Herman Cain And Newt Gingrich's Texts From Last Night

Most of the time, when Herman Cain sends someone a text in the middle of the night, the rest of the world doesn't find out about it until Gloria Allred files a discovery motion. Fortunately for everyone, Cain went on Fox And Friends this morning to let everyone know about the message he sent to Newt Gingrich after last night's result in the Florida primary.

CAIN: My text message to Newt afterward was: "Congratulations. It is now a two-man race. Get some rest. Give me a call. Let's talk strategy." That was the message I sent to Newt Gingrich.

No doubt Gingrich was glad to hear from Cain, who offered the former House speaker his endorsement over the weekend, saying, “I am inspired...You are inspired.” (Later, Cain said, "Yes, I could be very comfortable with Mitt Romney," because he is new to this whole "endorsing" thing.)

At any rate, I realize that I am applying my own "HermanNewtic" to this text message, but it's impossible to not be excited by the prospect of the two handsiest men in 2012 politics going to Las Vegas to "talk strategy."

Some political ha.ck was trying to compare this GOP mess with Hil.lary and Barack's struggle for the nomination.
Ridiculous!
Newt Gingrich thinks he can force feed people into liking him and voting for him, but in a general election?
He cannot win!
His pu.trid past is simply to off.ensive to stomach!

Newt Gingrich is a meg.aloma.niac, and a whiner.

Cain is ruining his VP chance with Romney.  Now he is going to pick the lady from S. Carolina

[mother10]

I don't think he would have picked Herman...

[jasev01]

It would make sense.  Cain would pick up the tea party vote and the southern vote and take away from some of Romney's detractors on the right.  Plus they are both business men and "outsiders." Plus there is also the obvious...

Herman Cain Texts Newt Gingrich Last Night

Is the RomneyPoorPeople thread totally messed up to anyone else. Are the comments all out of order and posting randomly into the back pages to anyone other than me?

[EHenry]

05:53 PM on 02/01/2012

me too. However Romney (the man of the people, the people gullible enough to think a man with profits parked offshore with a Swiss account cares about them) has a loose thread so this may only be appropriate. Certainly he is a strong proponent of the Swindlers. To learn the whole truth. www.howwegotswindled.com

He also has a profit in Salt Lake City, Utah.
