Team them up. Let Newt groom Cain for 4 years, so that Cain will be ready in 2016
Out of country but legal.

I agree, I am not impressed with Perry and NOT a fan of his. The only ones that can chew TOTUS up and spit him out are Cain, Gingrich and Sarah.
I was trying to tell this to the folks here during the first week of August.

He does that in every damn election he is running in. Posters here can clearly see when McCain does it. Somehow they just go all silly when Perry does it. Perhaps they are seeing him for the first time and just don't know what he is really like.
Now some of the real Gov. Perry is coming out and I am seeing denial and anger from his supporters. And if what the have seen so far is nicking their skin they are gonna absolutely go hysterical as this goes on.

It would mark the first time ever I don’t vote. No way in Hell I vote for Milt and Brownstain on the same ballot. Not gonna happen.
Newt Rick and Cain were the best!
Really if these dummies aren’t smart enough to blast Obama instead of each other...then none of them are smart enough to be president ....seeing these nine debate just has to pique the interest of some of those on the sideline ..Ryan, Christie, etc ....
Man, Romney gardasil twelve year olds ain’t with no fence and in-state tuition given a job there on Texas with the George Bush... I’ll tell you what!
That all depends on how many thousand volts you charge it with.
>>>Gary Johnson’s “shovel ready” jobs being created by his neighbor’s two dogs was clever.
Old joke on twitter world, In fact it was on today’s Dan Reihl twit
