1. I hope it remains this close throught the primary...

We may be able to do a little "Operation Chaos" of our own!! LOL!

I think Cain could win the nomination because all the Xtian NUTS will flock to him leaving Romney, "the Mormon" in a hole he can't dig out of. Maybe.

2. Good, let Cain dog Romney all the way to the convention.

3. This will go on for a little while. And then they'll turn the lights out on the Cain campaign.

6. Maybe Herman will wrap himself in the Confederate battle flag.

5. Good. The longer Herman is in the running, the worse for the Repub nominee.

And the better Obama looks in contrast. I also hope they keep up with the debates. It seems that each debate gets a little uglier than the last one and the only winner is Obama.

7. No way is an African American going to win the nomination.

Cain is a pet of the Republican right. If Cain was white, his numbers would be above 50% . Didn't trump get that high at one time?
