Herman Cain out

[Zedtom]

It seems like things really started to unravel when the Secret Service protection was brought in. Maybe they were doing background checks on people he associates with and skeletons started popping up.

So I wonder if Spidey is still on the Cain Train?

I expect that we're looking at Romney at the end of the campaign day. He's a more viable candidate than Newt, might even win. Dems will vote for Obama, Reps for whomever and the independents toss a coin or stay home.

noooo my fav candidate out!!

noooo my fav candidate out!!

Since this subforum is pretty much politics-as-sport, we ought to have fantasy parties and elections, just like professional sports

The Cain Train derailed...

I was enjoying the lulz

Well shit, there goes any chance the Repubs had of gaining the black vote [but i guess rednecks will vote for them now].

Black Walnut isn't a flavor of the week! er... so much for that

Cain himself seemed to handle these personal attacks rather poorly. He didn't have the artistry at campaigning to rise above the BS, which is rather sad because this nation could have used a 9-9-9 tax plan and no one would have pushed harder than the man behind it.

In his place stand the big gov Neocons ready to 'Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran'. Romney and Gingrich stand ready to pick up the mantle GWB left for future Presidents. This is not a good thing, Conservatives need a President and we don't have one in the position to be nominated let alone elected.

Ron Paul looks better every day in contrast to the Neocons.

This country needs a 9-9-9 tax plan like Cain needs more sexual harassment allegations levied against him!

The title of this thread should read: Herman the Clown out

Cain scrubbed his website for any comparisons between VAT and the 999 plan

Conservatives love the the flat tax but Cain's crazy 999 plan resembles a VAT consumption tax. In a fury to cover his right flank on the 999 plan, the Cain campaign has apparently gone out of its way to scrub any references to VAT and from his website.

The scoring document for Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 plan — along with references to a value added tax (VAT) — are missing from the campaign’s website. And links to the plan from critical articles written in recent weeks no longer work. For example, writing in the New York Times on October 11, Bruce Bartlett critiqued Cain’s plan, writing, “… attention is being drawn to his platform, especially what he calls the 9-9-9 tax plan.” But clicking on that link today, sends the reader to an error page which says: “Like an Obama policy, this 404 page gets you nowhere.” It used to go here: http://www.hermancain.com/images/economicgrowth.pdf Also broken is this: http://www.hermancain.com/docs/999_Scoring_Tables.pdf

Next GOP debate is going to be chaired by the DONALD...LMAO I thought it was an excerpt from the Onion until I dug deeper.

This will beat any reality show on T.V. which isn't saying much

LMAO to Nov 2012

Hopefully they have a dance-off and then a call-in ballot to determine the winner. Then the Donald can fire all the losers.

Now who are the late night shows going to find to harass?

Any of them? They are all easy prey.

Cain is not Abel. Everyone knows this.
