Herman Cain seemed to enjoy his turn auditioning for the role of Mitt Romney’s chief foil Tuesday night. Luxuriating at the center of the table thanks to surging poll numbers, he basked in the attention of his rivals as every exchange seemed to come back to his signature 9-9-9 tax plan. It’s a good thing Cain relished his moment in the spotlight, because it’s almost certainly downhill from here.
The pizza magnate’s ascension has been the product of his well-honed outsider’s shtick, his stirring personal story and his charisma. It’s a package that resonates with Tea Party activists who are searching for a Romney alternative. “Black walnut isn’t a flavor of the week,” he declared. But the attributes that lend power to his candidacy–including his unwillingness to play by, or even pay attention to, Washington’s rules–will almost certainly derail his chances of winning the GOP nomination.

Good, I'm right again.
well if time magazine says its true it must be.
the truth is that they must be afraid of him therefore they must destroy him
we must not let the msm pick our candidate
lol his own words sink him
At least he doesn't appear to be an idiot like Rick Perry...
NO one man is going to have the answer to every single problem. The great God of the republicans, Ronald Reagan, had his faults and was not correct on every issue. But if you are content to have another bribe taking, sleazeball, special interest beholden president, then go ahead and vote for any one of the candidates the media keeps trying to shove down our throats. Try LISTENING to the candidates and their positions and accept the fact that they can't be right all the time. Then question their motives. Are they interested in our NATION, or their own rise to power and glory?
As if the Obama presidency hasn't been a train wreck? And God forbid a black man leave the liberal Democrat plantation and actually think for himself. Coming from a Time magazine writer I am not surprised. No one of these candidates is perfect but any of them would be better than Obama. My mind is still open to change before the primary, but as of now my vote would be for Cain.

Even after the latest disclosure about this pizza king?
Nobody can ever be as bad as Barack Insane Osamo, our current so called "leader" who has led us down the path of destruction.
