This strikes me as being a bit like a road race, or tour stage. We had an early breakaway with Bachmann and Pawlenty, then the pack came together. On some early hills a pretender named Trump tried to make a show, but got dropped straight away.

Romney is in the leader's jersey, but, he is in the peloton riding ahead of the chaos to avoid the crashes- yet not willing to send his team to the front this early.

Then we had an attack from Perry, but he was run down and is going backwards. Cain was in that chase group, drafting up until now and is staying at the front. The attacks are coming again and it is like a break away attempt that goes too soon and can't hold on.

It looks like he's gone too soon and may not have the support to take it home.

With all of the teams lining up and marking the favorites, might it be Noot who is looking for the right wheel and the open lane to jump out and take it all?

Pretty good analogy there.

Cain looks like he’s planned for a long solo breakaway.

Romney will let him go thinking he doesn’t have the race savvy , experience to make it.

Based on the thread title Cains plan is working to date.

Lots of tarmac ahead, and certainly someone will crash, so
lets see who’s got the legs/heart to tough out the long haul.

Whoever it is we need to dethrone the “ tricycle ( kids version) rider currently holding the maillot jaune....

P.S. Great analogy. Many political analysts , talking heads could learn a lot from your take.
