Cain certainly doesn’t think Mitt’s Mormon ties are a big deal, even those parts of LDS doctrine that still denigrate black people (although they managed to “beg God” to let them accept qualified black people to certain positions in the church, easing if not eliminating the racist tensions).
What this might mean, I don’t know. Is Cain going into this with his eyes wide open? If he bumbled like that in his career, he’d never get as far as he got, AA or no AA.
Maybe, wallowing in the religious beliefs of primary opponents is better left to small minded, stammering morons like Rick Perry.
Eyes wide open.
