Mark my words... We nominate this guy and we are finished...
Well, by my figures he’s about 1.5 million up on Ron Paul, but I don’t have the latest Paul numbers.
Right now, total fundraising, my best guess...
Romney (32.5 million + 7.5 million -> 40 million
Perry (17.0 million + 5.0 million -> 22 million
Paul (12.7 million + 3.0 million -> 15.7 million
Cain (5.1 million + 9.0 milliion -> 14.0 million
It’s likely he outraised everyone this quarter so far, including Romney. It was a 6:1 ratio, now down to 2.5:1 vs Romney.
True, It is wishful thinking he can get the cart across the line unless he shows tremedous political growth in a month or two.
If we get a Cain/Gingrich or Gingrich/Cain team, they will wipe the floor with obama
You're supposed to send $99.99 :) Or anything ending in 999. My first contribution was way back in may before the 999 thing, after the first debate. My second contribution ended in 9.99 as someone here on FR suggested.
Like others here, I have never contributed before. I believe Cain is a strong leader, just what this country needs.
If we don’t, the United States of America is finished........
Who do you suggest we nominate...Romney? Obama will crush him like a bug. Newt? Might have a shot. Perry?....Yeah, riiight.
:: AND he can debate. ::
True but he really needs to work on his preparation for the debates ahead, specifically foreign policy.
I could see him connecting with an Amb. Alan Keyes (when he is on his meds (-8 ) or even Newt (on the sly) to help him get ready for foreign policy questions; specifically hold his ground on American exceptionalism.
When he debates Obamugabe, he will get chewed up if he isn’t prepared.
Shove it Right up your large intestine, frisking arrogant, nasty, dishonest American MSM! YOU ARE GOING DOWN! WE THE PEOPLE ARE IN FULL REVOLT AGAINST YOUR IDIOTIC TYRANNY.
Welcome to FRee Republic n00b...
Is there a zotting in your future ???
RomneyBot much ???
“Romney (32.5 million + 7.5 million -> 40 million
Perry (17.0 million + 5.0 million -> 22 million
Paul (12.7 million + 3.0 million -> 15.7 million
Cain (5.1 million + 9.0 milliion -> 14.0 million”
Cain’s money will benefit form some of the Perry supporters throwing in the towel.
Also, if he wins Iowa, which he is up in the latest Quinipac polls in Iowa and Florida by 6-9%, his contributions will explode. That will get people off the fence and he’ll drain off of all of the conservatives still left in the raise.
Well he’s overcome:
1, low name recognition. He’s caught up with the other candidates.
2, low national polling. He’s caught and surpassed Romney.
3, low key state polling. He’s caught and surpassed Romney.
4, low overall state polling. He’s catching up to Romney. At worst he is 81 percent of Mitt’s strength. He has passed Perry.
5, total fundraising. He’s now likely fourth behind Paul.
6, low delegate and Republican endorsements.
7, low organization.
So still some stuff to work on, but he’s made giant leaps.
How so?
The HermanCain has officially reached a category 5 status. Go, Herman!
