Agree with every part except for Cain who gave me the exact opposite impression. Cain actually proposed solutions while every other candidate just kept repeating how bad things are and how ineffective Obama is. On a “time prorated” basis, I thought Cain offered the most substance.....now whether one agrees with his proposals is a completely different argument.

I liked Cain. I don’t see him convincing enough primary voters to take a chance on someone who has never dealt with government beuracracy before. But he rarely says anything I disagree with.
Of course, I agreed with a lot of stuff a lot of our candidates said last night. My least agreement was with Huntsmann and Paul.
Hnutsmann’s worst statement for me was when he said that business, and specifically the energy sector, needed the President to step out from behind the podium, turn off the teleprompter (so far so good), and show companies where to find the oil — like how does the President do that?

Interesting. Cain's proposals are fine, but Cain's no wonk, and it's evident to me. It was evident on his disastrous Fox News Sunday appearance, and it's evident whenever he gets a question that he's not specifically prepared for. For instance last night, when asked about FEMA budgetary offsets, a current issue, but one you could tell he hadn't practiced on, he clearly fudged it. I actually like him a lot, early on he was probably my favorite in the race, but I get the strong impression he's out of his league. Just my opinion.
