Cain Squeaks Ahead of Obama in New General Election Poll Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/10/17/cain-squeaks-ahead-obama-in-new-general-election-poll/#ixzz1b5YiXm1l

Well back when he first announced, I thought Gov. Perry might take the lead in the GOP race and would be battling Obama next year……….And there still is plenty of time left, but in this recent poll, Herman Cain (Who has raised 5 million dollars to date) is shown to just barely lead Obama (Who’s raised 100 million to date) in the head to head race……….Cain is currently just behind Romeny in the GOP race, for the sake of argument, let’s say he’d win………How would Cain make out vs. Obama? Does the 9-9-9 plan have merit?

Or, as I speculated in the Perry thread, will Cain just end up as a solid (and likeable) VP candidate?

Cain would be an excellent president. America needs him.

I defiantly think he’s likeable and has a Reaganesque charm about him….I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop and the media to report he had a taste for the whores or relied on illegal aliens to prop up his pizza empire.

A 9% sales tax has no chance to make it through any kind of congress, therefore the 9-9-9 plan is a pipe dream, without merit.

And what's the 9 percent income tax, chopped liver?

It would take a while to work, but to have that kind of a tax code would help out the economy. Its bold and at least its an idea instead of bash obama.

I agree, someone that comes across as an optimist might do well next year……….

Sure, it's an idea. It just would never pass congress. The only reason to promote an idea that obviously could never be implemented is to score political points. Of course, that's what campaigning is all about. When it comes right down to it, 9-9-9 is just Cain's version of "hope and change", a slogan.

That being said, I certainly agree with the general principle of simplifying the tax code.

This is the same guy that was employed at the Federal Reserve. Polls only seem to matter when it's not Ron Paul on top.

cain is using pizza-like marketing to get to the simpletons.

pizza 2-2-2! er, tax 9-9-9!

cain is a crook. he worked for the federal reserve. he would be indebted to the special interest groups as much as obama is.

if americans want real options, then they have 4 choices:

a) obama/romney/perry/cain/etc.

ron paul

c) ralph nader

d) the little leprechaun guy with the hot wife (his name escapes me) - that's if he runs as an independent

Whoever we (as in Americans) want it to be. You get no decision in the matter. You know what they say about "opinions", right?

Why aren't you out celebrating with your "buds" over those released Palestinian murderers and terrorists?

in american politics? yes, i know what they (your rulers) say. they say we should manufacture their opinion and consent.

We don't have any rulers...that's why you're in Canada and I'm not. We don't do rulers, crowns, queens, kings, princes, or princesses. Except for Burger King.

Watching the debate tonight, it looks like Perry did much better, Cain got hammered, Romney was well Romney
