Well push me down and call me Bobby, the Herman Cain aka The Godfather is leading in a national poll of voters, beating out Mittens, The Ken Doll and The Wicked Witch of the West. What is the world coming to?
Public Policy Polling, a Democratic pollster based in Raleigh, North Carolina, released a poll today of 484 likely Republican primary voters that showed businessman Herman Cain has taken a commanding lead over the competition in the field of 2012 presidential candidates.
Cain received the support of 30 percent of Republican voters. His nearest competition is former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney with 22 percent. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich comes in third with 15 percent and Texas Gov. Rick Perry is in fourth with 14 percent. The rest of the field of candidates polls in the low single digits.
Maybe republicans are atoning for all the ways they threw former republican candidates under the bus (poor Michael Steele) or they figure another black guy is the only one who can beat the current black guy. I have no idea, but Election 2012 is sure shaping up to be one hell of a good train wreck to watch.
