It is just a straw poll but interesting results. Herman Cain cleaned house on the front runners, and Representative Bachmann finished dead last.
Herman Cain wins the Florida straw poll

I noticed Kratz has decided to moved back with his log cabin buddies instead of giving us his insight in the psyche of the political animal and modern society. I'm sure he has some explanation for this anomaly. I wonder what handle he'll come back under this time.

Yeah but Cain doesn't count cuz he's an Uncle Tom according to the left.
I've been saying this all along he is my Republican choice. He's articulate, intelligent, has real world experience and makes common sense. His weakness is foreign policy - he needs a strong VP running mate in this regard. But I'd still be happy with a Romney/Cain or Romney/Santorum ticket. As long as Perry or Bachmann don't get the nomination I am happy.
I'd be shocked if Cain got the nomination.From what i've read about him he does not seem like a really shitty choice like some of the others, but the fact he's showing so well does say something to how shitty this Republican field is right now.It's still wide open as far as i'm concerned.If it ever did come to pass that he was the nomination I suspect you would see a civil war within the party
That's right. That's all it is. This will ultimately matter as much Bachmann's straw victory in Iowa. Zilch.
Google is your friend there's many topics on such. Garafolo called him that on Olbermann's show....despicable. I wouldn't doubt as Cain gains more popularity other left wing extremists like Bill Maher will make the accusation.
Frankly I don't think so any more than Bachmann, or Perry and perhaps a lot less depending upon whom he chose as his running mate.
Let me ask a question. Do you honestly believe Perry, or Bachmann, or Cain, will ever get close to being nominated? If any one of them are, the Republicans will lose. Badly.
Well, if I were a Republican strategist, I think they have very few choices. Christie continues to say no in a way that I believe him. Time is running out very quickly. This isn't like the old days where a candidate could jump in near the end and put up a credible campaign, as Humphrey did in '68. There is far too much money required now, and if a candidate starts too late or hasn't made serious inroads, they will lose. Perry is going nowhere and generally making a fool of himself, Bachmann is defintely going nowhere, and Cain will never really win over core Republicans. They won't vote for a black man. So, unless someone else steps up real soon, you boys are left with Romney.
Please tell me what does the President have going for him that Herman Cain doesn't?
Let's see the President was let in on preference at both Columbia and HLS. Herman Cain is a graduate of Moorhouse College the "Ivy" of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and one of the best Liberal Arts Colleges in the U.S., and he sure as the Devil wasn't let in on preference. They both have postgraduate degrees. Herman Cain had a very successful business career, the President was a "Community Organizer" and an Adjunct Professor.
