>>While color plays no part in my politics...I do have to say there would be some sweet justice in a Cain-Obama matchup.<<

Count me as a Palin supporter who’s glad to see Cain taking off. I think Palin held off not wanting to split the anti-Romney vote, and would have entered if Romney started to show signs of breaking above the 25-30% he’s been stuck at forever. When Perry took off, and now Cain, she’d just make things more difficult for those of us who are Anyone-but-Romney Republicans.

I want someone like Palin or Cain or Perry to take on Obama...if it’s a successful black person, well, that’s just an added bonus for me in terms of making the election more fun to watch.

However, for the black families that have been progressively destroyed by liberal policies over the past several decades, Herman Cain could be the best thing that ever happened to them. Seriously. And that shouldn’t be overlooked.

So, I think it’s important that we treat his candidacy for what it might well be...a chance to restore the black family to what it once was...and can be again, with the right leadership. And in that regard, it’s hard to imagine a better candidate than Herman Cain.

And Hispanic families are likely to see something in him too. He could well be their chance to escape the fate suffered by black families upon whom Democrats have lavished so much attention, as those same Democrats turn their misguided efforts upon the Hispanic population.
