Herman Cain now leading the Republican pack

1 (only one) FAVORABLE news article,
and EVERYBODY flocks to Cain.

This shows how DESPERATE the Republicans are to find somebody, ANY-FRIGGIN-BODY, to defeat that "always talks about HIMSELF and never once helped another person in his life"
killer-of-America, Barry H. Obama, immature megalomaniacal little brat who we allow to command our friggin NUCLEAR SUBS? our Foreign policy? Our home bureaucracy?

That Barry has an ego the size (almost) of Mick Jagger....it's ALL about ME ME ME ME !!!

Insanity run amok!


The SOLE great flaw in our way of selecting leaders is:

the smooth - talker always beats the GOOD, BETTER, APPROPRIATE person every time (thank you press!)

Barry O has easily been, together with Jimmy Carter, the most damaging experience suffered by our U S A!

Only worse thing could be if the MONSTEROUS devil who activates Hillary, the socialist who truly believes America's free-enterprise success is the source of int'l problems so therefore let's "tear-USA-down to rest of the world level" (go read up on "sex slave Cathy O'Brian"), got in there.



WE NEED A COMPETITIVELY VIABLE 3RD PARTY!!!!!

Would've been Ron Paul, but he's too old.

N E E D!!!!!



N E E D !!!!!!

Otherwise those FGod-Damned Clinton, Bush, Bilgerburgher, Trilatral Commission, Bohemian Grove, IMF, World Bank guys & blackheart gals will CONTINUE leading YOUR NOSE-RING you stupid bull(shitter).

The way I look it right now, its 13.6 months until the presidential election of 11/2012, and its hard to get excited since the real GOP primary season does not start for a 140 days.

But the GOP has always been a minority party in the US with only 40% or so of registered voters. At it this point it looks like no more than 30% of the GOP electorate is even remotely resembling excited thus far.

So about 12% of US electorate (.4 x .3 =.12 ) is thus far engaged, and when Gov Perry and/or Herman Cain get maybe 25% in some random poll or other, we are talking only about 4% of the US electorate support for a given "front running" GOP candidate.

But still there is the Rumpelstiltskin principle, as we are still searching for that Maiden who can spin straw into gold.
 
Mark it, Obama will pick Hillary to be his running mate in 2012. The R's will be bouncing back and forth between the flavors of the week for the next few months, whoever screws up the least will end up on the ticket
 
I hope Cain wins the primary just so we can call democrats racist for voting for the half-white candidate over the black candidate. Also any time they bring up any issue we disagree with, we don't have to bother arguing with them anymore since we can just call them racist for not agreeing with us.
 
I actually like Cain. he tells it like it is and does not look like a crooked slimeball greasy career politician like Romney and Perry. Cain is also a small business man and that holds a lot of weight for me. he seems more connected to the working stiffs unlike the other two asshats.

No, he doesn't. 'I will not have any Muslims work for me' is not 'refreshig honesty'.

No he's not. His employers were Coca-Cola and Pillsbury, running a large subsidiary.

That's a stupid statement.

Some TEA Party leaders are black.

The only color the TEA Party seems interested in is green (as in $'s).

Fern are you sure about this with all the research I have done on the Teapublicans they seem to be 99.99% white , angry and overwhelmingly ignorant.
 
I love that everybody and their mother is vying for the Rep. nomination. What a field. All of them (rightly) see Obama as quite vulnerable and can't wait to get into the White House. It's hilarious to see all these people up on the debate stage, busting their asses to distinguish themselves from one another, and at the same time terrified of saying one thing that Fox or CSPAN might pick up on and run all day and night with. Don't look now folks, but our political system is in ruins...
 
Republicans are a strange breed right now, First it was Willard, then they weren't happy with RomneyCare, so they went with Bachmann.

Then they wished Perry would run, because they still weren't happy. Now that Perry's in, they'll still not happy and are now wishing for Christie to join in.

I've checked numerous polls etc on them. What I saw was they were majority white, older, higher than average education and income. I think 99.99% white is too high.

But given the majority are self described Repubs and Indies (there was small % self-describing as Dems), yeah you must expect the majority to be white. However, there certainly are Blacks and Hispanics in the TEA Party.

I keep seeing people also throw out they are majority religious/Christian. I haven't seen that in a poll. I would guess it would be a stupid question because about 90% of Americans self-identify as religious/Christian anyway. Might as well ask if they are bi-pedal.

The interesting thing I saw in the polling was that tax cuts were a low priority (but clearly they do not want tax increases). The #1 priority was reduced govt spending.

Zogby interactive polling is based on a self-selecting, more motivated group of voters who must register on the Zogby website rather than traditional passive phone/IVR. You can register to be in the pool of people potentially polled.

The polling is done via the web. Basically it is not reliable. It may potentially show some trend but I have to see if any other polling shows anything close to this before I believe a Zogby internet poll.

Did not know this. And yeah, it sounds unreliable, sort of like a Ron Paul internet poll (no offense intended to Paulites).

I expect some new 'normal' poll soon. We'll see what effect the latest debates etc have had.

Who is "Willard"?

If you mean Romney, looks to me his polling numbers have remained very steady at 15-17%.

IMO, Perry is toast with his pro-illegal immigration stuff.

It's still a 'lifetime' until the 1st Repub nomination vote. Too early for much to shake out at this point IMO. At this point 'money' will soon determine who even makes it to the primaries. Nobody ever dropped out because they thought they couldn't win, they drop out for lack of money. And so far debates take almost no money, just a plane ticket and hotel. Wait until campaigning really starts and big bucks are needed for TV commercials etc.

Well he'll get the same amount of black support as any other Republican candidate. African Americans vote democrat, not black.

guess you did not know he left Pillsbury and ran 400 burger king's in philly.

Yes, he first ran them for Pillsbury then coordinated a buyout. But I would feel that running the size of company that it was starts to border on the definition of 'small' business - and his background was largely with those larger companies, with his new large Burger King franchise the same thing he ran as a subsidiary of Pillsbury.
 
I think some Democrats should try to nominate Obama for the Republican nomination, to make a point. They could make a great ad, like with his praise of Reagan.

Yeah, I remember that white guy who showed up with the gun to whatever Obama rally it was.

Until he turned out to be black, much to MSNBC's chagrin.
