I will support Cain. I like everything he says.
I like Perry, I like his track record.
I dont like Romney. He is machine. The party structure likes him, the MSM call him inevitable. Every party Republican, whatever, inevitable, if elected, goes native.
GOES NATIVE. This is what people who care, dislike about the current Republicans. Once elected, Democrat light.
Machine hates outsiders.
If we are going to have an expanding Government and collapsing economy, It may as well be rightfully under another America-hating Democrat or a globalist like Romney who would continue this practice of sticking his nose into the world.
Cain=Huckabee
Romney=McCain
Should Cain succeed in breaking the political mold then he will have done us a great service.
Interesting point.
Cain is surging IN SPITE of all the talking heads. He is doing everything opposite from their advice.
He is his own man
His rationale?? Rove prefers a rich-white-liberal-big business-big government liberal like Romney?

Running a Pizza company where the toughest decision is to open or close a Pizza joint and to increase or reduce the price of a Pizza is not a qualification to run the most powerful government in the history of mankind. The decisions that the President make affect the lives of all Americans and in many cases the entire world and Pizza CEO does not qualify to make these decisions the same way a community organizer showed us that he does not qualify to do this. Having a degree in Math does not qualify someone to be a President. Being a good debater does not qualify someone to be President because a President does not enact polices in 30 seconds sound bites and does not negotiate with Congress in 3 seconds zingers, Presidents do not govern by debates.
If Herman Cain is the nominee, I would not vote for President on the ballot. I would just vote for Congress and the elected offices down the ballot.
I love that the American people are waking up and are engaged in this campaign. It isn’t about the moneyed campaigns, and it keeps good people from running. If we really want to throw off the political elite ruling class and get back to letting elections being about the best candidate winning, the emphasis on fund-raising and who has the biggest war chest/machine has to be sidelined. Maybe I’m idealistic but that is what democracy and America was supposed to be about. I find the ‘retail’ campaign of Herman Cain refreshing.
I hope we can get beyond money and powerful camaign organizations and let the next leader be elected by WE THE PEOPLE. Let the best man or woman win.
I hope.
Oh, don’t worry , he’s a pro alright, 999=666.
“Who, pray tell, is yelling Stop today? It sure isnt Washington Republicans. Now, dont misunderstand methese days, I believe there is generally no question about which party to support. I am a proud, albeit frustrated, Republican. I am frustrated because Republicans have so often been part of the problem in Washington, rather than standing on principle to give voice to the American people. We should not endeavor to be better than Democrats only by defaultthat is, Democrat Lite. Rather we should endeavor to demonstrate that we believe in something bigger than ourselves.” p.140

Love it....next thing you’ll hear “Cain the job killer”...destroying GOP pundit jobs.
(AP) Herman Cain has single handedly destroyed a number of overpaid GOP inside the beltway executive level positions to the delight of his fans and supporters.
The Hermanator as he is known to his friends and supporters has forced Karl Rove to corner of 7th and Pennsylvania Ave. Holding a sign saying “I will Pundit for Peanuts”
My have has no use for Rove goes back to his Bush daze spkeman when there were repeated attacks on that administration and no response to those attacks...
I for one am totally enjoying watching the political pundits go crazy over the thought that Cain is bypassing them and going straight to the American people and making tremendous headway while they sit and insist it is up to themselves to choose for us (uneducated, unsophisticated). It is totally beyond their belief that we, the unsophisticated, could or would choose someone that they have not “vetted”. Herman Cain was able to turn around two big corporations, I hope he gets the chance to turn around the US, it after all will be much the same when all is said and done......spend less than you take in.
"Go Mitt. Go Mitt. Go Mitt"
"Rove has made no secret
of his support for Romney as McCain's VP. "
On what base does Rove have this huge reputation?
He managed to win 2 elections by the skin of his teeth in 2000 and 2004 that he should of won handily. He managed the utterly disastrous showing of the GOP in 2006 and 2008. And the election in 2002 had way more to do with the Post 09-11 election environment then anything Rove managed.
Rove's reputation is vastly overblown.
It’s very frustrating to have the media, the talking heads and the party establishment all trying to tell the voters which candidate is best for them. How about we try letting the voters decide this time? All of the above didn’t do such a great job with McCain last time around did they? We have a good field, we just need a great team. I think VP talk should be a part of each candidate’s strategy so the voters can get an idea of what kind of team we would have. Every candidate on the stage could be a part of the team by filling in cabinet positions. Then we’d get somewhere!
I am GETTING SICK of listening to Rove. I heard him recently in a radio interview and he made absolutely no sense as he hem hawed around three different tax plans and in the end, he pretty much said that nothing significant is going to change in the tax code.
This thinking is why no significant changes to VERY REAL problems have been made in almost two decades. These Congressmen sit in Washington and tinker around with existing programs but almost purposely avoid real reforms. It is obvious that they have some level of protection from the problems the rest of us face and many have no desire to change that.
Karl Rove doesnt think Herman Cain stands a chance of being POTUS.
I think Rove’s glory days are behind him. Furthermore,I think Rove stands a good chance of being irrelavent in upcoming Presidential election if he isn’t already. Except as a shill for oRomney. These anti-Cain Establishment pubs might as well come right out and say Romney gives them a tingle up their leg.
Karl Rove is making lots of us in the country madder & madder with his pontificating about what ANY candidate is doing.
“Wasting his time going to ‘God-forsaken Tennessee’???
How much can you insult an electorate, Rove?
there are many very productive, independent people in Tennessee.
Tennessee has drawn many transplants from other states with their fiscal attitude—not just raising taxes to spend more money—they actually don’t try to do social projuects that are thinly disguised wealth reallocation.
They have no personal income taxes & a very low Workmen’s Comp system—because they don’t take claims for WC lightly—they investigate.
Home prices are decent & propety taxes are fair.
This is something other states could study & learn from.
I happen to know people in Tennessee who left California & their insatiable appetite for more & more taxes & workmen’s comp insurance with no justification. After luring millions of illegals into Calif, natives of that state are leaving in droves.
The attitude of the East Coast Elite Republican Old Guard, like Karl Rove, have apparently totally forgotten about people in Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Missouri, etc. We DO COUNT—and we are NOT stupid.
You are turning every one of us Republicans off more & more each day.
Herman Cain is a breath of fresh air.
Perhaps you should aquaint yourself with some better facts, MR ROVE!!!!!
