I don’t think that Herman Cain lives in that district.
I don’t think so, either. But Herman Cain lives in suburban Atlanta, and his radio show is heard throughout the GA-07, so he would hardly qualify as a carpetbagger.
By the way, John Smoltz lives outside the district (Alpharetta in Fulton County), wants to pitch in the Majors this year, didn’t handle his 2007 divorce as one would have expected, and is the most overrated pitcher of the past 40 years. I have no reason to doubt that Smoltz is conservative, but I would be surprised if he were interested in running this year and if someone that currently lives outside the GA-07 should get the nomination it should be Herman Cain, not John Smoltz.
