We would have to ask how much Rove/Romney are paying him to make these comments or what have they promised? The VP perhaps if Romney gets the nomination?
Since Herman Cain said he could never support Rick Perry if he got the Republican nomination, we will be most happy to oblige and say that not one of the people involved in this site would ever vote for Cain with his racist comments against the Governor. The Rockefeller, insider Republicans are pulling out all stops against Governor Perry. We consider this the latest in a long line of stories dropped by Rove and his people.
Just remember if Governor Perry wins the White House, then he will be the first Republican President since President Eisenhower not to have the Bush 41 team that swarmed the administration of Richard Nixon and have been part of every Republican Administration since. Did they tank Nixon? Wouldn't shock me even a little. Did they tank Ford against Carter? You betcha thinking that Bush 41 would get the nomination in 1980 but the conservative Ronald Reagan had something to say about that but then he was undermined on several things that Bush 41 cabal during his Administration.
Now we are back to that same group trying to take out Governor Perry that Cain has now signed on with. Shame on him for selling out.
Morning Examiner: Cain’s Bachmann momentBy Conn Carroll
On Saturday, The Washington Post published a seven page hit piece on Texas Gov. Rick Perry alleging that a rock on a ranch his father leased for hunting once had a racial slur carved into it. The Post does not allege that Perry named the ranch, or that he carved the slur into the rock. Only that the name of the ranch was well known to locals and that Perry did nothing about the rock. Perry spokesman communications director Ray Sullivan responded:
A number of claims made in the story are incorrect, inconsistent, and anonymous, including the implication that Rick Perry brought groups to the lease when the word on the rock was still visible. The one consistent fact in the story is that the word on a rock was painted over and obscured many years ago.
Upon reading the story, liberal exploiters of racial issues promised to profit from the article. The Rev. Al Sharpton told Politico he plans to be “all over” the story on his MSNBC show Monday: “At worst, he either thought it was something he could identify with and even have some bit of irony. At best, he’s insensitive. How can someone who would seek the highest office in the land be so insensitive to the implications of that name?”
Sharpton’s response is entirely foreseeable and expected. Unfortunately some Republican candidates have chosen to mimic Sharpton’s attacks. Asked about the story on Fox News Sunday, Herman Cain told Chris Wallace: “[There] isn’t a more vile, negative word than the N-word and for him to leave it there as long as he did before, I hear, that they finally painted over it, is just plain insensitive to a lot of black people in this country.”
Calling a fellow candidate racist in any primary is a serious charge that should not be made until one is sure of all the facts. By his own statement, it is obvious that Cain was not 100% sure about the story (hence the “I hear” qualifier). Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., collapsed in the polls after she echoed a liberal-trial-lawyer created attack on Perry over the vaccine Gardisal.
After a good stretch, this attack more backfire on Cain too.
