Thats funny.

Reports indicate Ron Paul as the leader in (2) Iowa polls.  I wonder which one Cain was doing well in?

What is interesting is that all districts with hand ballots Paul smoked the competition, in districts with computer ballots, he didn’t do squat.

Yes he is for real, and that is what is so tragic about the current status of this nation!

All in all, he appears to be very “presidential” and “electable” to me!

I understand there are charges of alleged workplace sexual harassment involving several women and Mr.Cain. Would you believe one of his favorite people and role models is Clarence Thomas?

Right…Placing such importance on these ridiculous “results” is done by the
“media” rather than actual Americans.  I grew up in New Hampshire and believe
me, Herman Cain’s tax plan will not win him many supporters.  It doesn’t matter
what any of them say or do because every one of them is chosen FOR us and
talked up or down based on ratings or the goals of those actually in power.

It is like telling all of the students in the school where I teach that smoking is now
allowed because three kids who smoke in the bathroom on the third floor held a
straw poll and decided everyone wanted a new pro-smoking policy.

Must be Karl Rove up to his dirty tricks again. It
will be fun to watch this Republican traveling circus
and freak show begin to devour itself. Saturday Night
Live opened it’s season with a parody of a Republican
primary debate; however, as funny as the skit was, it
was nowhere near as funny, nor as frightening, as
watching these psychopaths in action at an actual,
live debate. As mediocre a president as Obama has
been, to actually turn our country over to the
Republicans, especially with the distinct possibility
of one, or maybe two, Supreme Court Justice seats
opening up, would be a tragedy of Shakespearean
proportions.  I don’t want to hear the usual whining
from the far left about the two parties both being
corrupt, etc.. There is no comparison that justifies
doing nothing and allowing one of the Republican
candidates to win the general election not to mention
losing the Senate and not gaining back the House.
Unless you are an anarchist like Mr. Hedges, a man I
greatly admire for his genuine sincerity, you have to
be a complete nihilist, not to mention delusional, if
you don’t care deeply about which party should be in
charge of our government. I agree that both parties
are corrupt and I would love to see a viable third
party emerge, a true progressive, people’s party.
However, there is not enough time now, with just a
year away from the election, for such a party to be
created.

Pure propaganda.

Ron Paul has been cleaning these reptillians clocks in the straw polls and that information has purposefully been withheld by mainstream media.

How did we get here?  How did we get to a place where we have clown candidates that take the day?
I think one of the most important reasons is that we allowed the media to be controlled by a few private corporations - it quite simply that we no longer have a “free” press; we no longer have access to real information.  The general public lives in the same mental bubble as the media divas who filter and propagandize their freakish ideology that appeals to those avid for certitudes - a Big Daddy who knows best – and in America Big Daddy totes guns and takes no prisoners.

Yeah, but it looks like he’s got a problem.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
“Herman Cain’s two top campaign aides ran a
private Wisconsin-based corporation that helped the
GOP presidential candidate get his fledgling campaign
off the ground by originally footing the bill for
tens of thousands of dollars in expenses for such
items as iPads, chartered flights and travel to Iowa
and Las Vegas - something that might breach federal
tax and campaign law, according to sources and
documents.

“The number of questionable and possibly illegal
transactions conducted on behalf of Herman Cain is
staggering,” said Maistelman, a Democrat who has
represented politicians from both parties on campaign
issues.”

But that’s not surprising given his connections to the Koch Brothers and his campaign manager Mark Block, from Huffpo:
“Block has been accused of voter suppression and was banned from running Wisconsin political campaigns for three years to settle accusations he coordinated a judge’s re-election campaign with a special interest group.

Records show Block has faced foreclosure on his home, a tax warrant by the Internal Revenue Service and a lawsuit for an unpaid bill. He also acknowledges he was arrested twice for drunken driving.”
