politics and politicians Title: Cain talks pizza and politics, takes shots at GOP foes Pizza and politics are two things near and dear to Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain -- affirming that manly men love lots of meat toppings on their pies. "The more toppings a man has on his pizza, I believe the more manly he is because the more manly man is not afraid of abundance," Cain told the December issue of GQ Magazine. Cain also took a shot at those who love veggies on their pizza, saying, "A manly man don't want it piled high with vegetables! He would call that a sissy pizza." The former boss of Godfather Pizza-turned-GOP presidential hopeful sat down in October with three GQ writers to discuss his politics and pizza. The interview, which took place at Seventh Hill in Washington, DC, was conducted before allegations surfaced that Cain had sexually harassed four women in the past. Of course, Cain took breaks from munching on his pizza to also take shots at his GOP primary foes -- giving them flavor-themed nicknames as if he were running an ice cream shop. "If Mitt Romney was an ice cream flavor, what flavor would he be?" one GQ writer asked. "Oh, just plain vanilla," Cain replied. Are you guys really going to print this? I have learned that with my new status in the polls, any- and everything that I say will show up somewhere. Do you guys really want to do this ice cream analogy?" Texas Gov. Rick Perry? "Rick Perry: Rocky road," Cain said. Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann? "Michele Bachmann ... I'm not going to say it. I'm not going to say it. ... Tutti-frutti. I know I'm going to get in trouble!" Cain said he could live with any of his GOP contenders in the White House -- with the exception of Texas Rep. Ron Paul. "Ron Paul. I would be scared if he was president. ... I am puzzled by what he stands for. Puzzled by some of his extreme statements, like "End the Fed!" "End everything!" Cain said. Cain also said Bachmann did not have the "gravitas" for the job -- adding that it wasn't because she was a woman. "I thought Margaret Thatcher was a great leader," Cain said in defending his opinion. "So that has nothing to do with her gender. I just don't see that in Bachmann." Read more: www.nypost.com/p/news/nat...pSbgg1XLJSN#ixzz1dhh5exmG
