{Cain isn't about to win the GOP Primary}

But think of the fits Tyrone Brooks, John Lewis, and Cynthia McKinney would have, if Herman Cain wins.

{I'm throwing my support to Collins, as Isakson is too "moderate" for me}

On paper, Mac Collins is the best GOP candidate. He represents a semi-rural district just south of Atlanta. He has the image of a "down home, blue collar working man". This working class image is needed to appeal to voters in Middle GA. Carrying Middle GA is critical to winning statewide elections in GA. After all, the GOP giant slayers, Sonny Perdue and Saxby Chambliss, are from that region.

Isakson wouldn't be able to carry Middle GA. People, living south of Atlanta, would see him as a Country Club Republican who cares only for the rich.

You got to be careful of the Collins types. Plenty of them are ex-dems who switched only because they couldn't get elected. They still legislate like Dems. I don't know anythink about Collins; This may not apply to him.
