Yes and switched to Republican to join the Dole/Kemp campaign in 1996. This according to his own VP of Communications.

I’ve seen no proof that Cain voted for Clinton or was a democrat. It doesn’t make much sense to be a democrat and Clinton backer in 1992 and then turn into a pro-market Hillarycare opponent in 1993.

The claim usually comes from a Perrybot, everything they say should be taken with a grain of salt unless independently confirmed, one alleged quote from a staffer doesn’t do it for me. Perry of course was himself sympathetic to the cause of hillarycare. He and Jim Jeffords were about the only Republicans in the country that were.

If he was a democrat I don’t like it but I’m not shocked as 90% of Black people are raised that way and he wasn’t politically active till the 90’s. Perry allegedly being a conservative leader in the party of Walter Mondale and Al Gore would still be worse.

I’m unhappy that Mrs. Cain is a democrat, so was Laura Bush (I don’t believe her switch to GOP as being genuine, she sure ain’t a conservative) but first lady is not on the ballot and it could even be helpful to the campaign to have this “bipartisan support”. I sure hope he doesn’t take her advice on any policy stuff though, doesn’t seem like he does.

I have to say I’d love it to have a quiet first lady that stays out of the spotlight. The Wookie is giving Hillary and Elenanor Roosevelt a run for their money for the title of “worst ever”.
