As long as Obama’s numbers are in the 40s and not over 50%, it doesn’t matter what his opponent’s number is. The undecideds (19% in this case) always break for the challenger. So if the election were held today, Cain would win 57%-43%.

Always remember that little factoid. Notice when Obama is put up against someone in a poll he rarely gets 50%.

Yup. The only way Obama can be re-elected is if stupid FReepers support a third party candidate. I hope no one is going to repeat the mistake made both times Clinton ran for President.

When Cain delivers his acceptance speech — Obama’s reputation as a brilliant orator will be flushed away forever.

I doubt Rasmussens numbers. If they were true the liberals wouldn’t be so scared of Cain.

Cain would win 57%-43%.

That presumes that 100% of registered voters vote and that often is not the case.

I agree, it’s a no brainer that Obama is weak. Still it becomes a choice between two candidates. And it’s a long time til the election, in political timescale.

I so wish we had a stronger field, I’m not overly confident about winning with any of them, Cain included; but i’ll support who ever goes up against the current regime.
