Compare his answer tonight regarding Syria to Romney’s. Cain was not able to speak authoritatively about the details and in fact was reduced to bringing his answer ultimately back to the economy, which he typically does when he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
When he was asked about Libya, all he had to say was that we had no national security interest in Libya and congress didn’t approve our presence in Libya. He could then have pointed out that according the liberal media Bush was a cowboy, but at least in the case of both Iraq and Afghanistan there was a defensible case to be made that there existed a U.S. security interest and that congress approved both wars. If little ole me knows that but Cain can rattle it off on the spot then I conclude he is a lightweight.
Now, he is definitely infinitely better than Obama and I think he would make a good President because I don’t question his decision making ability given that he is made aware of the facts. But in order to win, you have to be damn sure that the MSM is not going to have opportunities to ridicule your lack of in depth knowledge. And the overriding concern is to win and be rid of Obama.
I think by now most get that Cain is in over his head.. but that doesn't help those who were hoping otherwise he'd come thru. He established patterns we can now follow so we know before he speaks what he's going to say and do.
Really, after 5 people talked about a no fly zone over Syria he was supposed to add his 2 cents? He added 2 cents but why should he play the game show game of would he install a no fly zone and declare war on Syria?
The bigger issue is our economy and securing our own oil supply. His answer seemed more dynamic and interesting than how we would control the ME. Course than I am not trying to trash other candidates to make mine look better like you are.
Who is your candidate?
