This is big news in that it is confirming many other polls showing Cain leading in key states like Iowa, SCarolina, Floria (where he either leads or is tied), Nebraska...and a strong 2nd showing in NHampshire.
“Two things are striking in the new Poll:
1) Cain continues to surge, now showing separation from Romney
2) The 2nd Tier candidates have significant combined conservative support of 27% support, which is support that will likely go to Cain, when those candidates drop out of their campaigns.
This poll supports recent polling that have shown Cain increasing leads nationally and in key states. Here.
So, Cain is setting in strong position and his consistent intensity levels indicate he my be even stronger than he appears. The biggest caveat is the lack of an organization that will get the Caucus vote out in Iowa. Cain needs to expand his staff to meet the needs of his national popularity and he needs to capitalize on Iowa, because a win there will bring in more financial contributions and begin sifting off supporters of the 2nd tier candidates.

This is a very good point.
Plus, The TEA Party will go into hyper-drive supporting
Cain. There would not be many held noses in the voting
booths November 6 (other than RINOs).
Still early for anyone to pull out of their campaigns.
Yes but that 1% that Huntsman commands will go to Romney.
