Cain's popularity is surging.

Yeah, it is temporarily. Just like it was for Cain back in May. And then Trump. And then Bachmann. And then Perry. Then back to Cain. Then it will be Christie next. Because conservatives apparently get led around by the media to a new 'flavor of the week'.

as far as fund raising is concerned

Yep. Cain raised one whole million in ten days in the final ten days of September. That's 1/10th of what Romney raised in 24 hours once this year. Ron Paul has had three or four different days in 2011 where he raised over a million in 24 hours. A million in ten days...what a surge!

I understand the frustration you must be feeling in your attempt to sell a guy with a lot of liberal positions to a forum full of conservatives. But I am not sure that attacking conservatives with sarcasm is helpful to your goal of winning us over. Was it helpful when Gov. Perry said that conservatives who disagreed with his "dream plan" for illegal aliens had no heart? It was an arrogant thing to say just as many of your posts here have been.

I am watching Herman Cain on Hannity as I type. This is prime time coverage... it might as well be an infomercial. Campaign money isn't everything. Gov. Perry could spend a million dollars from his huge campaign war chest and it probably wouldn't be as helpful as this one episode is. Cain is simply a terrific speaker who connects with his audience. He just kicked his “book tour” off on the Hanity show.
