Cain is a lightweight. I liked him at first until I understood he was simply copying talking points. The man is unformed, unschooled and starting to look like a con artist. how anyone could consider him a serious candidate at this point is beyond me. He was also a major lobbyist in DC while he acts like a big outsider. I would hope people could see the difference between a real candidate and a con man. All that being said I would vote for him before Mitt.

People need to be aware that you are a big Palin supporter. I like Palin because she has the right enemies, but I’m not sure she can win and am not positive she’s Presidential material. This might sound petty, but her attending five different colleges bothers me. As someone who spent 7 years at one college, it strikes me as odd. It also makes her come across as flighty and indecisive.

I didn’t realize Cain was coming from a lobbyist background. The Fair Tax gimmick that he has peddled for years isn’t going anywhere but it would certainly take power away from both the politicians and pawnbrokers. He defends it in terms of consumer protection which only makes sense if it saves billions on lobbyists whose job it is to help rewrite the tax code and get rid of loopholes that currently pave the way for corporate tax dodging. Because it isn’t as if companies are passing along taxes in the form of higher prices when so much is being bypassed on the front end.
