GOP Presidential Runners:

I can't help but think that the MSM/DEM is doing its level best, along with the standard GOP Establishment, to immure in stone the "frontrunner" for Republicans in 2012: Mitt Romney. So many media outlets, great and small, are attempting to say "it's all over" but the crying. Romney's "the guy." Period.

So, when Chris Christie endorses Mitt Romney, is the GOP field essentially "done"? And, moreover, what does Chris Christie get out of it? A cabinet appointment? A VP spot?

When I think and consider the current GOP fleet, I keep coming back to Herman Cain.

He's not perfect; not by any means. No candidate can possibly be.

But I like him for a few salient reasons: he's actually had to meet a payroll. He's pulled himself individually up by his bootstraps. He's bought into and invested himself into a Capitalist paradigm. And he's not a politician. Many people have said, in his denigration: "he's NOT a politician!"

And I respond: "So dedicated politicians have done what for us?" Why is it that we hold politicians on another elevated level entirely?

Herman Cain now says: "I'm going after Romney!"

As well he should.

Harry Belafonte, the ancient and addled non-factored entertainer, says:

The Republican party, the tea party, all those forces to the extreme right have consistently tried to come up with representations for what they call black, what they call the real Negroes,” he said, naming former Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell as examples. “They’re heroes for some people. But for a lot of us, they’re not. Herman Cain is just the latest incarnation of what is totally false for the needs of our community and the needs of our nation. I think he’s a bad apple. And people should look at his hole card. He’s not what he says he is.”

Right.

Because Herman Cain's skin is black.

But he doesn't tow the Defeatist/Racist Card.

Right.
