“Herman Cain still has a lot of vetting to go through.”

They all do. Its called the Primary. And there is six debates yet before the first of the year. And every one of them better prepare themselves for the gotcha questions, because they will all face them. Starting with Perry Tuesday. Mark my words one of the questions to him will be if he thinks Mormonism is Christian. His supporter stepped in that one for hm, and he is the one having to scrape the poop of his boots.

GOVERNOR RICK PERRY: Gun control is hitting the target you're aiming at.......

Why does he keep aiming at his own foot?

Okay it's clear that Cain wasn't aware of the specifics of Alwaki back THEN. It's obvious that he was giving an answer based on the belief that it was a citizen living WITHIN the borders of the United States. If that were the case then his answer is exactly right..but it gets murkier when a citizen leaves the country and in essence forfeits his rights to due process by living abroad and actively fighting against his country.

I give Cain a BIG PASS on this. There's nothing here but wishful thinking.

Have you listened to his reason for endorsing Giuliani? You might want to go back and listen to why he chose to endorse him. In light of what we are going through with the 0bama regime, Perry actually was right in his reasoning. Executive experience is vital for understanding how to govern.

Cain said. “Keep in mind that there are a lot of people out there trying to make me sound as if I am indecisive.”

Cain? Indecisive? Nah. He ALWAYS has the same two opposite answers he gives for every single answer. You can't be indecisive when you don't give a real political stand on anything anyway. That's just called "fooling people".

I watched that video, Cain was sharp. He has positives, that’s for sure.

Trying to take out Cain so many of us will write in and swing it to Romney?

None. Not one.

We are not the ones racing around screaming innuendo and lies about “Perry wanting to be Romney’s VP” or “Perry playing the race card” or “Perry supported Romney in 2008” “Or Perry was pro abortion in his 2004 campaign”.

Make a fact base case for Perry or against Cain and that is good political debate. Screaming innuendo and lies about the opponent while refusing to make any sort of rational argument FOR Perry is not.

It’s hypocritical for the Perry camp to spend all their time complaining about how rough Perry been treated in light of how bare knuckled they own tactics have been.

"Herman Cain still has a lot of vetting to go through."

The media and the east coast Republicans have destroyed every candidate but Cain and Romney, and they have been playing tag-team on Perry. Mitt and Herm have got something going on.

Perry has been the target ever since he got in the race. It’s a shame the other candidates haven’t attacked Mitt Romney like they’ve gone after Perry - but I guess they have their reasons.

I think it’s good though, whoever ends up being the nominee is going to have to be tough as nails and ready for all of the crap the media is going to sling at him. Whoever can overcome this will be our next leader.

So who is supposed to roll over.

Cain started this war against Perry. I haven’t heard of Perry saying anything whatever against Cain.

So don’t blame Perry for this fight.

What? Is Cain shilling for HUCKABEE now? Is that why they sang gospel tunes together in Iowa?

I just can’t keep my conspiracies straight anymore.

Any candidate is a fool who says anything about another candidates religion.

"I don't comment on such questions as it has nothing to do with the office of president", is all that needs to be said.

Thank you for proving my point.

You Perry supporters are the most reckless players of the victim card the Right has ever been cursed with.

EVERYTHING in this campaign is someone else's fault. It all a plot to "get Perry". Nothing is the fault of Perry's ham handed inept campaign and lack of anything resembling a Presidential agenda.

You people are as bad as the Obamites. Everyone else is to blame, while your guy is perfect and blameless. A Cult of Personality campaign is no more attractive because it has a "Conservative" label slapped on it.

Make a fact base case for Perry or against Cain and that is good political debate. Screaming innuendo and lies about the opponents while refusing to make any sort of rational argument FOR Perry is not.
