    I wonder what cult he blongs to. Rick Perry probably had people who can tell us that. Seems Mr. Cain's prior writings/radio talks are a rather fertile ground for oppo research.

    Liberals were mad because Jesus' central plank wasn't "tax the rich."

    How does he reconcile Jesus's anti-bank agenda? Seems like Jesus would be on board with Occupy Wall Street.

    Herman Cain is basically conservative p*rn. Like Goldwater or the Clinton impeachment, he'll obviously lose; but he'll probably help define conservatism for an entire generation. You know, like p*rn.

    Jesus was mad at the topless chick and her babies? I like the bloggers in the lower right hand corner, too.

    Obviously he's not mad at bankers, he's mad at the Arab Muslims. Just look at how these guys are dressed.

    Let's have Christ our President
    Let us have him for our king
    Cast your vote for the Carpenter
    That you call the Nazarene

    The only way we can ever beat
    These crooked politician men
    Is to run the money changers out of the temple
    Put the Carpenter in

    O It's Jesus Christ our President
    God above our king
    With a job and a pension for young and old
    We will make hallelujah ring

    Every year we waste enough
    To feed the ones who starve
    We build our civilization up
    And we shoot it down with wars

    But with the Carpenter on the seat
    Way up in the Capital town
    The USA would be on the way
    Prosperity Bound!

    -- Woody Guthrie

    Why would you prefer a bad ass mofo to a criminally violent male prostitute? Just because he included Titian, Raphael, and Michelangelo with Christ?

    View of Toledo owns Christ Driving the Money Changers..., though.

    The state killed the unlicensed Jewish preachers whom Anointed Savior was meant to symbolize; but ironically enough at a time when it most closely resembled private industry, when wars, weddings and coronations served the same purpose that proxy votes do today.

    Poor Herman Cain. He just can't say anything without saying something crazy.

    Mitt Romney is surrounded by crazy people. And though there are a lot of crazy people in the Republican electorate, I think there are still more sane ones. So the weakest front-runner since McCain or Kerry or Dole, will probably win the nomination as did McCain, Kerry and Dole. And the lack of passion for Romney might mean that Obama will squeak by -- an amazing thing, if it happens, for an incumbent presiding over such a bad economy.

    I am amazed every day that, with such a vulnerable incumbent, the GOP field is so poor and that the game is locked. Who let that happen? I'd like to send him or her a thank you card.

    Are we sure it's locked? The most shocking thing to me on election night was watching Virginia, North Carolina and Florida go blue; are we sure that will happen this time if they pick a level-headed guy with business and governing experience? Is he gonna hold Ohio and Indiana?

    I meant that the GOP nomination race is locked, as in no one else can get in. I wasn't making a prediction about the race. The last time I did, I predicted Perry in a walk. Which is just further evidence that predicting anything this early is a fool's errand.

    I think it's been very predictable from the beginning Romney would take the GOP nomination. He won't be the strongest opposition candidate ever, but don't underestimate his chances against Obama (who might be weaker than GWB was in 2004). I guarantee you Romney won't run a totally pathetic campaign next year like Kerry did. It will be a very negative race with lots of mudslinging by both sides. In that kind of presidential campaign, the GOP's skills blow away the Dems.
