While I generally think we have some of the very best in the nation, I am getting extremely annoyed with the conservative Talk Radio heads here in Milwaukee....(Belling, Sykes, Weber, and even Vickie McKenna) all of whom are referring to Herman Cain with sneering, "just an unqualified pizza guy who runs crazy commercials" "no campaign organization...just interested in going on a book tour" sort of comments. They totally dismiss him out of hand, and I now turn them off as soon as the subject comes up.

I've never listened to Belling, Sykes, etc, but I agree with their analysis. Sorry, Cain is a good guy who I think has absolutely zero chance to win a national election. Too much of a political novice, too much of a gaffe machine, too likely to blow up his own campaign by saying stupid stuff because he is not polished enough to know how to deflect and otherwise avoid answering questions or making statements that will play horribly in the media (which would result in endless distracting controversy and knock him off message constantly). He'd get the solid conservative vote and that is about it - which is just not enough to win a national election. If we could just appoint a President, Cain might be just the guy for the job - but I don't think he can win a presidential election. The reality is Perry is in fact probably the only person that really stands between Romney the chameleon and the GOP nomination.
