Umm, I don't know either, it's probably name recognition for the most part. A GOP candidate doesn't need Iowa to win the nomination, but it is a good early barometer of national support. This:

. . .Only one-third of the caucus-goers (32%) are certain of their vote and don’t expect to change their mind. Among these voters, 30% prefer Cain, 22% Romney, and 17% Paul.

is telling. It's a wide open game.

Just watched the Pierce Morgan interview with Cain.

Nothing new, except the story about how Cain had to wait to get his hair cut at the barber, and even though it was ALL black barbers, he was still not allowed to get a haircut there.

He was given the choice go across to the other side of the tracks for a haircut at the “black” barber. What he ended up doing was go to SEARS and buy himself a pair of hair clippers, and, since that day, he’s always cut his OWN HAIR!! STILL does!!

It had me in TEARS. The man has tremendous character — as do all of the black Americans who had to endure such crap in our country during that time. But Herman didn’t get mad, or hold a grudge — he just indepdently did what he HAD to do to get his hair cut.

THIS is what we SO desperately need — a president who sets the example. You run into adversity? Don’t whine, don’t blame, don’t give up ...just push through, do what you have to do, and OVERCOME.

Contrast that w/ the whiny punk in the WH now ...there is just NO comparison. NONE!!!
