Herman Cain or Ron Paul

So, the Larry has caused me to research Ron Paul's vision and his stance on the issues.
I'll agree with you Larry, out of the hopefulls right now, Paul is certainly a good choice.
I will however to continue to support Herman Cain as my first choice.

Should Herman Cain not make the cut, and should Ron Paul be the leader when all the dust settles, I will have no problem (ok, there are a few issues) placing my support behind Ron Paul.

As far as the current scandal with Cain in reference to sexual harassment, I think the left shot their wad a bit too early on this one, it has time to become a non issue before elections, and should they continue with this as their only attack, it will only serve to make Cain stronger. It will indicate that other than that, they cant find anything. Their best bet would be to let it go now then bring it back up later.

Lets hope that the lefts dirt digging fails them in regards to Paul. although, they know if they make stuff up close enough to the actual election, there will not be time to disprove it, so expect that.

What we can expect from the left should Ron Paul be the candidate is
He is too old, to conservative, he will be branded a racist.
You can also expect the same mental health questions that came up when Ross Perot ran for election.

Still not happy with cutting federal funding for things and putting them on the states. Sure, we have less of a burden at the fed level, but we do end up with a greater burden on our state tax, if we win or lose in that depends on how much the state depends on federal funds right now that will be cut.

Less liberal states win, States like California and Maryland will lose.

I really hope Romney doesn't get the nomination. We've had to many leaders who don't have their own compass and use public opinion polls to guide them.

Are you trying to say that the lefties, kind, gentle folk with flowers in their hair that they are, are *gasp* bigots!?
