"He was FOR extending hand over date in IRAQ."

So what? And how do you know that?

He supporetd MCPAIN in 2000.

Steve Forbes. He supported (that's how it's spelled) Steve Forbes, and shared Forbes' initial concern that GWB was not conservative enough. Since the primaries both have come to support Bush.

Care to provide links for the rest of your assertions?

I know he thought about running AGAINST Bob Kerrey -- is that what you mean when you said he donated to Kerrey once?

iraq hand over deadline , and he didn't agree with BUSH.

Here is what I found.

In the 90's he donated $$ to Sen. Bob kerrey of NE( whose vote gave us the Clinton Tax increase, and who is pro-choice).

Really? So he supported McCain for two weeks? Geez .... that's terrible .... we'd better not vote for Cain .... LOL ..... oh, have you come up with links for any of this stuff, or did someone just send you an email called "bad scary things about Herman Cain" and you decided to post items all over FR?

Yeah, that's what I thought .....

well, thats true, I meant his positions, especially his economic positions. I was just thinking in national terms, unfortunately there is still a misconception that African Americans and others are better off with democrat policies when the exact opposite is true. It is sad that it would take a Rep black Senator to change this, but the truth is it might open a lot of eyes and cut into the dim black and hispanic votes, he will have an especially high profile, which he can use to this end. I think all the folks at the NAACP are about at tipping point, they just need someone to push them a little bit and the whole structure will be exposed for what it is.

So anyway, if your fine with either then it can't hurt going for Cain.

I am planning to vote for Cain, but after checking his site, there is no iformation on his stance on illegal immigration that I can find.

Anyone know of any statements he has made on this subject?

If this is the same person I'm thinking of, why isn't he a featured speaker at the GOP convention? That would be a nice counterweight to Barack Obama at the Democrat convention.

Thanks for the good news. My teenage son just came back from Turner Field and said there were about 20 Cain supporters, mostly teenagers, handing out flyers before the Braves game. He said they were getting a great response.

Cain has organized a great grassroots campaign. I've never worked on a campaign before, but so far I've put up 150 Cain yard signs mostly on the south side of Atlanta trying to reach black voters. A Cain victory would be the Democrats worse nightmare.

Wrong, this is what he said back in May. Cain wrote that he thought President Bush should make the decision, if Bush feels we should delay the handover, then we should delay the handover; if Bush feels we should proceed then we should proceed as planned.

I know you don't give a crap about the facts. You ain't gonna vote for that boy anyway. I'm writing this for the others who might have the misfortune of reader your junk. Go to www.cainforussenate.com and look under the "news" section. read for yourselves and pay no attention to the myrmidons.

No need to get nasty. I can't find the article to which you refer in the News section of the Cain campaign website. Just post a link to the specific statement, or cut and paste it, and suggest that you think KQQL may be in error based on that. The light touch is usually the more effective touch. Just my opinion. Regards.

I still remember the days when everyone bashed me here for saying Spector will win, because of W support for him.

This why Cain's donation to Bob Kerrey matters.

(Bob Kerrey) Provided the 50th vote in the senate(Gore being #51) to help pass the Clinton Tax Hike.

Robert Kerrey (D) Overall ACU rating = 8
http://acuratings.com/acu.cgi?ACT=3&STATE=NE&YEAR=2000

Why would any conservative give money to a PRO TAXING (Bob Kerrey) democrat who has an ACU rating of 8?

I wonder if Kerrey returned the favor by being one of the donors from outside Ga. that have provided 70% of Cain's campaign contributions.
