Herman Cain *is* going to be the Republican Nominee and he *is* going to be President of the United States.
He might not have a star-power staff, fat cats with check books or friends with influence, but he is inheriting Sarah Palin's formidable army of Tea Party members. The world is changing, he can do a lot through the Internet and cable news, instead of corrupt fat cats and insiders. The Tea Party will be better than any organization of high priced handlers and consultants.
He has been, far and away, the hardest working candidate out there. He has been on TV almost everyday, sometimes on several shows in one day. Just from hard work, courage and tenacity he has created more exposure for himself than any of the candidates. Almost single-handedly, he has propelled himself to top of the polls. I love the way he walks in by himself to many of these events and faces down the high priced consultants, handlers, insiders and huge star-powered staffs -- and beats them all. That is American individualism and initiative at its best.
He is no longer by himself. For Herman Cain, Sarah Palin withdrawing from the race was the turning point. He will now have the Tea Party on his side. It's like Winston Churchhill after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States declaring war on the Axis powers. Churchill wrote:
"Being saturated and satiated with emotion and sensation, I went to bed and slept the sleep of the saved and thankful.
"...England would live; Britain would live; the Commonwealth of Nations and the Empire would live.
"How long the war would last or in what fashion it would end no man could tell, nor did I at this moment care. Once again in our long Island history we should emerge, however mauled or mutilated, safe and victorious. We should not be wiped out. We should not be wiped out. Our history would not come to an end. We might not even have to die as individuals. Hitler's fate was sealed. "
That's what Herman Cain must feel like with the army of Tea Party members rushing to support him.
Expect Herman Cain to be smeared mercilessly by the Establishment and Media, but he *will* be the nominee and he *will* win the presidency.
He and the Tea Party will win.

He runs a lean mean campaign and I believe he will run a lean mean government. :-)
I’m sorry his 999 plan is 666 upside down. I’m not going to pay 9% tax on food and other things. There are still states who have no sales tax, they might get a bit mad if he’s the candidate.
<y neighbor is dirt poor on SS and he doesn’t want to pay 9% on his measly income either. This will hurt the poor and lower middle class hard.
Cain’s just another smooth talker like 0bma.
Poor poor political operatives, I feel so bad for them. They might have to resort to posting here like some of the other paid Cain bashers.
Is it me or does it seem that there are a lot of Cain haters with multiple personalities on FR?
In 2006, Cain was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer in his colon and metastases to his liver and given a 30 percent chance of survival. Cain underwent surgery and chemotherapy following the diagnosis, and has since reported that he is cancer-free.
I’m so proud of my wife...she’s been involved with the Cain campaign a few months now and is carrying a work load like she’s never experienced...She’s on the phone constantly and I’m even fixing dinners and in full support of her loyalty and devotion to this campaign...
At times she’s expressed the need for more fund raising and have had to listen to her lectures (of course, I’m filling in for Herman’s ears...lol) about the lack of money being raised...well, I stood up for Cain and said he’s running this like a business man that wants to show a profit...
The “profit” is showing...he’s spent 1/3 less than Mitt and is about to run him out of this race on principle alone!!!
Why should it take $100,000,000 to run for President and win or for that matter lose?
Cain is proving it’s not all about the money...there are a majority of votes out here that you can’t buy (I’m not for sale!!!)...you have to earn them...through good ideas,honesty and with a statesman like approach...NOT political “Bull”...
Cain’s on a roll with this concept!
Beat Obama with a Cain!
You need to step up and volunteer to help. Especially Iowa. It's going to take "boots" on the ground to make this work.
