Don't expect Herman Cain to endorse any of the Republican presidential candidates before Tuesday's Iowa caucuses

Cain's campaign manager, Mark Block, tells The Associated Press that Cain hasn't seen in any of the GOP candidates the commitment and resolve to make bold changes to put the country back on track.

“I don’t care who Cain endorses. I find them all just as unacceptable as I found him to be as a candidate.”

You know, I’m almost sympathetic to your frustration except, there is no one better than Rick Perry. Consider him with a perfect partner, who I once believed was Palin, and I just know we have a huge chunk of our country back. Add an AG with integrity and loyalty to all the people, not just minorities, we’re moving. Bring in a Secretary of the Treasury who loves his country enough to pay his own taxes without having to be caught, we’re in business. I can’t sell you on Rick Perry. He has to do that and he’s running out of time. Although he’s not exactly running in place, I expect his mad dash to come in South Carolina. Listen to see if there’s something there to like.

I would like to know who your ideal candidate would be.

Still like Cain__too bad his bimbo eruptions derailed the train. Herman is not suited to handle all of the BS that goes along with the presidency although the man has leadership abilities. I say enjoy your retirement years Herman and scrooge politics.
It all shucks Bigtime.

The equal protection of innocent human life is non-negotiable, being as it is the primary reason we even have government.

Rick Perry is pro-choice for states on abortion, just like Gerald R. Ford and Ron Paul. That’s a deal-killer.

So is his promise to the Susan B. Anthony List to support immoral, unconstitutional “fetal pain” legislation. The constitutional criteria is whether or not they are a person, not whether or not they can feel pain. And even Perry admits that the child is a person.

I wonder if he thinks it is okay to put a bullet through the heart of a paraplegic, since they won’t feel a thing, or to off Grandpa if you give him enough morphine?

Because there is no moral difference between the child in the womb and any other person.

That could very well leave a few marks.”

Sadly, the marks may stick to Mr. Cain first. What happened to his commitment and resolve?

“The equal protection of innocent human life is non-negotiable, being as it is the primary reason we even have government.”

Rick Perry is about as pro-life as anyone can get. If his strengths in that area don't satisfy your need to have complete government control over the issue, then you're absolutely correct to look elsewhere.
His views have changed and strengthened over the years. That's what missionaries go on missions for. To change people's minds, views and beliefs. You should be celebrating, NARAL loathes Rick Perry and his pro-life stance.
Also, Perry changed his mind on a key issue which is rape and incest. That's what the pro-life movement demanded. It's unlikely to change any pro-life vote because you can't satisfy them. Here is more criticism. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/12/28/1049394/-Rick-Perry-transforms-from-anti-choice-extremist-to-anti-choice-extremist

Your following comment is despicable,”I wonder if he thinks it is okay to put a bullet through the heart of a paraplegic, since they won’t feel a thing, or to off Grandpa if you give him enough morphine?” especially to those of us who have lost loved ones. You may think you're righteous, but believe me, you should be filled with self-doubt on that.

You're a good match for Governor Perry, frankly.

Your following comment is despicable

How so? Please explain the moral difference between lawless laws that say that unborn persons can be killed if they can't feel pain and saying that it is okay to shoot paraplegics, who can't feel pain, or that it is okay to kill innocent people if you give them enough morphine.

“You’re a good match for Governor Perry, frankly.”

No. You’re wrong. He’s a good match for me. My standards are high. My love for mankind is great.

All kinds of wonderful people in the world. I don’t judge. Rick Perry doesn’t meet your standards as good a man as he is? Pity. I’d still like you to say who it is that meets your standards. Name. You have already said it’s not one of our current or ex candidates. Who is it?

I would like to add one thing. I don’t believe abortions should be funded with taxpayer dollars anywhere in the world under any circumstances ever. That they are, infuriates me. I also wish there was no such thing as miscarriages. What is your plan to stop that? I wish children of any age didn’t die. I wish old people didn’t have to die ever. I wish there was no pain that Tylenol can’t fix. Who is your candidate?

You didn’t explain your prior nasty comment.

You’re spouting a bunch of weird nonsense.

And you just tried to put words in my mouth.

Three strikes, yer out.

I don't need to explain to you why I was offended by your opinion. I thought it was despicable to speak those words.Just my opinion.

“You’re spouting a bunch of weird nonsense.”
Well, a lot of people do. Life's not fair.

Who is your candidate?

I don’t have one. Don’t like any of them. Reading comprehension problems?
