Cain says he's not running but the base could try to convince him to do so!

  I'd be very happy to see Saxby Chambliss replaced by a conservative. I'd like for that conservative to be Cain because of his views on replacing the IRS. In any case, it's good to know that the support for a real conservative is out there.

Hope Cain runs.

I’ve already alerted Chambliss that I am changing my affiliation to Independent because the republicans are more concerned with how they look to the media than they do to the American people.

Out to pasture with ya, Chambliss.

Cain would get my vote in a heartbeat… along with space on my rear bumper.

Not only is Chambliss a Tax and Spend Liberal...he is also Amnesty Liberal as well....he was a big supporter of McCain-Kennedy Illegal Alien Amnesty in 2007.

One less Amnesty Liberal is fine with me. Run, Cain, Run

I hate to say it, but we need him badly for the sake of his race. A black Republican Senator would be a significant electoral asset across the country.

I'd love to see Cain in the Senate. What speeches he could give! Plus, one of my pet peeves about the GOP is these overnight candidates who go for the gold without paying their electoral dues. Felt the same way about Keyes--should have found a safe seat in the Congress to establish his creds before trying to grab the gold ring out of nowhere. He was a brilliant guy but wasted his chance to make a real contribution.

Herman Cain is a wonderful candidate and true conservative. However, I hope Mr.
Cain plays this one close to the vest. Keeps in the spotlight with his radio program
to replace Bortz, then at the last moment jump in and go after Chambliss. Don’t
give the media a chance to make him a punching bag again. We could really use
his talents in the Senate.

Let it be so. Chambliss is a RINO.

Cain in Congress? Like the MSM will go along with that? Fat Chance. Just the hint of him running and the character assassination will continue, and a couple of additional bimbos will come forward with Gloria Allred as attorney. Dream on, Conservative Blacks, they’re just Uncle Tom’s on any ticket other than the Democrats. BTW, remember, Cain caved in too, rather than fight the allegations.

Yeah, but now its a state race where the national media doesn’t have as big an impact. Also, Cain will be on his own turf. When he came to my state he demonstrated lack of knowledge that I expected from a national candidate. I’ll bet he knows Georgia like the back of his hand.

Cain is slated to take over Boortz’s radio show next January. They mentioned a possible clause in contract that he wouldn’t run for anything in the near future.

How things could change if we could only get Cain, West and Palin in the Senate.
