“If that is your view, you are not pro-life,” he said, without mentioning Cain by name. “You are pro having your cake and eating it too.”

Cain is more pro-life than you, Perry. I would be very careful about picking a fight on that particular hill, based entirely on a misrepresentation of Cain's comments.

I was most impressed by Gingrich's speech, and his Q&A session as well. When he's on his game, nobody does it better. Cain needs to keep it simple and not get caught up in media gotcha games. He'll be fine. Gingrich/Cain 2012.

Cain is now truly a front runner if he is taking shots at the debates.

I wonder if Governor Perry thinks it's a liberal cannard to spend a million dollars of one’s own money fighting for the pro life cause.

It is a liberal canard to say I am personally anti-illegal immigration, but the state government I run rewards illegals with in-state tuition, welfare, medical, food stamps and numerous other goodies and I’m against building a border fence, 2ndDivisionVet told the Perrywinkles.

Perry is embarrassing Texas more each and every day.

“It is a liberal canard to say I am personally pro-life, but government should stay out of that decision,” Texas Governor Rick Perry told the Iowa forum, held in an exhibition hall at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. “If that is your view, you are not pro-life,” he said, without mentioning Cain by name. “You are pro having your cake and eating it too.”

Perry is the most repulsive person ever in politics. He is such a traitor and LIAR. I can’t wait until he drops out. He is a big loser and worthless human being. How dare this TURD go after a patriotic conservative human being.

I think the people can see clearly why Perry and Bachmann are doing that, and it won’t bolster the popularity of either of them. These two, and any others who try the same shenanigans, will only bury themselves deeper in the polls.

Our country is at stake! Why are we not hearing what these cry babies would do to save it? That is what Herman Cain talks about. He doesn’t ding his competitors. He is a Statesman!

As I’ve said elsewhere the differences in calibre of character becomes more evident every day. Victory too Herman Cain!

Petty infighting makes them all less attractive to me, even Michelle when she tries to spotlight something in another candidate to try to marginalize them, makes her look petty. Cain sizzles ‘cause he has originality and a fresh bold approach. To Cain I say, don’t sweat the small stuff, that is the only thing the others can hit you on, is small stuff...

Great points and wouldn’t you would think by now the other candidates would take a lesson from Cain in that regard. While other candidates cry, whine and criticize each other, Cain stands tall and offers real ideas in an effort to solve the nation’s problems.

Bachmann was on Fox tonight and had all her canned talking points,as usual.

She is about as boring as watching paint dry.

Talk about gaffes - she makes them on a regular basis. I think even her NH Staff realized she's not got what it takes to be POTUS.

JMHO.

OTOH, if you stay above the fray, you’re accused of running for someone’s VP slot. It’s truly a darned if you can do, darned if you can’t situation...

Cain is going to be walking into a lot more of those traps now that he’s within striking distance of Romney. He should be strong enough to prevail.

Cain is more pro-life than you, Perry.

Cain is more conservative than La Raza Rick, period.

Rick Perry please......as a Texan I’m personally against forcing young girls to have innoculations decreed by state govt that you supported. And unless Roe v Wade gets overturned its still legal to have abortions however heinous that truly is. Cain is most assuredly pro-life so stop the sniping at him on this issue.

What is the source for Cain spending a million of his own money? What did you do with it? Where did he give it?
