They put Cain up there to clear the way for Newt.

[Solomon]

His scandal is supposed to get people to back off of Newt's sordid affairs.

After all, they were consensual.

1. I don't think they are that smart.

I don't think any person's family wold be sacrificed for Newt.

2. Noot can't win either

He'll eventually crawl back under his rock after someone points out how he served his wife divorce papers when she was in a hospital bed.

3. They don't want to win..

... there is no payoff in being the president of the depression US of A.

4. How does that work if they only want Obama to serve one term? n/t

5. LOL, Newt won't be the nominee...

There was only one candidate who might have been able to beat Romney and that was Perry. Now that Perry has imploded, there is really no one left to prevent Mitt from winning the nomination. Despite his current denials, Rubio will be the VP choice. The GOP ticket will almost certainly be Romney/Rubio.

6. And they will lose. Romney is such a flake, he flip/flops like a fish out of water. n/t

[Imajika]

7. Probably so...

Romney is like a used car salesman, but he at least gives them a chance. Mitt will at least have the good sense to move towards the middle for the general election. Cain, Newt, Bachmann, etc, etc, are all complete goofballs that would lose in landslides. Unless the baggers go suicidal, they really have no other choice than to go with Romney.

8. Agree, and as you stated Newt has so many skeletons in his closet, I can't

even get into it anymore.

9. and it proves they aren't racists!

bwahahhaahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i bet armey and the koch brothers gave their teabagger minions instructions to go gah-gah over cain (knowing he would never be selected at the goober primary circuit party), so they could then "crow" about how NOT RACIST they are. (see, i can use code, too!)

10. The Republicans have a 100-year plan.
