That's what we need in the WH
Heard bits & pieces only. Damn he hit everything out of the ball-park.
Cain and Allen West, UNSTOPPABLE COMBINATION! I am on board with that!
The response to Cain was immediate. I’d read about him on FR, but my wife had never heard of him before. Same for my mother.
They both came away incredibly impressed. I was impressed also. This guy Cain is a rock star. I wonder how he will hold up when the campaign season ramps up and begins to get heated.
I heard Herman Cain speak at a local tea party last weekend. I really liked his position on cutting taxes and getting business moving again. I live in Santorum’s old stomping grounds and I think he is a creep, has some good positions on things but he is not trustworthy.
I watched parts of the debate. Luntz’s focus group thought that Herman Cain definitely won the debate, and Santorum came in second. Mitt Romney definitely hurt himself by not being there.
Like I said, I didn’t see all of the debate. But I’m sorry; Santorum always comes off as an obnoxious know-it-all snob. He has no personality except for arrogance. Assertiveness is fine — good quality for a president. Arrogance is not. We know that from Obama.
How 'bout Bachmann's little stint with Treasury?
“He reminded me a lot of Fred Thompson, even in his delivery.”
“Is that praising with faint damn; or damning with faint praise?”
What I mean, is when I first heard Fred Thompson’s daily Radio commentaries, even before I knew his political leanings, I liked the guy. He connected. Cain connects.
Time for a Beer, enough coffee already, catch you guys later tonight. Have fun discussing our next President!!!!
If the GOP is smart enough to nominate him, I will definitely look forward to and enjoy voting for Herman Cain. The debates with him and obama would be very educational and the kind of wake up call we need after obama's mass electoral somnambulism.
If I was a director filling the role of a dynamic campaign candidate - I would look elsewhere.
He was not a dynamic speaker known for his killer ‘delivery’.
Now a “connection” - that is better! Thanks for the clarification. I didn't watch. I read - I don't watch - so I miss “delivery”.
I wouldn’t go as far as you did and call Santorum a creep, but he’s not impressing me. I’ve read inspiring political commentaries of his and he is able to put good conservative thought into words, and I longed hoped he would seek seriously the office of the Presidency. But there is another Santorum when there is a microphone in front of him that is somewhere between a complete bore, and a Romney Light. Last night we saw the complete bore.
Yep
What makes you think Herman Cain is an “affirmative action black?” Please cite your source for proof of this statement.
Anyone who stumps for arlen spector reigns as creep in my book. Santorum knows how to speak well and has some genuine conservative principals but he is a career politician and has no chance of beating zero.
