Herman Cain leads by 20 points!

The "Democratic Nightmare" is now saying that he's "not supposed to know anything about foreign policy."

It's been this way for years. Say what you want to about them but the Democrats have consistently nominated Rhodes Scholars, Harvard Law grads, law professors, etc... The GOP seems unable to find people who can locate Iran on a map.

at this point there's really no way to avoid the fact that Herman Cain is a clown.

THere's no avoiding the '4 (or god knows how many) women' claiming he harassed them makes him un-electable, and probably un-nominatable.

Once again from this site, here is the average of various disparate polls. One of these polls had Romney with 24% and Cain with 14%. Another had Cain with 25% and Romney with 18%. So, this average may be as inaccurate as these individual polls.

Romney 22.0%
Cain 21.3
Gingrich 17.6
Perry 9.9
Paul 7.3
Bachmann 4.1
Santorum 1.9
Huntsman 1.3
undecided (by implication) 14.6

Granted that these polls are highly volatile - as is, so it seems, the Republican nomination - what is interesting is that Gingrich now seems within striking distance of making this a three-way race with Romney and Cain.

What I find somewhat appalling is that Bachmann's share has actually increased lately.

Newt! Newt! Newt! Newt!

C'mon, baby! We could have some real mud-slinging butt whupping primaries, guys! Newt could actually give Romney a run and take the nomination the way things are going. There's a solid bloc supporting Mitt, but it doesn't go above that same range of support. I think that's an indication that he just can't pull the teabaggers. Newt can. And Newt can take the whole southern bloc, including Texas and Florida. At this point, I'm almost ready to say we could be looking at Obama v Gingrich in 2012.

Jon Stewart just showed a clip of a reporter asking Cain, "Do you think your Libya comments reinforce the idea that you lack a thorough understanding of foreign policy?" And Cain turns to the camera and says "9-9-9."

He should have said "9-1-1... Somebody call it because I'm getting slaughtered here."

Obviously we need someone other than Romney.

No more needs be said.

It says a lot that Liberals are willing to consider the qualities of a candidate regardless of political affiliation. It says even more that you are not.

If there is no more to your political philosophy than who you consider an ally and an enemy, then I suggest that you are not engaging in politics so much as petty tribalism.

Or it says that the flaws in judgement which enamored liberals with Obama may be at work again, this time toward Romney.

No more needs be said.

The ability to look beyond party first and foremost is a 'flaw in judgement'?

There was NO "ability to look beyond party first and foremost" capability in those true blue souls who catapulted into office an empty suit, based on a fine marketing campaign, in 2008.

I certainly would like to see a bit of judgement this time around. But "anything other than obama" does not quite rise to the level of "judgement". Still it has a nice ring to it.

Oh, Newt can think on his feet, all right. He'll probably finish pretty high, but you know how everybody guns for you if you're up front. Newt hasn't faced really tough questions about his previous actions yet. When he does, he's going to need every bit of slickness he can muster, because he has a lot of baggage.

And all the polls I've seen show him losing to Obama by ten percentage points or more.

Why hasn’t the media been gunning for Romney? He’s been up front for months. Are they saving the dirt on Romney for the election against Obama a year from now?
 
Why not gunning for/against Romney? I imagine the others are more outrageous and laughable and constantly add more gaffes to their record...
 
Tricky said:
Considering some of what the GOP has said, that's significantly better than answering the question. If it had been Bachmann, she would have said something unbelievably stupid and probably wrong.

Then again, it is a bit unfair to ask Republicans if they agree with something that was a clear and very popular success for the Obama administration. They are suppose to criticize him, but it's kinda hard. The most they can do is say, "I agree with the outcome, but I would have done it better."

No, Bachmann would have criticized Obama for supporting the Libyan opposition without know who they were suggesting a possible connection to AQ, Muslim Brotherhood, or other Islamic extremists. Not stupid at all.

And the basis of your assertion that Gingrich is supported by Jewish money is . . .?

Jewish money always supports Zionist candidates who will obey the Jews. Gingrich is the latest goy to do battle with Romney who for some apparent reason the Jews despise.

So your "evidence" is your own blanket assertion without facts?

Are you paying attention at all? Romney is not getting a free pass from the media. Far from it. It is true, however, that he has not inserted his foot in his mouth as deeply as some of the other GOP candidates, so is not as interesting to newsmen.

MaGZ, you're priceless. Don't ever change. We might catch every other poster in here flip-flopping or waffling, but you stay right on track, don't you?
