirred up when West Germans tried to reclaim property that East Germans were living on after The Walll came down.

I think. A little help?

factually that my allegiances lay elsewhere

When you try to hide your true allegiences by posting a lie, you lose the argument.

How about you try telling us why we should support Sarah rather then wasting our time trashing everyone else?

Ping you? You're much better off being ignored. If you're not trashing Palin, you're looking for a thread where you can. Trash in, trash out. ;^|

There's only one reason why the Liberotten Misleadia would get behind, or express enthusiasm for, any GOP candidate. If they hoped that their focus on that person would help keep Sarah Palin from sweeping the nomination

Since you’re using Socialist tactics when posting about Cain, a conservative, I will assume for the moment you are a liberal.

Which Liberal Republican candidate for President do you support, Gargantua?

Posting a link to a video and asking folks to watch it, that's "Alinsky" now? Seems to me you have a horse in this race, and it's wearing blinders, Johnnie-me-boy.

I hope Conservatives won't, yet again, lose the race by demanding 100% perfection from THEIR candidates while Liberals sweep themselves into the WH with their radical populist incumbent, no matter how hopelessly and fatally flawed he has demonstrated himself to be.

Your posting history betrays you.

Rather then continue to lie to us, why don't you try making an argument FOR Palin rather the trash talking the other choices?

First you say we've already fallen off the cliff, then you say: "...but I think we’re going to fall first."

Which is it? It can't be both.
