Herman Cain is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama ISN'T!
Rush is right. An unabashedly and outspoken full tilt Conservative will capture the most votes in this country any time (given that he or she gets past the Leftmedia and takes it directly to the people, as Reagan did.
Herman Cain seems to be one of those.
From the article: And during all of this, Cain continued to be the happy warrior. He attacked only Obama and liberalism in the debates and in his other public statements and he remained undeterred by others with more money or higher poll numbers.
I have been a Cain supporter from the beginning of his candidacy, and mainly it is because of that one line. He is not negative, keeps Reagan’s 11th commandment and understands who we must defeat. I am very happy about his gaining popularity and hope it continues.

FYI!
Well done. Good work.
Good article. And what you say about maintaining 'second status' is true in business. Smart vendors don't disabuse their competitors in client discussion. It puts them in a bad light and causes clients to question their veracity. And this is what we're seeing with the public growing tired of all the in-fighting among candidates.
But I wanted to address the above statement. Beyond his personable image, his business experience, his way of getting to the nub of things, he's proved above the fray and this has set him apart. It addresses the 'second status' issue, but most important it has set him apart. I can't say it enough.
I've recommended Tony Blair's political memoir, "My Journey," before. It's an outstanding addition to the body of contemporary political insight because it's the rare candid discussion by the rare intellectually honest Liberal.
One of the comments Blair made that stuck me with for its brilliance is "mood always trumps politics."
I think that's the essence of what the author is saying here. And he's spot on.
Will mood propel Herman Cain to the White House? I don't know. But I do know that it is propelling him to have a critically needed influence on the race, the other candidates, and the nation.
