You guys are amazing... One comment and you’re throwing him under the bus.. And we’ll get Romney
You get what you deserve... Just like Bachmann, Cain will drop soon enough. The only one that can stop him is Perry... And you’re willing to destroy him over one issue. Pathetic
To me, Cain pulling out the race card was far far worse than Perry’s statement
Where is your claim of him pulling out from?
NYTimes? DU? yourself?
First of all, that one comment was very revealing about Perry's thought process. First, that he was politically dumb enough to let his mouth run wild at a debate. Second, that he viewed critics of the program in that manner. And third, that he had not prepared himself to debate the subject on a national level.

Perry has done a pretty crappy job taking on Romney. Being the anti-Romney was Perry's role for the taking and he fell flat instead. Yet his supporters seem to think he can assume that role when he has failed utterly at such to this point? We still have a long primary season and may the best candidate win. Your saying Perry is such does not make him such.

I don't think Cain was speaking to gain political advantage, but from his experiences in the segregated South, just as Clarence Thomas made the case against cross-burning on SCOTUS from his perspective when none of the other jurists shared it.
Should Cain have waited for more info before passing judgement? Yes. But I don't see his comment as being cyncially motivated. YOur opinion may differ.
