Candidate Cain Cuddles Close to Cannabis...

Why is it that you don't hear a politician say these type of logical things until they are losing their grip on what ever sliver of power they thought they had?

As this headline screams "Herman Cain Says Medical Marijuana Regulation Should Be Left To The States" ... yeah I've heard that one before, however I am intrigued... tell me more.

Republican presidential candidate Hermain Cain on Tuesday said the regulation of medical marijuana dispensaries should be left to the states.

"If states want to legalize medical cannabis, I think that's a state's right," said Cain, according to NBC News' Andrew Rafferty. "Because one of my overriding approaches to looking at all of these issues -- most of them belong at the state, because when you do something federally ... you try to force one-size-fits-all." 
Cain's comments, which came at a campaign stop in Urbandale, Iowa, mark the first time that Cain has taken a position on the legalization of cannabis. At the 2011 Ames Straw Poll in August, Cain dodged questions regarding medical marijuana, simply walking away when pressed on the issue.
