Values Voters Go Wild for Herman Cain

7:48 PM, Oct 7, 2011 • By JOHN MCCORMACK

It was hard to keep track of how many times Herman Cain brought the crowd at the Values Voters Summit to their feet during his speech Friday afternoon. You really have to watch Cain's speech to appreciate his success. With a good sense of humor, the cadence and inspirational tone of a preacher, and a rich and booming baritone voice, Cain's charisma is what truly separates him from the rest of the Republican field.

Of course, it's Cain's charisma combined with rock-ribbed conservatism that appeals to these Republican voters. He told the values voters there's some "garbage" spread about him that he wanted to clear up. "I believe in life from conception, period. No exceptions," said Cain, as the crowd rose to their feet. "I believe that marriage is between one man and one woman."

"You can pursue liberty all you want, as long as you don't tread on someone else's life, and that includes the life of the unborn," he added. Cain has been criticized by groups such as the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List and the National Organization for Marriage for not signing their respective pledges, but the lines definitely seemed to win over the crowd.

The values voters enthusiastically cheered Cain's comments on non-social issues, too. "America wants to raise some Cain, not more money!" Cain said. He took aim at the 'Occupy Wall Street' protesters. "Wall Street didn't write these failed economic policies, the White House did. Why don't you move the demonstrations to the White House?" he said. "That's why you don't have a job! That's why you don't have a business! Move it to the White House!"

Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make, period ... ... Wish more people would realize this.

Kind of scary that a guy that wants to pass a 9% national sales tax is gaining so much support. Imagine the lines at the bridge if everyone coming back from Mexico had to pay 9% tax on what they were bringing back.

They would probably purchase what they could afford. If the rest went into effect 9% sales tax wouldn't be so bad.

I don't think anyone has to sweat it as taxes are big business they way they are.Tough to pry the grasping fingers of the government off the money and they way they collect it now

Cain's 9-9-9 plan is a superb improvement over the iRS behemoth.

Go Cain,
