BURBANK, Calif. (AP) -- Herman Cain thinks Rick Perry is a good governor, Newt Gingrich is brilliant and Michele Bachmann is a very nice lady.

I guess Romney won’t be picking Cain for VP!
Looks like someone didn’t watch the last debate where each candidate was asked who on this stage they could consider for VP. Cain said Romney as long as he could replace his own fiscal plan with Herm’s 9-9-9 plan.
“Nice hair”
If you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
Cain did not say he would pick Romney. He said it was a game show question, and that he would ‘consider’ Romney if he would drop some of his foolish positions and go w 9-9-9. But Cain also said he would consider Newt. He did not say he would actually pick either one of them. Please don’t smear Cain w false quotes. Be accurate.
I was accurate. I said could not would and quoted him as best I could recall. Cain and Mitt are the most alike of any of the candidates in ideas and it shows that they respect each other. Romney had previously said he wanted a Cheney type VP which many took as Newt and Cain seems to also considering the same approach.
How accurate was it not to mention that Cain said he would consider Newt?
Cain did a great job... The whole interview is here http://www.therightscoop.com/herman-cain-on-the-tonight-show/
Cain and Mitt are NOTHING alike.
Cain is honest, Christian and conservative who sticks to his guns.
Romney is a lying, cultist, RINO who flip flops more than people can count.
Did a 180 on Perry. Good governor? New strategy or did he get Romney and Perry mixed up?
Cain fans wont be happy he wasn’t still bashing Perry.
amazing that the state of GA has....
two viable candidates for pres. this cycle
...of course, the West Coast (Land of Fruits & Nuts)
is void of them for the first time in years.
Thanks for the link ! Love Cain , but he seemed to come across as a bit cocky .
**SNICKER**
If a "flip flops/falsehood" could turn a (jet) fan blade once every minute
...OBama, $HRILLary (heck!..the entire current Federal Administration)
& for that matter, Romney & Perry could / would propel a Dream Liner to
Hypersonic speeds...WARP speed if theoretically possible.
...if energy/work were converted to speed.
I agree w you on all points. The most important point I was trying to make is that by no means did Cain suggest he would seriously consider Romney. He called the question ‘game show’, meaning ‘not serious’. Even then he didn’t say he’d go for Romney. I don’t want the rumor to get started on FR that Cain said he’s seriously consider Romney. Nothing could be further from the truth.
It is very amazing. I’m on the Cain Train myself, and it’s picking up steam. ;)
I dont want the rumor to get started on FR that Cain said hes seriously consider Romney. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The Mitt bots and Perry supporters have already been spreading that rumor as a reason not to vote for Cain.
And, yes, nothing could be further from the truth.
Besides, the idea of Cain choosing Romney is ludicrous. Candidates pick VPs who cover their weak areas and Romney (being touted as ‘mr business’ can’t hold a candle to Cain in the business area and wouldn’t give Cain any benefit. He would be much better choosing Newt, Bolton, even Palin.
So Romney as a VP possibility is a complete non-issue.
You said it well!
Yep, and then h went on to say Newt, whom he called ‘brilliant’ on the Tonight Show. I think he likes Newt and if Newt would settle for VP, I’d be okay with that. Newt would bring the experience Cain lacks.
I like Cain and I am ok with his answers. The fact that he said Perry was a good Governor, made me think that he thought Perry should remain a Governor.
