It's amazing how, after the Sarah Palin Tease, so many on Free Republic are again falling for the exact same type of candidate that is out hawking books on a book tour rather than paying attention to what it takes to actually win an election.
The 9-9-9 Plan hype will be shredded to bits in ads before the primaries and Cain will not be able to reply because he has paid absolutely no attention to serious fund raising.
That is by choice. Cain's choice is to cash in, concentrate attacks on Perry, treat his old buddy, Mitt Romney, with kid gloves and leave the nomination to Romney.
In my opinion, however, Cain does not seek to be a VP candidate. He is acting like somebody that wants to be the next Sarah Palin and the next Huckabee with book deals, high speaking fees and a lucrative contract with FOX News.
Once Cain bails out, ... and he will, .... the GOP will have been left with Cain's pal: Mitt Romney.
Cain will bail out much sooner than the primaries. Today, that isn’t his plan but it will.
