Me too...he’s got such a strong grasp on pretty much everything...and that the type of individual I want to see as President..hits the ground running.

Newt has said He will demolish 40% of Obamas self-appointed Czars before Obamas plane touches down on his trip home.

I actually am starting to believe that a Cain/Gingrich or Gingrich/Cain ticket is a real possibility.

Agreed.

Breaking the crack habit. True.

Why do so many Cain supporters feel they need to engage in name calling and personal attacks?

Might be they can tell a party crasher in a heartbeat..ya know?

Defined benefit isn’t really an obscure term. If you had to put together a pension plan for a business, you’d have to know the term, because it makes a big difference for your pension costs. I’m fortunate enough to have a defined benefit plan, my company switched to defined contribution for younger folks.

Newt has said over and over again this is a “dialogue.”

..Lincoln-Douglas--no way

Until they eliminate interviewer-host questioning of the candidates, they will never achieve a classic debate model...

Texas Loser Pay Bill Becomes Law

Effective September 1, 2011

On Monday, May 30, 2011, Texas Governor Rick Perry signed HB 274 into law. The passage of the bill comes after months of intense legislative debate and publicity. Although the bill originally proposed in the House contained a number of “loser-pay” provisions, the version that ultimately passed in both chambers contains only one true fee-shifting

They're both from the same state (Georgia), so they couldn't be on the same ticket as per Amendment XII.

When Newt was in Congress he was a Resident of Georgia, but since he left Congress he moved to Virginia. He is a registered voter in that state. So Admendment XII is no problem.

So far this is a great debate. Newt is coming on strong. Cain given the hard week he has had has been good.

Cain/Gingrich

-OR-

Gingrich/Cain

I'd be happy with either.
