I wanted to like Herman Cain until I heard he supported TARP & the bailouts.

If he is such a financial genius why did he support that theft?

All I have heard to answer that question so far from his "supporters" are attacks that I am a "Ron Paul supporter".

Anybody who lies about this is probably lying about everything else.

People are so used to flat out attacks on their candidates and into the attack-back-quick mindset that quite a few instantly post back insults, on seeing any post that is at all questioning of their candidate. It’s not hard to get into that mode after you’ve been slammed a few times. But I’m sorry that you’ve dealt with it.

I thought pretty hard about TARP myself, but ultimately came down against it for the same reason I was against “Cash for Clunkers” and the new housing grants. It’s other people’s money. Cain evidently didn’t have that view from the getgo. That made me want to ask questions about his bedrock principles.
