And the Winner is -- Herman Cain!
Focus group on Hannity ^ | May 5, 2011 | Hannity's show on Fox News

After the Republican debate last night, Frank Luntz's focus group on Hannity's show was asked who won. Almost everyone said Herman Cain and a lot of them said they didn't know who he was until the debate.

I also thought he did the best, but was surprised that the response was so overwhelming with the focus group.

They said they liked his straight talk.

I did not know who is Herman Cain until I saw this on Free Republic. After taking a look at the Fox News replay, I agree that he is the winner.

Hermain Cain has the common sense and business acumen of Donald Trump, but without the baggage. To me Herman Cain is the front runner!

In a recent speech Herman Cain used the word SIN as an acronym to describe what liberals do in any discussion of the issues:

Shift the argument
Ignore the facts, and resort to
Name calling

I thought he was spot on with that analysis.

I haven’t seen any other article about how far out ahead of the others Cain scored in the focus group.

The media wants to keep pushing their old favorites and the public want new fresh faces who can do the job.

The Paulites and the Palinites will join hands and denounce this as a Saudi plot.

I was pleased with this too. 2012 hasn’t been the same since DeMint went myth on me.

This no surprise. I wish he had the political infrastructure to win the nomination and run for President.

Herman Cain had an awesome debate. He answered the questions and was right on the money. I already liked him from watching some of his videos and he further impressed me last night.

Herman Cain

born December 13, 1945 in GA (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)

Parents were
Luther Cain Jr., born March 16, 1925 in TN, died March 29, 1982 in Atlanta, GA
Lenora Davis, born July 27, 1925 in GA, died August 20, 2005 in Atlanta, GA

Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)

Herman Cain is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.

I love Sarah but Herman did well last night.

Pawlenty and Santorum were very good.

Both of the libertarians, Ron Paul and the ex-governor of NM had one or two good points, but both are too libertarian to be real contenders.

It was worth watching.

If Sarah decides to run, I'll back her, if not, I won't go and pout, I'll find the candidate that matches my values {as best they can} and go with that candidate.

Regardless of who it will be, I'll vote against obama, even if the pubbies run howdy dowdy, the puppet.

Saw a bit of the debate - had not seen Cain before (had heard about him). He was quite impressive. Ron Paul is still quite articulate. Other than that, several buffoons up there.

I had been listening to Cain as a stand in for Neal Boortz radio show from time to time. He is excellent. I would have no problem in supporting him. He is also a proponent of the fair tax btw.

My Hubby never heard of Mr Cain until about two weeks ago. He was very impressed with his vast business experience and his conservative views.

Go Herman Go!!!

I’ve backed Cain from the Get-Go. I really hope he gains traction.
