If Romney is elected with Cain as VP and people feel that Romney really screws up, how will this effect Cain in the next election? I wonder if it’s really worth taking the chance.

The way the polls are going now, I think it more likely that Herman Cain comes out on top and Mitt or Rick has to exchange their fund raising prowess for the 2nd spot on the ticket. Herman would have to take it. He needs the money and he's no spring chicken. Reagan was 68 during the 1980 election. Herman Cain will be 70 in 2016.

Even the great Ronald Reagan had to pick a RINO for the VP slot to unite the party and win.
