An "unthinkable" matchup just means the MSM has already picked Romney as the manchurian candidate to be demolished by Obama, with help from the MSM. I'd bet the MSM has already written their hit pieces on Romney. Having Cain in the race would ruin their calculus. They'd have to promote the idea that voting for the "wrong" black candidate is racist. I'n fact, it would not surprise me to see them pitch the idea that Cain himself is racist toward blacks.

It would be enjoyable just to watch a certain segment of the Republican population have to choose between voting for a black man and voting for a black man.

I still really wish Condi would get in on this and win the nomination. Watching some of the rural, white Republicans having to vote for a black woman would totally make my day. Or month. (That, and she's at least 10 times more intelligent than any of the current Republican candidates).

Yeah yeah yeah. That's all fine and good, but it begs the question whether Cain is viable or not. His 'platform' is a joke, he can't explain anything, and doesn't think he needs to know anything. He'll just surround himself with experts (I believe the teabaggers call them "czars" as they wail and tear at their clothes). I'm sorry, but you need to know things in order to balance out the advice of your experts and choose the best advice. Remember the cries from the right during the 2008 campaign that the presidency is not "on the job training"? I do.

None of which has to do with Cain's race. You're the race baiter here.

This probably wouldn't be hard, since he's already said Obama has never been a part of the black experience, which implies that there is only one authentic way to be black - and Obama isn't it.

Well I know for certain there is only one authentic way to be white. It involves polo shirts and khakis, but I don't want to say to much.

Or we could just leave out the color of their skin and look at them for their,platform, their plans for this country and the accomplishments they have made. Just a thought.

I love your stuff!

Cain/Obama would prove one way or the other just how racist the Right is... by showing us how many GOP voters just stayed home

I know a lot of you spend way too much time in the politics tab to not know that CDP is quoting Freepers. What gives?

I'd love this. Democrats obviously have no problem voting for a black candidate, provided said candidate's views and positions on issues are in line with theirs.

Republicans would go to the polls with the INTENTION of doing so, but their brains (or what passes for them) would freeze up in panic before they could pull the lever. The Teahadists in the Tealiban haven't worked this hard to bustle a black man out of the White House just to put another one right back in. This conflicts with the hatred, racism and bigotry they like to refer to as their "core values."

It's all about the mayonnaise.

I don't know. Their ability to suffer cognitive dissonance while they still walk and talk is amazing. I think you will see a lot of rhetoric about the president being a "servant of the people."

May God help us if this match-up goes down and Cain wins.

Given that Obama's re-election would be a certitude in such a matchup, I would be happy with it. Cain's ideas are simplistically juvenile and completely unworkable.

I also fail to see how instituting a 9% federal sales tax isn't "raising taxes" in violation of Lord Grover of House Norquist's edict

Miracle Whip and Wonderbread. The cornbread and watermelon of us real whites, not you wannabes.

Direction? You mean between crazy and not crazy? I gotta think about this one...

Damn. You found me out.

Brandyelf: My Republican officemate loves the 9-9-9 plan. I asked why, and his answer was that he paid a lot more than 9% now so his taxes would go down! I pointed out the 9% sales tax and he said we already pay the highest sales taxes in NY (close to 10%, state and local) so 9% is less!

I stopped arguing.

It's probably for the best that you stopped...

I believe that was a common complaint among black Hillary supporters. Particularly the old-school, Jesse Jackson civil rights era holdovers.

The danger in being part of the Black Elite is always that you will get called our for "Acting White." You have to be 'po' before you can be 'poor', as Cain says.

Barbigazi: Hillary SARAH PALIN totally had an authentic black experience.

When life gives you black, you make blackade.

Teabaggers think they have caught liberals in a trap by suggesting opposition to Herman Cain is based on race, but the problem for them is that Cain's stupid transcends race.

There are dumbasses in every race.

I would've voted for black Hillary.

Yes. Do we want change later, or do we want it delivered in under 30 minutes?
