***"Wouldn't that be a very strong message by the state of Georgia, to have a black Democrat running against a black Republican?" Cain wondered. "It would set up a very interesting dynamic, but I still think we would be able to win."***

This is reason enough to nominate Herman Cain. A Herman Cain Senate candidacy could trigger a much needed honest debate about race relations in America.

Andrew Young just announced that he will not run. The democrats have noone in the race (yet?) with significant name recognition. Speculation centers around former senator Sam Nunn's daughter, labor commissioner Mike Thurmond, or perhaps recently defeated Max Cleland.

Mr. Cain has competiton on the republican side from current congressmen Johnny Isakson and Mac Collins. Isakson has a big lead in money, but most Georgia republicans don't consider him conservative. He was the last member of Georgia's republican congressional delegation to sign onto the FairTax bill.

Herman Cain will have to run a strong campaign to overtake these two republicans, both of whom have higher name recognition, but he is extremely impressive as a speaker. Much of his current work is motivational speaking. I predict he will be a big winner in any debates held.
