The people who are supporting Herman Cain are the type of people that show up and vote in the primary.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Herman Cain continues to show himself to be a leader.
Mr. Cain would structurally change the voting demographic. There would be more black economic conservatives, and the Democrats would lose their stranglehold on the black vote.
In a crazy world where he would get nominated, I'd like to see Obama run against Herman Cain. That would be fantastic. If Herman Cain became president, there'd be a certain sort of morbid curiosity for me.
I shudder to think what Republican presidential contenders will say in a 2016 primary to win over voters who think Eric Cantor isn't conservative enough.

Candidates are making lasting impressions on voters, not just primary voters, in how they campaign.
When I first ran for governor, the political class and party leaders opposed me with great vigor, and some even said if I won the primary they would never vote for me. But the voters had other ideas, and they are the only ones who count.
John Kasich is the most popular elected official in Ohio because he got things done.
I had supported Governor George W. Bush over Senator John McCain in the 2000 Rhode Island presidential primary.
A small number of people and groups control the Democratic primary.
