Cain 43%, Obama 41% (Rasmussen Reports)

Whether Herman Cain’s surge in the polls is temporary or has staying power, he’s enjoying a big enough bounce to take a very slight lead over President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 matchup. At the moment, the Georgia businessman is the only Republican with a lead of any kind over Obama, although former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney has held a similar advantage several times and is currently trailing the president by just two points.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely U.S. Voters shows Cain attracting 43% support, while Obama earns 41%. Given such a matchup, eight percent (8%) prefer some other candidate, and another eight percent (8%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Cain is tied with Romney for the lead in the race for the GOP presidential nomination.  Nobody else is even close at the moment.

Last week,  Cain trailed Obama by three. The week before,  he was behind by five. “Cain now has the chance to make the case for why he should be the challenger to Mitt Romney,” says Scott Rasmussen, president of Rasmussen Reports. “Many others have auditioned for the role and fallen flat, and it remains to be seen whether Cain’s fate will be similar.” Rasmussen interviewed Cain for the Rasmussen Report on radio show.

The conservatives are just showing their racism by not supporting Obama.

A successful American with a damn good tan....not a half-ass tan like Obama.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Does anyone know Cain's actual ancestry?

I mean, we have a Kenyan-American raised in Indonesian madrasas running against Cain.  I just want to make sure I'm voting for the REAL black man here.

Cain looks a bit darker, but "Barry Barack Hussein Obama Sorento" sounds much more African than "Herman Cain".  Maybe if Herman Cain would change his hame to Mukimbu Ahmadinejad Matumbo I might could get behind him.

It's because of stupid stuff like this that obozo is failing in the polls:

"My plan says we’re going to put teachers back in the classrooms, construction workers back to work," President Obama said at a campaign event today. "Tax cuts for small businesses, tax cuts for hiring veterans, tax cuts if you give your workers a raise –- that’s my plan."
 
"The Republicans plan, Obama says, boils down to this: 'Dirtier air, dirtier water, less people with health insurance.'"


I have 2 Grandsons and does this ass clown really think that I want dirty air and water and a lower standard of living for them than i enjoyed growing up?

This guy is all out of ideas and is projecting more than the DUmmies at the DUmp.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Remember how the DeomonRats always accuse the conservatives of using fear politics?
