Herman Cain Says Even He Would Be Doing Better than Romney

Former Republican presidential contender Herman Cain doesn't like what he sees in his party's nominee, Mitt Romney.

Cain told members of the media after the speech that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's recent “47 percent” comment was a “non-story” being blown out of proportion by the media. But Cain said he would have been doing better if he was the nominee, saying that he'd probably have a “substantial lead” on President Barack Obama at this point.

“The reason is quite simple: I have some depth to my ideas,” he said.

Sounds like Herman got word there'll be no plum spot for him in a Romney administration.   Remember when he told Barbara Walters he thought he should get Defense Secretary?
