Notice “Ron Paul says Perry equals status quo. Cain says Perry is a politician but Nobody dare criticizes Palin. Should tell you something.”

Not nearly enough time for Cain

The news media has never given time to Cain. They continually ignore him. Either from fear or ignorance. Cain, amazingly, does well in spite...but he needs more $$$ and more support. I hope people wake up and see the great potential he has.

I’ve been loving Newt tonight. Too bad he won’t win the nomination if only because none of the others, either those in the debate tonight or Palin/Perry, could out-debate Obama like Newt. Oh, well,he did it to himself. Maybe he can be on the debate coaching team for the eventual GOP nominee.

Now, can we do Fargo and (figuratively, of course) put Santo in the chipper?

In the words of Marge Gundersson and Sarah P... "Ya, you betcha"
