Governor Romney was the last Republican Presidential Candidate that I voted for. I was going to go with the "Huckster" because he was a FairTax.org guy, but in the booth, I wavered, due to the economic outlook of the time, and went with the guy who rescued the Olympics.

Governor Romney is the guy that best pleases the intelligent and moderate wing of the Republican Party, just as McCain did when I voted for him. The Powell, Brooks, Noonan and Buckley Jr. crowd like the fact that he distances them from "those" Republicans, the radicals, the Christians, the Paulistas, and the Racist Evangelicals (like President George W. Bush who selected Colin Powell to be his Secretary of State and was then subsequently rewarded by Powell's silence as Scooter Libby was hung out to dry for Dick Armitage's leak). He's from the Democratic midwest and he governed a Democrat northeast state so he is comfortable on both sides of the aisle, a man who will get along with and compromise (the Republicans) with his fellow Americans in the Democratic Party. He will start in the center and move to the Left. He will certainly not move to the right, on that, we can trust.

He looks Presidential. He is a great debater! He's smart, clean, articulate and he gives a great speech. He's no stranger to the State control of Health Care, he leans Green, and Europe, possibly the world, will love his Internationalist Economic and Diplomacy positions (and haven't we heard all that before as we vested all our hope in some change...).

He's the Centrists Centrist! The man who can unite both parties and get us past religion. When other candidates surge and fail, his numbers remain steady and unwavering. Once nominated and compared to President Barack Hussein Obama, he will be very similar, very soothing, very non-threatening and give the Powell, Brooks, Noonan and Buckley Jr. crowd not one reason to not vote for President Obama and confirm their alliance to healing racial relations on the part of the Republican Party and Governor Romney will smile and gracefully and graciously concede and praise the President for a race well run and a contest well-played and then he will go back to being the toast of the Elitist Statist crowd that just loved Senator McCain until it came time to actually vote for him and against the African-American.

Therefore, for the sake of the Republic, I hope that as the lesser Republican candidates drop out, their anybody but McRomney voters gravitate to Herman Cain who will start on the right and gladly invite any centrist, moderate Democrats to come across the aisle and compromise with him somewhere in the center. A man who has actually mopped and will not be afraid to instruct the ivy-league, ivory tower Academics who control the thinking of President Obama on how to hold the mop and how to actually mop, something they have experienced not once in their protected, pampered Liberal lives, and then maybe, after some actual blood, sweat, toil and tears, he will put them into the backseat and drive them out of the Left ditch and take them out for some pizza and gelato...

He's a damn blue-coat.



There's holding the mop to mop, and then there's holding it to dance with.
 
Romney isnt conservative.

Folks need to do their homework and understand what conservative is.
 
Romney is smarter than Obama, has a real economic background.

His wife is has not lived her life on our taxes

As proof: did Romney go to Obama for advice on universal health coverage? Or was it the other way around?
 
Seriously though, the Tea Baggers, the Guns-n-Gawd crowd and the warheads need to get together and form a viable third party.
Us against the New Communist Party, formed by offshoots of the Democrat Party. It's on!

Up in the Beltway, where Johnny lives, he's a fire-breathing Tea Partier and the Tea Partiers are The Hitler Youth...

It's really illuminating of the Great divide in America.

Libertarianism is more Radical than actual Communism to elite Republicans.

Hold on there... am I a tea partier or an elite Republican:confused:

Just to get your dander up, I'll say it: I'm a Social Liberal/Fiscal Conservative. I don't care what people do, as long as I don't have to pay for it. I want the government (and everyone else) to leave me alone.
 
For my good buddy Johnny in the absence of my former BFF Firespin...

If anyone needed more evidence that the stars seem aligned for Herman Cain's campaign for presidency, then I submit the logically challenged Wall Street protestors. The intellectual bankruptcy and childish behavior of the protesters provide a jaw-dropping contrast to Cain, whose "only in America" success story gives breath to his pro-liberty and pro-America message, not to mention his Tea Party-type supporters.

This stark juxtaposition gives Cain a boost simply by its existence. The very nature of the gatherings -- the "Occupy" mobs versus the Tea Party rallies -- give us a glimpse into our collective choice of futures.

Imagine: if our nation was filled with folks like the protesters, there would be no civil society, no economy, and no opportunity -- except for the chance of a power-grab by totalitarians. Trash, feces, and bitterness would dominate the landscape. Property would be something that you take from others, and government bureaucrats would be the main purveyors of that theft.

The mob's understanding of reality is so stunted that the iPhones and blankets and food and even the condoms they depend on are products of a free-market capitalist system they want to demolish. These are intellectual children -- and a society must have intellectual adults, or it will fail.

On the other hand, if our nation was filled with Tea Party followers, the country would be clean, prosperous, and polite. There would be significant emphasis on leaving the country better for the next generation. Opportunity would be there for those who would but pursue it. Property would be something you have the chance to earn and keep. Government would be limited and certainly not central to our lives -- indeed, government would protect us from the likes of the mobs. From what I can tell, no one would mistake a police car for a port-a-potty.

As it stands now -- politically speaking -- our country is at a tipping point, with the forces aligned with the protesters on one end of the spectrum and those simpatico with the vision of the Tea Party on the other. As stated by Mark Levin earlier this week, if "the libs are not defeated," then this (the protests) is what America at large will become in ten years. Ten years may be a generous assessment.

So why does this play into Herman Cain's hands in particular?

Herman Cain is a joke. If we were electing a Dictator instead of a President, then maybe I'd take him seriously. But his one and only economic position, 9-9-9, isn't something a President can do.

But, just look at any State of the Union speech and compare what was promised with what was delivered. Americans are stupid and will vote for a promise, no matter how realistic it is.
