My goodness, Cain bash much, people. I applaud him for this. The whole endorsement thing is stupid anyway. Anyone who votes based on how someone else tells them to is an intellectually lazy idiot. Maybe Cain feels that people should take the time to actually research candidates’ positions. What a novel idea.

Hardly. Endorsements can make a very big difference especially from someone very popular like a Palin or a Reagan. You missed the point viewing an endorsement like an order or even an instruction. It's simply a public person taking a stand of preference in a race and that can be an indicator to folks on the fence like you would suggest who might be influenced by the inclinations of someone they admire. It is not a command and I'm sure many folks will go the other way yet overall an endorsement from someone like Cain would have weight.

These folks have been running either openly or hinting at it since a year ago. I'm sorry but anyone who cannot figure out who they prefer by now maybe should find something else to indulge in or as in the case of Cain...is playing it safe for their own interest.

What I found silly is that he pimped this for weeks and now it looks like the idea of a not so serious man who is trying to keep his own flame hot..in vain in my view.
