Former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain says that if he was the party’s nominee, he would probably have a “substantial lead” on President Barack Obama by now.

“The reason is quite simple: I have some depth to my ideas,” the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO said in a speech at the University of Florida, The Gainesville Sun reports. He was speaking at the school as part of his “College Truth Tour.” …

How many guitar players does it take to change a light bulb...

One to change the bulb and two to stand around and say how much better they could do it.

Ok...You know if you were the nominee, that would mean you didn’t drop out at the first media swipe.

Romney has had that X 1000 and still is standing.

Romney can do that because 0bummer and the MSM really don't have anything on him that should disqualify him. Unlike Cain, no bimbo eruptions with Mitt.

I supported Cain, but I doubt his claim, and this is the wrong time for it. The job at hand is to beat Obama. The thing we should be out to prove right now is that Obama can be beaten.

Great article! Thanks for posting it. Rick Perry and Newt would also be far ahead of Obama by now.

Cain seems like a nice man but his persona is so ‘artificial’. He talks and acts as would an actor in a B movie and his speech sounds like poorly read lines from a script...........

He had my heart. Romney sort of has my head at this point.

Thank you for that - you articulated perfectly what I was trying to explain to someone the other day and just couldn't get it to come out right. This is exactly how I feel.

Mitt has run a terrible campaign...

No worse than has 0h bummer, but the MSM covers for the Obamanation. That's a big advantage.

It sounds like the argument Cain is making is that Obama can be defeated, but we chose a chameleon instead of a lion. Sure, he sounds better than the other guy, but is that enough?

Whatever happened to that lawsuit against those women who falsely accused of him sexual harassment?


Two women back in the day got cash settlements in Lawsuits involving Cain. Did Cain file something against them or is this something else?

When the Cain allegations came out, he said they were untrue and he hired some high-power libel attorney. No lawsuit was ever filed.

I donated to Cain early, but Herman, SHUT UP. The goal is to kick Obama out, not tell us how great you are.

For the life of me... I don’t understand the so called conservatives attacking our own today. It is like they want to go on record saying Romey is doing ALL the wrong things and can’t win! Makes me sick of those who are giving up!

Cain is one lying SOB and has a world class ego. Imagine finding out his little indescretions 50 days before this election.
