Yup.
It wasn’t a “mistake,” it was a choice.
Those others were easy to disqualify. Santorum looked like the genuine article until his “mistake.”
And don’t think I didn’t notice your lack of specifics with regard to Cain. So far I have seen nothing that would cause me to disqualify him: and I’ve been actively FReeping for a loooooong time.
I’m not getting into the specifics of criticizing Cain because I’m not throwing him out of the contention. There have been enough criticisms of him lately.
Ron Paul made his BIG mistake when he endorsed the OWS protesters. I’ve never heard a Libertarian endorsing a protest agains greed before. Ayn Rand would have had a fit.
