Herman Cain: I'll make an 'unconventional endorsement'

MSNBC Video

Needless to say, I could care less what Herman Cain has to say and whom he will support for the presidency. But I can't help but be very curious as to whom he would support and whom would qualify as "unconventional"....except Ron Paul.

Personally, I find a Cain endorsement of RP highly unlikely. Could it be that he may endorse Obama? I find that almost impossible but you never know in the crazy world of national politics.

Also, do you think it would be beneficial to RP from such an endorsement I see two entirely different types of voters supporting RP and Cain. This will be interesting to say the least and it looks as though we will find out on Thursday.

ETA: Perhaps he will endorse a Romney/Santorum ticket, but not the individual candidate as he states the endorsement will be unconventional and not the candidate themselves.

Yes, and he stressed it several times, "unconventional"... as if to warn us that it was somebody pretty far out... Could be Paul or even Huntsman. They would both be considered somewhat unconventional, I think.

I wouldn't be begging for Herman Cain's endorsement, anyway.

Obama...in exchange for a cushy cabinet position....

Who knows he might actually endorse RP, I felt Cain had a lot of respect for him during the debates because he didn't viciously attack him like perry and romney and he did agree with some of the things he has said.... Either way though I could care less who he endorses and I don't think I want people who rode the cain train to start being RP supporters anyhow.....

The later part of the video talks about Cain's desire to be Sec. of Defense.

If he becomes Sec. of Defense then we will really need some help!

He means that he's going to endorse Romney...

*licks lips like Cain does when he's about to say it*

NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY NINE more times than everyone else.

Sorry. Had to do it.

Why not? The more the merrier. I don't see Cain endorsing Ron Paul anyway, but Paul did get quite a bit of support from people on Cain's message board after he bowed out of the race.

After he takes out all the Women who sunk his election chances....

In no way will he endorse Ron Paul unless he has changed his mind on a few things. Remember Cain in his Israel is our friend speech? Remember you mess with Israel then you mess with America. RP wants to cut Israel off.

If he endorses Paul, does that suddenly make Paul a conspirator with adulterers?

Maybe the elite have understood that to kill Ron Paul's movement the only thing they have to do is start endorsing him...

Cain is gonna back RP...

Boy, that cain train sure derailed in a hurry. Maybe he should go back to making pizzas. Thats something id support.

This will be very interesting as I liked Cain's stuff about the economy.

Unconventional could be Ron Paul even though he ruled out paul and perry earlier. he could have changed his mind after he saw where his fans went.

Unconventional could also mean Jon Huntsman. Because he is not part of the not romney crowd and it would be a very good position especially if he wins New Hampshire. and they are both great business men. Huntsman needs stronger conservative people backing him

Or it could be someone not running like Sarah Palin or Trump.

Cain has essentially, openly said Ron would be the LAST person he could support as President.

I don't think it will be Ron.


Don't think it will be Romney since he is the 'typical choice' if Cain says unconventional, it wouldn't be Romney and if it were Romney, he would've done the endorsement already.

If he's going to do it right before SC, it will probably be Perry...maybe Santorum.


I guess time will tell.

The comment he made about his endorsment specifficly will be unconventional, not the candidates themselves, really has me thinking. Could be really make that big of a leap to support Paul, or just endorse one of the goons?

Sellouts and corrupt people (ie typical politicians and big-shots) usually pick someone or something that would somehow be of BENEFIT either in their positions in life, or their wallet.

So who cares who this degenerate picks, really. It doesnt mean a thing.

I think he gonna endorse Obama...giving some kind of kiss of death to the Republican Party because what they did to his reputation.

That's possible, but I was of the impression that Cain was trying to ride the FoxNews train like Huckabee did. If he endorses Obama you can kiss that goodbye.

For unconventional, I'd go for an endorsement of a Trump independent run. That would be entertaining until Trump fired him and fed him to the fruit bat on his head.

For probable, I'd go for an endorsement of Gingrich. That would be entertaining too. Sort of a Womanizer bonding support group.

firstly that second MSNBC lady wears way too much makeup
Which can be dangerous with Cain

He will not be endoring Romney
he's going to endorse Santorum
