I usually agree with Sowell, but I disagree with his point that Cain’s surge is over.
Cain is still leading in key states: IA, FL, SC, as well as NC ,TN, OH, SD, NE, PA, ME, WV, VA, GA, TX, AZ, HI, WI, IL.
It is WAY too early to count him out.
blow it? yes, of course. without question
there is only one way to keep progressives out of the WH in 2012
I think he’s a hell of a lot smarter than you. People pay him to learn his opinion. Your opinion just pisses most people off.
The GOP now controls the House, will retake the Senate and controls most State Governments.
Such was not the case in 1932-44.
When the GOP made a strong comeback in the Congressional elections in 1938, unseating many New Dealers, the New Deal was over and FDR switched to foreign policy.
The War kept FDR in power after that.
Republicans are like the Texas Rangers, they’ll blow it when they are one strike away from winning it all.
“PAGING GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN!”
Would that it was possible!
Obama is no FDR.That's true.
And the "silent majority" is smarter this time around.
Regarding Herman, the trend is not his friend. I, for one, find him a little slow on his feet. Sort of the anti-Gingrich, if you will.
This task is too important for someone who still has plenty of on-the-job training ahead of him.
Where is Palin on these ridiculous charges against Cain?
You are 100% correct. The Tea Party is the genesis of a new American Conservative Party if the RINOS are stupid enough to stick it to us just one more time.
I haven’t heard that she’s said anything but I wish she’d step forward and support him on what I consider false charges.
The question should be asked of the Blue state liberal lemmings in Ohio, Mich, Minn.etal if they still want to stick with a failed socialist liberal secularist who is a wuss on free enterprise, jobs, energy , borders and beating the Islamofasicsts. It is not Pubs unless they continue to elect RINOS for their nominees. It seems that with Indies, TEAS,maybe Libertarians and Reagan Dems once more not wanting a repeat of Obamaism, perhaps the GOP will unite and select a good duo of conservs who are tough minded with real solutions. Whoa, that sounds like Newt and a Perry or Bolton,or even Jeb Bush ticket. Hmmm.
Okay here is the trend:
In Iowa, Cain has gone from being behind behind Romney by 3 points in a CNN/Time Poll taken 10/20 - 10/25 to being ahead by 4 points in an Insider Advantage Poll taken 11/8.
In Florida, Cain has gone from being behind behind Romney by 12 points in a CNN/Time Poll taken 10/20 - 10/25 to being ahead by 6 points in Rasmussen Reports poll conducted 11/8 - 11/8.
In South Carolina, Cain has gone from being behind behind Romney by 2 points in a CNN/Time Poll taken 10/20 - 10/25 and behind 2 points in a Clemson poll taken 10/27 - 11/7 to being ahead by 7 points in an Insider Advantage Poll taken 11/8.
In Ohio, Cain has increased his lead from 5 points over Romney in a Quinnipiac poll taken 10/31 - 11/7 to a 14 point lead over Romney taken 11/4- 11/6.
Then you’d just have to deal with the Glen Rice story. Can’t believe the ugliness of politics.
I doubt it.
:(
I just want to know who in the world he's talking about as the "other" conservative candidate?
Huh?
Does she personally know him?
How can she vouch for him?
Where were all the people when she was 24/7 - 365 attacks?
The Tuscon shootings, just for one example? *Crickets*
Oh gosh! I hope she doesn’t endorse!
Do you really want her to endorse?
One needs to take charge and the rest who have no chance, need to step aside for the cause of taking Obama out of office. The problem with that is, none of them seem willing to get together to pick our best candidate.
Yes. I want her to make an endorsement.
Not right now, but when the time is right.
The time is not right.
But at some point, we need to rally round a candidate and Sarah Palin will be a big help in getting us to do that.
