Cain: ‘Look for My Army on Capitol Hill’
NRO Online ^ | 122011 | Robert Costa

Posted on 12/20/2011 1:03:38 PM PST by Fred

Herman Cain tells National Review Online that he will launch a new political-action committee in January. The outfit, whose final name remains under wraps, will be Cain’s main project next year. Its mission will be to enact his “9-9-9” economic plan.

“We continue the campaign without a candidate,” says Cain, who hinted at the endeavor during his departure speech. “There are a lot of people who are willing to support the campaign for solutions without the end objective being my election as president of the United States.”

As Cain transitions to private life, “Friends of Herman Cain,” the financial force behind his presidential campaign, is being dismantled. “Most of that money is being used to retire all of our debt, which is good news,” he says. His revamped operation “will be a new entity that will promote many of the same solutions that I spoke about as a candidate.”

I'm not talking about Governor Perry right now.

I'm talking about people who call themselves conservatives but cry “racism!” just because someone doesn't agree with everything Herman Cain advocates.

That's how the Obama-deification crowd was acting when they crowned their messiah in early 2009 and they've used that lame crap ever since.

You ought to be ashamed.

Care to discuss the article rather than the topic YOU brought up?

Your candidate fired the first shot, so the indignant protests of his supporters ring quite hollow indeed.

You mean replying to garbage like this ?

“Translation: I got to sell more books! I may as well use campaign money to launch a book tour.”

"Cain’s most important roll has been TAX REFORM. We the people are ready."

Was that a cinnamon roll or a dinner roll? Or did you mean "role"?

Yeah.
Ol Herb thinks he can go on collecting money to influence peddle and promote himself.

Haven’t you had enough of this guy?

“There is no law that says I can’t talk about these issues as a citizen,” Cain says. “And there is no law that says that people can’t contribute to funding our efforts to educate people and influence legislators. That is what we are going to do.

In my opinion Cain is walking a fine line here.
He is dismantling the campaign funds so as not to get his balls in a vice with the law, but it is clear, that this is an extension of his campaign for personal gain.

He is even retaining Mark Block to run the thing.

Mark Block, his campaign’s chief of staff, will serve the group as senior adviser, as will Linda Hansen, his campaign’s deputy chief of staff.

A Cain sucker calling Perry a huckster, now that's funny. Perry has accomplished more and has far superior conservative credentials to that womanizing clown who knows less about the real world than an Obama neophyte.

Perry has actually accomplished what Cain only gives lip service to. He has created an environment that attracts businesses, increased jobs, increased state revenues, decreased state debt. Cain turned the number 5 pizza chain into the number 8 pizza chain.

LOL! Perry hasn't been chased out of the race for his past sins. That's because he wasn't on a glorified book tour.

There's no point in trying to discuss any of this rationally with you.

You've gone the strange route of those rabid "PALIN!!!!!....I mean CAIN!!!!!....I mean NEWT!!!!...I mean...back to Palin....or Santorum...ummmmm" supporters. I actually am OK with any of those, but that little group of supporters who use all caps and multiple exclamation points when referring to the object of their obsession are just nuts.

I’ve had enough of the bashers who publicly cheered on his high-tech lynching, or what was frankly a brutal gang-rape.

No one could prove the first two women.
I have said numerous times that Sharon Bialik was a gold digger.

Ginger White? well, she is another matter.
Cain admitted to there friendship, he admitted to supporting her with money without his wife’s knowledge.

In the wake of it he said over and over “Many” of these allegations are untrue.

That is what sunk Cain.
