I wish Mr. Cain had some elective experience. I don't believe that Rep. Bachmann should be running for president, she isn't at that level, IMO.

“I wish Mr. Cain had some elective experience. I don’t believe that Rep. Bachmann should be running for president, she isn’t at that level, IMO. “

Cain’s running mate will take care of that issue. The only thing that matters now is that we get a conservative who doesn’t coddle illegals and understands Islam and there’s only one left in the top tier.

Someone like Newt, or someone else with a good deal of time in federal office, will give Cain all the help he needs there.

So far I am really liking Cain, I like how he speaks what he feels, shows no fear. I like that a lot..and I think the left is terrified he will win, he will make mince meat out of Obama

Think for yourself, maybe? Stop being a cultist? Just be a patriot. That’s enough.

You don’t get elected Governor of the most conservative state in the union three times if you’re not doing a good job. Perry has a solid conservative executive governing record for the last 11 years. He’s worked hard to keep his state competitive in creating jobs, keeping taxes low with restraints on spending. Along with serious tort reform and reductions in regulations.

If he became potus Perry would govern as a fiscal conservative and reign in spending and regulations. With a GOP Congress on his side Perry would also lower taxes, then work on real entitlement and tax reform. Those policies and rolling back Obamacare would set in motion serious economic growth that would help to create jobs everywhere in America.

Perry supports a strong military and national defense, lower taxes and less spending, limited govt, tax-tort-regulation and entitlement reform, is pro-life, pro-gun, pro-traditional marriage, pro-family, pro-Constitution, opposes blanket amnesty and has worked to secure the Tex-Mex border. Now he wants the Feds to finish the job that Texas started.

Perry is a Reagan conservative. All the way.

but with her deicsion not to run, what should we do?

Keep spamming more articles about her on FR, in a fervent, desperate effort to give her, and her rabid followers, more validation.

Chill out and see how the remainder of the field develops.

I liked Palin myself- although for me it was more a vote to spite the people who didn’t like her, although she was more qualified than either of the two presidential candidates in ‘08. At the moment I’m considering Mr. Cain strongly- I kind of like the thought that if he runs, it makes it rather hard for an Obamabot to call me a racist if I vote for him. It would be nice if the Repubs could get a candidate the caliber of Washington, Jefferson, etc, but they don’t. You are right in saying he doesn’t have a lot of experience in government, but, then again, that might be a plus....

I'm still wondering why she is still talking like a candidate...plus Peter Singleton of Organize4Palin said they are not going away either...I wonder whats up

"Palin talked about her corporate tax plan in her speech in St. Louis on October 7th. She said it would “manifest the belief that if given a level playing field, everyone will have the opportunity to thrive.” She said that eliminating the federal corporate income tax, corporate welfare, loopholes, and bailouts would “create an explosion of real job growth” and “break the back of crony capitalism.” Palin believes her plan would send the message to job-creating corporations that “we’ll unshackle you from the world’s highest federal corporate income tax rate but you’ll stand on your own. You will fall or succeed on your own, just like the rest of us on Main Street.”

If you are a Palin Patriot what should you do now?

Grow up and stop worshipping false idols, leave that to the Obama worshippers. In other words, get a life.

Something similar happened to me.
I was invited to see breitbart in Orlando the same day as CPAC.
Note, at that point in time I was disgusted with our choice of candidates (at least the two that had a chance of winning the GE.

Afterwards I wandered upstairs and happened upon a chance to hear Mr. Cain speak.

When I left and eventually entered the parking garage. I stopped and stood there for a minute. OMG !!

I was overwhelmed. He is AWESOME!! The real deal.

I hadn’t been so excited since Reagan and then Sarah.

I’m in for the long haul.

I painted Cain 2012 on the back of my new SUV with white shoe Polish.

I have been blogging ever sense.

God speed Mr. Cain!!

Get on with your life, decide who to support next and do it. Quit obsessing about your lost love. She's home with her family.

“she appeared to be our next Ronald Reagan”

Appearances are obviously deceiving.

Most of us TEA people in my state are busy looking at Senate and House candidates on both the state and local levels as well as possible challengers to our Rinos on the federal level. We remain in throw the bums out mode.

I’m busy vetting the rest of the field, specifically Herman Cain. He hasn’t much of a record but he does put forth plans and ideas. So far I’m concerned about the 999 Plan and the Chilean healthcare and retirement accounts model he is proposing.

He claims the Chilean Model is a success, but the deeper I dig I see it going downhill. They reformed it in ‘08 and it would appear to need another intervention now.

The 999 plan is creating havoc with the poor, many formerly lower/midlevel middle class now amongst the poor. They are being subsidized to survive, including the retirement and healthcare provisions of the Chilean Model.

I’m not liking it much.

I honestly do not know who I’ll support in the primary. Obviously I’ll support the nominee for POTUS in the general. I’m less than thrilled with the remaining candidates.

Palin is playing pan-dimensional chess, while all others are soiling their diapers at the thought of running against her. She is doing something (not sure what exactly) PRECISELY like Sun Tzu would do it, so DON’T WORRY. Even though she is not running, she WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! be the next POTUS. She’s just that brilliant, or, to quote Sun Tzu, “Those who do not run, alway become president.” Ahhh, so!

I like Cain and I guess he’s now my 1st-choice, but in a way I can’t really bring myself to get excited all that much in his campaign, because I have the distinct feeling he’s going to get deep-sixed before long. Doesn’t he have thousands of hours of radio-show material, which all sorts of out-of-context snippets could be taken? Plus, Cain has had a terrible tendency to let the media lure him down right down their garden-path. Seems to really portend trouble down the line.

I think the Palin supporters should just relax. There is no need to get on board with any other candidate immediately. Keep up with what is going on and know there is plenty of time to figure out who you are going to vote for.

But then God got into the act.

God has always been "in the act". He still is.

I guess the writer didn't listen to Sarah Palin. I have to find her quote!

Otherwise it's a good column.

Sarah Palin supporters: keep your options open, choose wisely and pray non stop.

We'll find our TEA PARTY PATRIOT in this field.

As for me, I'm listening to "their words" carefully.

I'm very fortunate. I met our conservatives in person, in Tampa and spoke to all personally. I liked every one of them. Michele Bachmann was particulary nice to me, as were Herman Cain, Speaker Newt and Governor Perry (who kissed me on my right cheek).

Ditto for Romney, but I said *conservatives*.....lol.
