Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain says that he was shocked when God told him to run for president.

"Before President Obama took office, I never even conceived or thought of running for president," Cain told a group of Young Republicans in South Carolina Saturday. "It was only after he took office and I saw his arrogant disregard for the American people that I know that I had to do what I could do. ... That when I prayed and prayed and prayed. I'm a man of faith. I had to do a lot of praying for this one."

"And when I finally realized that it was God saying that this is what I needed to do, I was like Moses: 'You've got the wrong man, Lord. Are you sure?'"

Seems like to me God's been lying to a bunch of them!

Here we go again.... another vacuous luminary playing the god card. I guess for people like Cain, prayer trumps rational thought every time. And, I'm being polite here, assuming that Cain might be capable of thinking rationally about anything. Except, maybe, how to sell pizza.

When you mix religion and politics you get scary people doing terrible scary things and using religion to justify their actions in their own minds.

Boring orator. The Righties complain that Obama sounds like a preacher. This guy sounds like the church's accountant. Could he be any more boring?

After Bush and his last days ideas, I'll pass on Cain.

OK, let's say there's a God, and let's say that he told Cain to run. What if God has a sense of humor? What if Cain's candidacy is just a joke God is playing on the Republican Party? If God told Cain to run, maybe it was so Obama would win a second term.
