Apples and oranges.
Since Cain has never held political office, he is a debate society Conservative. Talks the talk, but no way to tell how he would walk the walk. He’s an empty vessel.
With his extensive political experience, Perry is an excellent governing conservative. He has to deal with real world issues, been re-elected in a conservative state, and maintained a fairly steady conservative direction. As it is when you work a real job, you make mistakes, lose some battles, and say occasional stupid things. Overall, he’s done a lot of good things for Texas and should be a steady President.
Cain is an empty vessel huh........................Phhhtttt
Same old, same old. Perry is a professional, career politician with all of the baggage establishment candidates always have. The record of governors becoming President in the last 100 years, except for Reagan, is very poor; Wilson, Coolidge, FDR, Carter, Clinton, Bush. Is this what we really want, more "pay to play", "Crony Capitalism", business as usual?
I don't want anyone with Perry's type of career politician executive experience. That type of government "experience" is possessed by most of the scoundrels who have gotten us into this mess.
Doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result is a sign of insanity. We have had enough and are not going down that road again.
You wish!
BTW, what is a "fairly steady conservative direction"? Can we rely on somebody that "should be a steady president"?
You're using some qualifying language there.
“With his extensive political experience, Perry is an excellent governing conservative. He has to deal with real world issues, been re-elected in a conservative state, and maintained a fairly steady conservative direction”
But he doesn’t have any plan to defend. All he can do is say “cut taxes.”
Cain has something specific and he knows it inside-out.
