Put-up or shut-up time--Can Cain Walk Away with it?
Gwinett Dail Post ^ | 25 April 04 | Bill Shipp

Posted on 04/25/2004 7:48:24 AM PDT by Amish

Can a rich black owner of a chain of pizza parlors influence the outcome of the GOP primary for the U.S. Senate? The pizza guy is Republican senatorial candidate Herman Cain. The two mainstream candidates are U.S. Reps. Johnny Isakson and Mac Collins. Conventional wisdom holds that either Isakson or Collins will win the nomination and ultimately the seat now held by the Bush administration’s pet Democrat, Zell Miller. Don’t bet on it. The fight between Isakson and Collins is expected to turn into a mudslinging match. Even before qualifying starts, Collins already is warning Georgia voters against choosing a “moderate” (meaning Isakson) in such perilous times. Cain could become the “neither of the above” candidate and walk away as the nominee.

Yes Shipp is a big liberal...

That's very apparent from his newsletter, but it doesn't take a way from his analysis that Cain could well make a run up the middle to victory. I happen to agree with that view.

Less than three months to the primary.. Go Herman.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
