How many times do you have to be told that the presidential and vice presidential nominee can’t come from the same state?

Herman Cain cannot sustain himself over the long haul. That may hurt your feelings and be disappointing, but every candidate has to KNOW they need huge amounts of campaign cash to make the long run. He simply doesn't.

It is this line of defeatist thinking that has given us nominees like John McCain and Bob Dole. Fall behind the establishment candidate that can bring in the campaign cash. This is a losing strategy, not just for the GOP but for America as a whole.

Herman Cain may not seem like he has a lot of big money behind him now, but if he can win some of the early primaries (i.e. Iowa, SC) and establish himself as a frontrunner, people will be tripping over themselves to give him campaign money.

Herman Cain’s Dream Running Mate Is Mitt Romney (Or Newt).

Rick Perry's is a Cain/Gingrich hybrid.

Cain endorsed Romney in 2008.

Romney said vote for him or Cain yesterday.

Do the math and get back with me.

I agree with your assessment, by the way. But its anecdotal. The reality for anyone in the race is they have to bring a cash cow to the game. You and I can dislike that aspect of American politics all we want - and even fight against it. But it doesn't change today, nor the reality that Cain is going to lack funds.

This is exactly why I explained what I did earlier - that Cain will probably dwindle down and run out of money, essentially handing the race over to Romney.

Why can't people figure that out? If I'm the big dummy, its gonna make ya'll look awful silly in the end.

I have never seen a group lock together so angrily and nastily.

That's the way Perry's hired gun Carney trains 'em.

How many times must you be told that one of them can move, like Cheney did.

“Cain will win. Then he’ll pick Newt and this thing is over.”

Hope you’re right.

Bush was from Texas, Cheney was from Wyoming - they are different states.

I agree with your post 39.
The Pbots are nasty, and only hurt their chosen candidate.

I am so pleased Mr.Cain is doing so well.

I am ready to make a contribution to this fine American.

Due to a Freeper heads-up, I caught Cain on Hannity last night. With each and every speaking engagement, Herman impresses more and more.

Go, Herman, Go!

Rock America like a HermanCain!

Of course he won’t pick Cain if he wins and I do not think he will. BUT if he does he will pick someone just like him. Maybe one of the 2 traitors twins, Snowe or Collins.

I didn’t like Perry because of his stance on immigration. That was prior to the debates that have taken place. Until the debates I was open to changing my mind. However, it was clear to me, in the debates, that the community organizer Kenyan thug would chew him up and spit him out. I can assure you the candidate that Barry Soetoro would least like to debate is Herman Cain. That is his worst nightmare. Cain will go after the Kenyan and he knows it.

A debate with Romney would be useless. Barry and Mitt would just sit there and agree with each other, they are too much alike. It’s clear the GOP establishment has chosen Romney. The question is, will the people tell them to go to hell in the primaries or will they follow the party’s choice. They chose McCain for us and we all see how well that worked out. It gave us a halfrican, Marxist, Muzzie, Chicago community organizer, homo, thug.

Thanks, that was great to see. If Perry stays near single-digits, it’s over for him.

But it’ll bite when he goes off and endorses Romney (that’s just the type of person he is).

Newt could high-tail it out to Wyoming.

Wasn’t McCain broke and abandoned at this point in the last prez-cycle?

Cheney was a Texas resident and quickly moved back to Wyoming to qualify.

Of course it is, come to Darlington on race day and you will see some of the most racist action you can imagine.

I’m tired of seeing this. It’s misleading. He was a Wyoming resident according to the court.
