BAIER: Mr. Cain?
CAIN: This is a game, and it is hypothetical. I'll play the game.
(LAUGHTER)
If -- if Governor Romney would throw out his jobs growth plan and replace it with 999, he has a shot.
(LAUGHTER)
If he does not, I would probably go with Speaker Gingrich, who I have the greatest admiration for, in all seriousness, because of his history and because of his depth of knowledge. I could go on because I have respect for everybody up here. But it's a game.
(LAUGHTER)
When asked on Leno what he thought about the two men, the best thing he was willing to say about Romney was "good hair" but about Gingrich was "brilliant."
I think the most likely combinations are Cain/Rubio or Cain/Gingrich.
He's just lacking in integrity...

He was mocking Romney. Sarcasm.
His genuine admiration of Gingrich showed up when Leno went lightning on him--
Gingrich evoked brilliant.
Romney nice hair.
Perry good governor of Texas.
Paul crabby old man.
To say Cain is in a deal with Romney is to misconstrue his remarks.
Bachmann tagteamed Perry with Romney on Gardasil.
Cain is appearing at Liberty with Palin.
That Palin.
