Doesn’t look like Mr. Cain has lost much at all, given the torrent of negative reports and attention over the past 3 weeks. Remarkable. May indicate deep dissatisfaction with Romney and Gingrich.

Agreed, but Cain’s risk is that he has solid adherents who will overlook the bad press and see it for what it is. He won’t make it in the general if he can’t cut it now. His answers of late make him look amateurish and dangerously naive.
Reagan had well thought out positions that took him decades to refine. His gut could lead him because he’d studied so hard and thought so deeply. The myth that Reagan was a dolt actually benefited him against his enemies.

What surprises me is that where Cain has dropped, it appears Gingrich has picked up that support, rather than it going back to Perry. Some of the Cain supporters clearly came from Perry when he started his descent, but they don't seem interested in going back to Perry.
It's also amazing how consistent Romney is. Really does leave me to believe he doesn't have a chance. If he hasn't been able to budge his numbers by now, he's not going to be able to. Same folks that supported him in 2008 are not going to be able to get him anywhere in 2012.
