No but Cain’s has a proposed agenda is solidly Conservative. Cain personal and political background is solidly Conservative

Kind of a neat little circular argument you have set up there. No once can have a record unless they have been elected to office before. Therefor anything Cain does you will simply dismiss since it does not fit your criteria for “a record”.

How is it a “circular argument” to point out the fact that it’s difficult to evaluate a candidate for public office when we can’t look at what he’s done before in public office and simply have to take his campaign promises at face value. It’s important to realize the difference between a “proposed agenda” and an actual record. It’s one thing to state an agenda. It’s quite another to actually carry it out.

Herman Cain’s lack of experience is a serious problem for a number of reasons, and it is not a problem he can fix in time for the 2012 election. There’s no Catch-22 for him here. Herman Cain made his own decision to run with no record, and fairness certainly doesn’t require giving him the benefit of the doubt because of it.
