Another poll from CBS has good news though...Cain still in first, with Newt and Romney tied for second.
There are a lot of undecideds though, so lots of votes still at play.
But that CBS poll is also showing an alarming trend...Cain losing support from GOP women fast. He’s down 13 points with that demographic since the allegations broke. So his standing with women has been damaged. He’s holding steady with his GOP male support.
The allegations didnt sink Cain, but it has stopped his momentum. He’s not gaining anymore. And it might have spooked the undecided voters. It has also weakened Cain’s overall likability numbers.
Romney will not lose support. He’s always going to be in the mid-20s. He’s got a loyal bloc of supporters that arn’t going to budge for nothing. So the only way to beat Romney is to get another candidate into the 30s. Cain isnt there yet.
