Cash - Supremecourtese for ‘free speech’. If he can’t buy enough free speech, he is dead.

Jeez, if it's free how come they make you pay for it?

Agreed, he isn’t the loon Ron Paul is. Ron Paul, I do respect for saying what he believes and not trying to BS the public. However, I would not vote for him. As to Herman Cain; I would support him if he gets the nomination. However again, I would not vote for him in the primary as of this moment. That may change, we will see. I still do not trust anyone from the RESERVE!

“Of those in the field so far, Pawlenty is the only choice for conservatives. And it’s not a great choice. However, it would definitely be a move in the right direction....”

Thanks! I am getting tired of all the negativity on this forum about how bad the candidates are. Every one of them is 10 times, no 100 times, better than the current POTUS.

Pawlenty was a very good governor. he not only governed a very Democratic statre controlled by liberal news media, labor unions, and university moguls, but did it against a MN House and Senate controlled by the democrats. Never-the-less, he managed to keep our state from become a copy of California. And, believe me, the DFLers (Democrats) did want to make us another California, but Pawlenty stopped it.

So, enough already about what a poor candidate Tim Pawlenty is. I’m going to challenge everyone here to Grow up!!!! We need to avoid condemning the GOP candidates during the process - and do not tear them apart. Believe me, the Democrats and their Hollywood brethren, the Marxists on campuses and in the MSM will be doing it aplenty without our joining them.

"Jeez, if it's free how come they make you pay for it? "

You have to collect 'free speech' from a PAC and then pay 'free speech' to the networks. If he can't raise enough 'free speech' the candidate is screwed by the candidate who has raised the most 'free speech'.

I heard TP on Rush say he called for phasing out ethanol subsidies, in an Iowa speech.
Sounds like he might as well have sat grinning like a cat eating $h!t with Pelosi on her global warming couch.

Agree with your entire statement with ONE exception.

MSM do not call these people media they are not!!!!

They are THE PROPAGANDA ARM OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY

Call them what they are not what they pretend to be!!
