Memo to al Qaeda From Herman Cain: Kidnap an American and I’ll Set the Guys at Gitmo Free

Herman Cain’s lack of political savvy is astonishing:
BLITZER: Could you imagine if you were president…and there were one American soldier who had been held for years and the demand was al Qaeda or some other terrorist group, “You got to free everyone at Guantanamo Bay” – several hundred prisoners at Guantanamo. Could you see yourself as president authorizing that kind of transfer?
CAIN: I could see myself authorizing that kind of transfer but what I would do is I would make sure that I got all of the information. I got all of the input, considered all of the options. And then, the president has to be the president and make a judgment call. I can make that call if I had to.
So, as of today, Herman Cain is persona non grata in the Republican party, right? I mean, imagine if a Democratic presidential candidate said he’d negotiate with terrorist, close Gitmo and send captured al Qaeda terrorists out into the world. His or her candidacy would be o.v.e.r. on the spot.
