“I’m assuming you have no understanding of the volunteer force behind Herman Cain’s campaign, wherein hundreds, if not thousands, of supporters are putting in 12 to 16 hour+ days.....NO paycheck. They loyally and consistently dedicate their time and talents to Mr. Cain, believing him to be a true patriot with the best interest of America at heart.”

No, I simply don’t believe that a mom can be actively mothering while sitting on a computer 10 hours a day. That’s not a “personal attack” on a Cain volunteer, it’s an opinion regarding what activities are required to raise a child. Sure, you can tell a kid to do things and hold a kid and get up occasionally to do other things, but if you are literally sitting in front of a computer 10 hours a day, you will not be doing the other things that parenting demands. Volunteers are dedicated people, but I can’t believe that most parents could volunteer to that level and do both things well.

And I just don’t buy that someone really sits 10 hours a day without any other compensation, because too many ‘volunteers’ here are obviously shilling for their candidates full time, posting every 30 minutes a new puff piece for Perry or whoever. It’s unsubtle astroturfing. That isn’t volunteer level work.

I’ll call you on both points, and raise you a Cain!
