Talk about understatement! Isakson made himself into Mr. Abortion Rights. His infamous ad (broadcast practically non-stop as the election neared) had him sitting between his wife and his daughter blabbing about how he trusted women to make the right "choice." NARAL probably scripted it. As a conservative, the guy is a fraud.
Cain ping!

Go Herman Go! Pray For Herman Cain!
Isakson is no conservative, and it is the job of conservatives throughout Georgia and around the nation to let Republican primary voters know that. I don't think Isakson can get 50%+1 in the first round, and he's going to have a tough time in the run-off against either Collins or Cain, especially against Cain. The run-off system will work to the advantage of conservatives, since Cain supporters and Collins supporters can go all-out in the first round without fear of splitting the vote and electing the pro-abortion Isakson; whichever of Cain or Collins finishes second in the first round can consolidate the conservative vote in the lower-turnout run-off and send Isakson packing.
While Mac Collins is a fine conservative Congressman and would make a good Senator, Herman Cain would make a *great* Senator. Cain will take the lead in the Senate on issues such as substituting the income tax with a sales tax and implementing Social Security reform so that younger workers have the choice of having it work more like an IRA. And Cain will be a vigorous and eloquent defender of the right to life, the right to bear arms and the need for a strong defense. As an added bonus, Herman Cain's election as the only U.S. black Senator could serve as a catalyst for a wide-scale political realignment, since his stirring words and exemplary story will help convince many blacks that the Republican Party stands for what they believe and that the Democrat Party is guilty of keeping them down for so long. I'm not saying that blacks will vote en masse for the GOP, but if we can increase our percentage of the black vote from 10% to 30%, it will pretty much put the Democrat Party out of business in the South and in many places outside the South. Even several black-majority and black-influence congressional districts in the South would be winnable for a black conservative Republican if he can only get 30% of the black vote! So my advice to those conservatives who are already on board with Collins is to keep on chugging, since we need both Cain and Collins supporters to defeat Isakson. But I would urge those conservatives who are still undecided to join the Cain Crusaders, since this is perhaps our best chance to forge a permanent conservative majority in Congress.
GO, CAIN, GO!
