Look, I don’t have to deal with Perry’s problems. I understand the issues that people have decided they don’t like about him.
I wonder how Mr. Cain would fare if he tried to govern a state that was very close to 50% Mexican and still try to govern conservatively and fight to close the border.
Remember when he met Obama at the airport and gave Obama a letter requesting help on the border. No wonder Obama hates Perry and hates Texas.
I think you may be right about Cain being in it to win it at the moment because he’s had this big surge in popularity. The fact is I don’t trust him. If he runs out of money to carry out a full campaign, I do not trust him not to run back to Romney for a veep spot.
Why does Cain exceed Romney and Perry combined (if that is actually true).
Because he feeds you people red meat, says what you want to hear (but claims it’s a joke if it doesn’t play well).
You people project your hopes and dreams on a man who has never held office, not even on a school board or a city council.
I hope your hopes and dreams work out because I think you are so totally invested in this man emotionally, you couldn’t handle it.
Also, just follow the money. Perry still leads Romney in that category and the money is coming in even faster now.
I am not at all worried. The campaign season has not really even started yet. Cain is a complete amateur, which is evident in how he has failed to organize his real campaign. In all reality, he never thought he would get a lucky bounce and he certainly can't handle it, now that it is here.

I was just pointing out that he is surging past Romney as Perry sinks due to his self-inflicted wounds.
And for as much fundraising as Mitt and Perry have done, it sure hasn't translated into the polls, has it?
Cain has appeal because he is NOT a politician. People are tired of all of these hacks with oodles of political experience screwing things up. That is what Cain is tapping into.
“It’s pretty simple Rove, post some of the smacks Cain has thrown Romney’s way.”

Why did you need someone else to find these things for you?
Appears he has been zotted.
I’m sorry but that is simply not accurate. The conduct of some of the Perry supporters has been outrageous as directed toward Cain - you aren’t doing so well by repeating the talking points that Cain has only “started” to criticize Romney.
Just think back to 2008, and the big government emergency call to the selected ones, McCain Big Government and the Puppet Spammer, back to D.C. for the 2008 Bailout Vote. Of course they both voted Yea.
Now which one of these “new” candidates can one fore-see doing THE SAME THING?
Great point!
Tonight's debate will tell the tale because what you posted, is so light it barely even registers.
Obama lite.
Absurd. You will just keep making it up as you are going along I guess.
