I just figured out Herman Cain's 999 deal
You get 9 pizzas with 9 toppings all for $9.99. It's called the "If you ain't got pizza blame yourself" deal at Godfather's pizza.

1. Hehe, I made virtually this same joke this morning. The dude is so trying to get elected by relying
...on chain pizza marketing logic. This stuff writes itself.

15. I used to like it as a kid. Cain must have changed it.

I haven't been there since about 1987.

My brother used to work there and his checks came from "Aifam Inc." which is Mafia spelled backwards.

5. I said it was 666 upside down yesterday.. and this am I heard it going around.
Hmm... Wondering how many people read DU on the "professional left"...LOL. Seriously, this dude has pizza specials on the brain. It is a slogan, gimmick that sounds good to say about some deal. He has no actual facts behind 999.. just likes saying it. You are correct, its probably some special that's run on the 9th of every month for a 9.99....

6. "Crazy-eyes" Bachmann hinted at the upside down 999
(666) with an oh-so-cute 'the devil's in the details' quip. It was inevitable.

12. Ahh.. Maybe they are getting their facts and details about each other from
lefty blogs. We actually do a lot of research, have references, and present facts. You won't find details and facts on a righty blog. I wouldn't be surprised if we weren't providing the righties with most of their ammunition agains Barack Obama and other members of the Democratic Party in congress and in the Senate.. and even within state and local races. We've all seen where someone on our site has dug around some facts, made a sticking funny joke, or have come up with a "slogan" of some sort, only to find it later in the M$M, radio, or coming out of candidates mouths themselves a week or two later on.

8. Isn't "999" the British equivalent of "911" ...
... at least as far as phone numbers are concerned?

11. Nope, 999 is him speaking in German.
