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

Do you mean over good as in President Herman Cain ???
Or over bad...as in 4 more years ???
Hey Romney, GO AWAY.
I’ve seen the same things that you have. A few of them are worth talking to and debate honestly, the majority of them however are bitter political hacks and liars.
um... because McCain was a Christian.
That’s why I put the hypothetical “IF” in my post.
I don’t think it’ll happen. I believe that Cain can take this nomination and if Romney gets it (G-D forbid) I don’t believe he’d pick Cain.
*IF* all the wrong stars aligned and this hypothetical scenario did happen, I don’t think that it would be any more hypocritical of a situation than we had in ‘08.
Agreed. A ticket with Romney will not get my vote.
No, she didn’t, she asked a hypothetical. DUMBASS (how do you like it?)
“implied message”
In the words of Ronald Reagan, “There you go again...”
Notice that you are not getting an answer. :)
Over as in good. As in Cain / Gingrich will win. And that my friend will be a powerful team that will get things done.
I'd like to address your statement that Perry supporters are becoming his worst enemy.
I began reading this thread about the SC poll. Within a few posts, I see a sarcastic message that shows Perry crashing in a series of "rocket explosion" pictures. Followed by several people cheering and laughing about it.
As a Perry supporter, that offended me and I reacted to it. Admittedly, with bad language, and the moderator removed my post.
Then you asked me why I wouldn't be happy if Romney won with Cain as his V.P.
Followed by Perry supporters are his worst enemy. I guess its ok to make sarcastic attacks on Perry's campaign, but his supporters should sit back and be quiet? And if we speak up in his defense, we're the mean ones?
Please.
My entire point is vote for PERRY because he can win and because he's a fine candidate and a true conservative. Romney is NOT.
Sorry, but Cain is the true Tea Party conservative.
Yes they would.
I liked in that debate that Herman Cain said he would pick Newt when he is nominated...
Ya notice that Perry and Romney chickened out...
I think it would be a good thing if we had some idea who was on their short list BEFORE the primary...
Like whats the use of voting for a conservative if he intends to choose a sold out RINO for his runing mate ???
So why would Cain supporters not be happy with this as well? How is it ‘dumb’ to hope that our candidate at least gets an executive position to help him qualify for the presidential nomination later?
Grunthor just called me a liar. Netizen called me a dumbass.
I used the same word Netizen used and my post was removed by a moderator.
Those are Marie's words, not mine.
If you're telling me I'm a liar and a dumbass for suggesting Marie's words sound like she's "OK" with Romney winning and Cain being his VP, then maybe I am.
I think that is why he said it. To let us know what he's thinking.
From the article:
Among Tea Party supporters, Cain leads with 35%, followed by Perry at 16% and Romney at 15%.
My entire point is vote for PERRY because he can win and because he's a fine candidate and a true conservative. Romney is NOT.
Sorry, but Cain is the true Tea Party conservative.
Ya notice that Perry and Romney chickened out...
You must have selective memory loss.
As I recall it, Cain said he would pick Gingrich. Perry said he would pick a hybrid of Gingrich and Cain. Romney said he would pick Cain.
You may want to DVR that and try again.
“Then you asked me why I wouldn’t be happy if Romney won with Cain as his V.P. “
I was only wondering why it would be different than McCain/Palin. We were all pretty happy about that. It was a legitimate question.
Did I say that I’d be alright with it? Nope. Never. I was just wondering what we’d do if we found ourselves in such an unlikely quandary.
I was addressing an issue that Perry supporters continue to raise - over and over and over again - with a question of my own.
So now I ask you this, why do Perry supporters hate Cain so much?
As I see it, all of the vitriol came when Cain started surging. The main argument isn’t that Cain isn’t a true conservative or that he doesn’t embody conservative ideals...
It’s that they believe that only Perry can beat Romney. That he’s our only hope.
As Cain surges in the polls and begins to overtake Romney, why aren’t Perry supporters at least happy that Romney can still go down? Cain is doing at least as well as Perry did against Romney a month ago.
To answer your charge that Cain supporters are being mean about Perry:
The reason why Cain supporters are so mad is that Perry supporters have been a pain in the butt for almost two months now. I’ve been a FReeper for nearly 12 years and I’ve never been slammed as a RINO, a Paulbot, stupid, etc like I have when I tried to raise legitimate concerns about Perry. I live in Texas and this guy has been a personal thorn in my side for years.
You ask why we gloat? Well, your group has been viscous for months and many of us are getting sick of it. The few who actually were willing to discuss the issues with me in a rational way were actually scoring points in my mind and I was starting to look at Perry with an open mind. Not convinced, but not hating quite so hard. I was starting to see him as a lesser evil than Romney. (That was a big step for me)
But about three weeks ago, the nastiness, name-calling and word twisting started and I am now shut down. I have no reason to fight my own conscience to find a way to be alright with Perry.
I now have a candidate that agrees with 90% of my own values. I’m tired of being called names and attacked. I’m not listening any more, Perry-people.
Thats refreshing after the secrets of the current administration isnt it ???
