As much as I love Cain, I can't help but get the feeling that he will be Georgias "Toomey."

If by that you mean backstabbed by the national party in a primary, I fear that too.

Cain has momentum, he has made the necessary connections with the counties. He's labored tirelessly 6 and sometimes 7 days a week.

The key will be keeping his coalition motivated in the end to go vote. I don't think this will be a problem since his supporters are activists.

Key will be North and South Georgia. Both he seems to be doing well in. In the Southeast St. Simon's area, he is out pacing both of his competitors in fund raising. This area is squarely Cain's. They like his spirit and intellect. Middle Georgia was supposed to be Collins territory but that fizzled by December. Cain is being supported by most of the county chairmen in Middle Georgia. I am a Vice Chairman in Bibb. Isakson has been here once.

The Metro area I would have to give to Isakson. If you look at the money Isakson has scooped it all up. I do not believe the black community is going to come out and support him.

What needs to be done in the next two months is some guerilla marketing (real grassroots labor) 30 days out he has got to unleash more ads.

Should Cain win, it will change the dynamics of the Georgia Republican Party. I don't know if some in our leadership are ready to give up their power, but it is time. Cain has been effective in expanding the base without compromising our conservative values.
