Herman Cain's Numbers Game

Another Republican debate and another chance for Governor Rick Perry to attack Mitt Romney; although I don’t think it will boost his ratings in the polls as much as needed.

 

Also, it was another chance for everyone to attack Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan, which personally, I love to do. Cain's 9-9-9 plan makes me wanna call 9-1-1!  At first so many backed it because it was simple; problem is, even Cain says it won't do all that he promises.

 

In addition to actually raising taxes on the middle and lower income families in America, he now is expanding the 9-9-9 plan into other territories.  On CNN last week, Cain stated that there would be “empowerment zones” (like Detroit), areas where people have been hit hardest. Those "zones" might have a 3-3-3 plan.  Notice these empowerment zones are comprised mostly of African American families; votes he needs to take away from President Obama. So it is 9-9-9?  3-3-3? And for Democrats like me, will I get a 6-6-6 plan? :)
