Cain doesn’t give ambiguous answers. The yokels that he answers are just too stupid to understand him. Herman Cain is brilliant, and his questioners in the media are midgets in comparison. Even Michelle is either deliberately mis-stating Herman Cains statements, or she, too, is shrinking in importance by the minute. Even Gingrich is committing the Reagan sin. RWR is no doubt twisting in agony in his grave at these people!

To 40 - Exactly right you are, Rita.
No need for Perry to attack Cain as the latter is doing a good job attacking himself. I wonder what 999 will morph into this week? "Say amen!"

A bright and wonderful person once stated: "Rock it, Rick! I love substance and a record!!"

...and that, says it all.

You know I support Perry, but ... preach it, sister! Speaker Gingrich is thus far the only man on stage with his eye on the ball.

Rick Perry's Prime Directive: Destroy Cain

I guess it's an improvement on Perry's original strategy: Destroy Perry.

He's still a sinking fool.

I really think that Herman Cain will benefit if Perry tries to unload his mythical dirt on him. Those 2 prcenter Perry dollars will suddenly start going in another directrion if the Amerian people have any sense. The differences in the characters of the two men are bcoming more evident every day.

$17 million buys a lot of opposition research, as well as a team of people paid to disseminate it. Excuse me for suspecting that Politico columnists don’t spend their spare hours reading eight-year-old back issues of Human Events, IYKWIMAITYD.

It used to be you could get all the research you needed on FreeRepublic but I think most of those willing to put in the time are gone. Now everyone just goes around spamming the same copied talking points on endless articles from the blogosphere.

I think Cain is God’s version of Brer Rabbit’s “Tar Baby”.

Just let Perry swing once at Cain... he will seriously regret it.

That goes for any of them though... If they want to attack his plan, that’s just fine... I personally think they have some valid concerns and points in those regards... but I also think they can be worked out.

Point being, Cain strikes me as a true man of character with no fear, and a fighting spirit we have not seen since Reagan. If they want to try and destroy Cain, they better make sure to bring a knock out punch Cain cannot recover from, or leave well enough alone.

So here I am doing research for you. Maybe you should conduct a little yourself before you hop on the latest hairsprayed politician the RINOs put up as Mitt's stalking horse. http://www.michellemalkin.com/2011/08/18/plumbing-the-rest-of-the-perry-record/ Follow the links in the article. It'll do you good. He is soft on illegals. Assuming you need a link for THAT well-established aspect of Perry http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0811/61076.html He is a globalist. Google the Trans Texas Corridor. I'm not doing it for you. He is a crony capitalist. Google the Texas Enterprise Fund and see if you can figure out how he became a millionaire while in office. Just following the links in Malkin's article is enough to turn a conservative's stomach. If you ask a question you don't want answered, expect answers you don't want to hear. There is plenty more out there, far and away more than should be put in a single post. Most of this stuff is at least one year old. I'll be saving you a seat on the Cain Train.

This primary is not about The Usurping Marxist Onada.

It’s about the battle between conservatives and the demrat-controlled GOP RINOs. This battle, for the soul of our country, must be won by conservatives. You need to catch up.

I don’t see any basis in fact to this story-it’s pure speculation. Not one campaign source quoted, just simply one guy’s opinion of what Perry MUST do to win.

The reality is I don’t think Perry has any intention of going after anyone except Romney. That is where his energy is and has been directed. Furthermore, there are others like Bachmann and Santorum that need to win Iowa or their campaigns are finished. Most of their energy will be directed toward beating Cain, cause he is standing in THEIR way.

Posting a story like this is designed to gin up all kinds of negative reaction against a certain candidate, when there is zero evidence to support any of it.

That’s a real stretch. Perry never said his name and you claim that isn’t what Cain said, yet you accuse Perry of taking a swipe at him. WHAT?
