Unquestionably, Mitt Romney is a centrist. I don't believe this country cannot elect someone far enough right to offset all the damage this current administration has wrought against the cause of Liberty Prosperity and Security for our Nation. Anyone still willing to believe in man made climate change when it has been proven to be based on bad science and used for a power grab is a statist. Romney is certainly smooth. America doesn't need any more smooth talkers or centrists. America needs a real leader who solves problems. Herman Cain has my vote. I am sick of these politicians.

I know you just want to make the headline interesting but you got it backwards; Mitt Romney IS the Tea Party's main rival. We don't want Mitt Romney muddying the water in this important Presidential Race, like he did in 2008.

One of the things about Herman Cain that appeals to me is that he isn't a politician, and therefore says things that aren't customary. He strikes me as very real.

Check out this humorous cartoon which uses Obama's own voice, spoken by him, to make the case that he's ill prepared to lead a capitalist society. The cartoon uses Obama's recent (and desperate?) raffle to have dinner with him as a plot device to put him in contact with a perfect foil, who eventually decides that Obama is so hopelessly clueless that she is going to vote for Herman Cain.

It's pretty funny and it also serves to highlight the differences in worldview (at least in terms of business and the economy) between somebody like Herman Cain and Mr. Obama. I found it illuminating.

The moment Sarah Palin announces her candidacy, the other contenders will collapse & flame out like the Hindenburg.

Come on, she's not running... She will play Kingmaker this year and name who she prefers the most. I'm betting it will be Herman Cain, who also happens to be the Tea Party favorite. Bachmann is a TP phony.

Romney is just another John McCain in this race and will screw it up. So if we keep adding more candidates he will win and that is the GOP Establishment's plan. We need to eliminate some of the lower tier or we will have 2008 all over again.

I agree. We should all coalesce around Herman now, as he is consistently conservative, and well within striking distance of Romney.

I would love that and it's a winning strategy. I doubt that will happen though. As much as I like Bachmann, I'm a die hard Cain supporter, and wouldn't coalesce behind her as long as Cain has a chance to win. I'm sure her supporters wouldn't get behind Cain as long as she's doing well too.

Mr. Romney reminds me of a GOP 'doll'. The perfect 'generic' Republican. Ms. Bachmann is a lovely lady.. but she will get the Palin/Hillary treatment (her teenagers will begin appearing in the National Enquirer). I am voting for Mr. Cain. I don't know how far he is going.. but I am going with him.
