I think Cain is a dark horse. I think a lot of people who do not think of him as top tier favor him as their 2nd choice
That’s raaaac...oh wait ...
:)
His speech today was excellent. Impassioned. Not at all telepromptery.
I wonder if Cain will get momentum. Honestly...I was surprised that my niece and nephew fell in love with the guy....
He’s “not Washington”....not “politician”...
I will be volunteering to help someone. It might wind up being him.
The thing with Cain also, is that he has been doing well in many instances but the media is ignoring him. So slowly but surely he is building up. He also has, for some time now, been way out ahead of all the others in what Gallup calls “positive intensity” (and also favorable rating). Which is to say, once people hear him and get to know him, they don’t just like him, they like him a lot and stick with him. He was only 200 votes behind Santorum in this straw poll. Bachmann has raised a lot of money and gotten a lot of media attention. The media, including Fox, have paid far more attention to Santorum and Pawlenty. Even at the debate Thursday (was that the worst debate ever or what?) he got very few questions. But we shall see. He’s a good man and used to a tough fight so I don’t see him giving up.
