Hopefully this will be the turn around he needs and Republicans will give us a candidate that we want rather than the one who has the best chance to beat the 0bama.

Maybe next election I can vote without holding my nose.

Well, that is still far into the future, but for now............HAPPY DANCE TIME!

I so agree!!! I have always liked Herman Cain. I am very excited about this news

Maybe if he gets more buzz from us chat folks, the media will have no choice but to pick up on him. Interesting how our left-leaning friends have not weighed in on him. Seems like he is being underestimated.

That is certainly a switch. Well wasn't Florida the state that had so many problems figuring out how to vote (the chad issue) that a presidential election was held up one year? Floridians aren't the sharpest kife in the stack, that is for sure.

I wonder if it would have made a difference if Ron Paul was there for his speech?

That's the strange thing, Paul got 10% while Bachmann got 11%.
Hats off to dixie, she nailed this one. I didn't see it comin.

I messed that up, Santorum got 11%.
