I can't say our conversation had anything to do with the way his campaign has gone, and I don't know that I'd ever ask for anything from it even if it did. I'm just glad he's gong the route he has.

I hope Mr. Cain remembers you when he makes it to the White House. (I hope some politician some day values sage blogger advice over dubious consultant advice.)Chris Matthews, back in 2001, offered a simple but profound test for picking winners in presidential races: "Look for the candidate you picture with the sun on his face." Think Roosevelt over Hoover, Truman over Dewey, Ike over Adlai, Kennedy over Nixon, Carter over Ford, Reagan over Carter and Mondale. Your advice to Cain taps into that same sentiment. The only time that rule may have failed was in 1968, which was a very close election with a strong third-party candidate. That’s brilliant, Jimmie.
