Former pizza chain CEO mulling presidential run

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Herman Cain has never held public office, but Iowa Republicans are expressing strong interest in the Georgia businessman who is edging toward a run for the White House.

Cain, a former co-owner of the Godfather's Pizza chain, will join other potential Republican presidential candidates Monday at a forum in Des Moines.

Former Iowa Republican Party Chairman Richard Schwarm says Cain is creating a buzz among activists who vote in the state's caucuses, which lead off the presidential nominating process.

Schwarm says Cain is a longshot to win, but notes that there isn't a clear favorite less than a year out from the caucuses.

4. Republicans think that African-Americans are interchangeable....

Just like they thought women were when the republicans pulled Palin out of the woodwork thinking that democratic women would run out to vote for Palin once Hillary was no longer a candidate.

5. He's the favorite of my libertarian relative.

One of the Tea Party favorites.

My relative actually asked me, "Since you've said you're unhappy with Obama in many ways, would you consider voting for Henry Cain?"

:rofl:

I replied, "Only if I were certain he would do the EXACT OPPOSITE what he says he wants to."
