Meet The Candidates: 2012 GOP Thread

Poll: Cain takes top position, Perry falls to fifth – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs (http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/10/25/poll-cain-takes-top-position-perry-falls-to-fifth/?hpt=hp_t2)

Perry fallen to 6%? I loving the fact his campaign has become such a joke.....and then there i Bachmann wow 2%

Wait how can a bunch of raciest throw their support for Cain? Funny how the left is starting to attack him calling him names like uncle tom, token black man, etc.. and they don't think there is anything wrong with attacking a conservative black man.

^ While not racist this is the nastist interview ive ever seen on a major network. I never liked lawrence odonnell before but now i have zero respect for him. Serisouly why would someone talk to someone like that in a interview? Could you imagine if anyone on Fox or any other network spoke to Obama like this?

If there are any Vietnam Vets on this board, do any of you take offense to lawrence's questing? Also worth noting is that lawrence is himself a draft advoider.

Lawrence was alright except for the Vietnam war line of questioning. What's truly nasty is the statements Cain has made about african americans, the unemployed, liberals, muslims and abortion.

You think these people will support him? It's not like she's interviewing people at a Klan rally.

What's the point of this video? It's from 2008 and these f-in idiots are too stupid to even know when to vote anyway. No mainstream conservative wants their support.

How about these folks at the CBC conference in DC, I'd say they've got some pretty negative things to say about Cain & Allen West.

Cain is smart and he got what he wanted by making those states about race, he got liberals to bite. I think this sums it up perfectly:

"Herman Cain is trying to get the GOP nomination," Smiley said. "When you're running for the nomination of a Republican Party…these are the kind of statements that you make that play to your base. It's politics."

Ill be interested to see how Cain does in the midwest and south with his rising poll numbers. Race will certainly play a part in GOP numbers in those regions. U can lock that up.

Am I mistaken or were all these "racist" stuff written/said about him after Herman Cain said "there is no racism in America," "he left the democrat plantation a long time ago," "African-Americans have been brainwashed into not being open minded," "the liberal establishment is scared a real black man will run against Obama," "[Obama's] never been a part of the black experience in America," "It is documented that his mother was white and his father was from Africa. If he wants to call himself black, fine. If he wants to call himself African-American, fine."

Do you think these statements he made are acceptable? That they will endear him to African Americans? Make no mistake, as far as I am concernerned it doesn't matter if he's black or white, it does matter that he is pure cunt that's preaching a message of division and hate. That's just me my opinion though, I am sure white conservatives think otherwise...probably because they haven't gone through the brainwashing process yet.
