I don't think that is an unreasonable interpretation of your comments or a fair assessment.
Here is a somewhat related story for your consideration:

People itt have speculated how Cain would do with the good old boy republican racists in the South. Now I'm sure you want to have the argument that there are no southern racists, or pretend they still vote democrat like this was 30 years ago, but I'm not interested in banging my head against the wall right now on that.
That was my point. Don't necessarily count out the republican racist contingent when it comes to Cain.
Also providing one data point as a guy who was into Perry but is now fully behind Cain. We have very little representation from the political-but-ill-informed, plen-T-plaint people who truly think foxnews is fair and balanced crowd on this forum. So it might be interesting sometimes to know what they're thinking.
