Herman Cain

Interesting , but the sample is not a good cross section.



L"ike so many others, I’ve watched Herman Cain’s presidential candidacy go from no-shot to long-shot to front-runner status. I’ve seen prominent political forecasters eating nasty-tasting crow on national television, as Cain’s rise continues despite their dire dissing. I’ve seen campaign pros wince and squirm and continue to put down Cain’s chances again and again as his polling numbers just keep rising in spite of his “not doing it right” — according to the expert campaign strategists.

We’ve all heard by now at least a dozen reasons why Herman Cain can’t become president.

Yet Cain keeps winning over real voters.

So what is it about Herman Cain?

That’s the question I set about to answer this week. And I found five real voters to confide their own personal reasons for supporting Herman Cain.

The man does have charisma and he is a great example of an American success story.

And time to elect a President without an Ivy League background. Reagan didn't need an Ivy League education and the Republican Elite never thought he would be able to win, just like Cain.

Nixon didn't have an Ivy League background, either. And look how well HE did.

If only Herman Cain had campaign workers and offices in every state.

Too bad he's promoting smoking in his latest campaign ad.

O Nixon just opened China up to trade, that poopyhead (Nixon)... Got caught, and RESIGNED, like a MAN, he wasn't impeached, and refused to resign. Nixon Had a lot of faults, but the buck stopped with him.
"Too bad he's promoting smoking in his latest campaign ad." Wrong, he's PROMOTING FREEDOM!
Mr. Cain, is NOT a Politian, and that's why people love him, and will vote for him, (as I saw on a T-shirt) "WE THE PEOPLE...
Have had enough!" Rino Romney is being pushed on us, like anal sphincter, Pro-illeagel immagantion Perry by the Republican Elite, and we REAL Conseravtive Republicans had enough of the Elite deciding OUR candidates. Mr. Cain has some areas lacking, but he'll go get the best to teach him, and he's a FAST learner, he hasn't been primed/pruned/preped to the Office, he's a MAN that sees a problem and WILL DO THE BEST HE CAN TO SOLVE it.
The PROBLEM is WASHINGTON, D.C. it's the same ol sh*t year after year after year after year... People wanted change, well they got it, and NOW Mr. Cain will FIX IT! I supported Allen Keyes when he ran, and I'll Support Mr. Cain, until...
And if we get stuck again with the lesser of 2 evils, I swallow my pride and vote for Party, because even a RINO is better then what we have now...

Amen TPP

Why did you feel the need to call me a name like that just for expressing my opinion?

Keep it coming.

Promoting smoking? Please. Was Obama promoting smoking when the photo of him wearing a fedora with a fag in his mouth? Or was he advocating drug use when he admitted his addiction in his books?

TPP you have got to stop lying about Perry stance on illegals. It just isn't true! He is SOOOO Anti illegals and the only candidate fighhting it and passing legistlation to close sanctuary cities and implementeing the e-verify to prove people are citizens to work in the US. He has had to put his own national guard on the border to stop illegals since the Federal government won't help. What has Cain done to fight illegal immigrants and close the border other than make a stupid joke about an electric fence which caused the Latino leader in the Republican party to resign. And Latino groups are rebuking him left and right! He has already lost a huge part of the biggest minority group we have. And seriously what has he done to stop or fight illegals other than lip service? Perry is fighting it every year! And he has NEVER offer FREE ANYTHING to illegals by the way.

And after all the fun the Repbulicans have made about electing someone inexperienced and how it was such a huge mistake, you just said we should elect someone that 'he'll go get the best to teach him, and he's a FAST learner'? They will eat him for lunch! So far he said he wants to electrocute latinos and African americans are brainwashed. And he ticked of the far right with his flop flopping on abortion. And he has NO MONEY or any organizations. He has 5 people in NH and is only in 5 or 6 states. He has no money to get others going yet and the first primary is only 2 months away. Obama will have 50 times the money he will have. And he can spread all the lies he wants iin every state and Cain will not have the money to fight back. Does money matter? Of course!

I am not typing it all over but here is what I see is wrong with Cain. And again, I like the guy. But we can not have Obama for 4 more years! I will just repost this even though some is repeating.

Cain has alienated the Latino vote with calling for an electric fence and his immigration remarks. Everyone is saying Perry would get a big chunk of the Latino vote. And he has turned off the black vote by his insulting remarks about if you are not happy with where you are it is your own fault. As much as I agree with that, that REALLY upset a lot of people. So he has had to back step on several statements.

He has the far right Christians wondering about him with his comment about being pro life but not letting government get involved in abortion issues then changing his mind. He has REALLY made everyone nervous about his ability to be President by continuing to give no answers on foreign policies because he 'needs to look into it.' Wrong answer. That sounds like an inexperienced Obama. And then his answer about giving into Al Qaeda and how he could see negotiating with them to release Guantanamo prisoners for one American. and then flipping on that one too.

Then you throw in his 999 plan that was supposed to be the simplest plan ever, then when people said it would raise taxes on the poor, he comes out with the lamest of lines. Well I have another part I was holding back because 'I wanted to see them attack this for a while first'. Are you serious? Does he really think we believe we are that stupid? That is what he actually said. SO now it is 9-0-9 which is not close to revenue neutral. And then he adds in another provision that it is different from city to city, and part of it is to do away with minimum wages in certain areas to make it work. Not only are the unions dismissing it and saying there is no way ANYONE will vote to get rid of minimum wages, but it also makes it the most unfair tax you could imagine. That will be torn apart in the next 5 debates. Obama is hoping and praying he gets a shot at tearing it apart himself in debates in the general election. That is why the main stream media is trying to keep the weakest general election candidate alive.

Then you have the money issue. Cain has the least money of anyone running. And yes unfortunately money is a HUGE factor. If Obama is running 10 attack ads a day in all the states all over the country against Cain and Cain only has enough to defend in a few states with a couple ads a day before his money runs out. Obama will destroy him even if what he is saying isn’t true, Cain has no money to defend all the attacks or lies. And he has no organizations in any states other than 5 or 6 right now and he admitted he only has 5 people in NH as of last week and that is the second primary. Romney, and Perry have not even begun to spend money on this campaign yet. Perry just started yesterday with the start of ads.

As I have said. I like Cain. He is very likable and smart. But he is not ready to run a country at all and his having to correct all his mistakes and no real plan on anything is a total disaster!

Add all of this up and Obama, no matter how terrible he has been will run on a couple foreign successes and how Cain has no viable plan and he will destroy Cain. We CANNOT have 4 more years of Obama!
