Herman benefits from a couple of things...
1) People like him because he isn’t a “establishment” politician.
2) He speaks with common sense. (Most people don’t speak in polished “policteze” and accept generalities.)
3) He has a proven success record in the real world of business.
4) His followers don’t trust either the Main stream press or the establishment GOP (his main attackers)
5) Even with his faults, he would 1000 times better then Obama or Romney or Newt.
Exactly, which is why Herman is 100% correct about why the Dems are attacking him. Why don't the Dems attack Romney or Newt? Just wait, if either one of them gets the nomination, they'll get theirs. . .the difference is the Dems are salivating to unload on a Newt or a Romney. . .
In case anyone has been watching. . .the Dem plan is to divided the country, basically into two groups: Group one: RICH - WHITE - WORKING - PRIVATE SECTOR - NON-UNION, Group Two: POOR - MINORITIES - UNEMPLOYED - PUBLIC SECTOR - UNION. Newt as leader of Group one fits perfectly as the template foil. Newt is white, arrogant, etc. ..Romney? he's so tragically white its pathetic. . another perfect fit for the template. CAIN? HE BLOWS THE STRATEGY OUT THE WINDOW. . and that's why , as Herman indicated, the Dems fear him. . .and that is another reason why I'm sticking with the Cain Train (In addition to Scubies 5 points).
