Cain and Romney are also buddies. Cain endorsed Romney last time around and Romney finds various ways to praise Cain, even going so far as telling a NH crowd the other day that they could feel comfortable voting for him OR Cain.

This becomes problematic for Perry b/c Cain’s surge has moved him into No. 2 on many polls, including in critical Florida, which has its primary Jan. 31.

Cain is in a position to play kingmaker, throwing his support to Romney at a critical juncture and putting him over the top, especially if the lower level right-wingers (Bachmann, Santorum) continue to hang around and leech out some of Perry’s Tea Party support.

I like Cain a lot.

But. This is a troubling problem, why does this “Tea Party” guy like Romney the Rino so much?

DREAM ON!! Cain is not going to be 'king maker' for ANYBODY. He's going for the Presidency & Lord willing - with the help of the Tea Party & the Conservatives on his Cain Train - he's going to make it!!!
