Just the opposite would happen.
City of Atlanta with Hartsfield-Jackson airport, the largest in the world, is a must stop for talks by all candidates in Georgia be they whatever party.
You know nothing of Georgia. Herman Cain could have won the Senate seat easily and he is WHAT???
Herman Cain placed third in polls in Georgia, behind Mitt Romney and Newt "Food Stamp President" Gingrich.
And I know more about Georgia than you think.
I was being facetious, of course, but such a speech would lock up the cracker vote, for sure. And there are a lot of crackers in the Deep South.
Herman Cain was leading in the national polls before he was lynched by the double standard media that gave Clinton a free pass for harassing women and pulling his Johnson out and showing it to state employees.
You would not know a cracker if one stood in front of you.
A cracker is a slave driver you fool. Slavery ended 150 years ago.
[MENTION=18558]Gadawg73[/MENTION], you are partially right,
but mostly wrong, and I can mathematically prove it:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao6IyAPQ8DmmdFhiaXN5eGRYa0xrQkgtVGhFVnJEaFE&usp=sharing
Herman Cain led in exactly 8 national GOP nomination polls, 5 of them in October, 2011, 3 in November 2011. That's it. That makes for 8 out of 158 GOP nomination polls through the end of the year 2011.
You can find them in the EXCEL table that I just linked to. I prepared that table all through 2009, 2010 and 2011.
Cain led in 5 of 15 GOP nomination polls (national) in October, 2011, or 33.3% of those monthly polls.
He led in only 3 of 20 GOP nomination polls in November, 2011, or just 15% of those monthly polls.
Cain first appeared in GOP nomination (national) polling with a PPP (D) poll, taken from 5/23 to 5/25/2011 (he scored 12%).
Herman Cain's monthly averages:
May 2011: 11%
June 2011: 8.55%
July 2011: 6.56%
August 2011: 4.73%
September 2011: 6.36% (but jumped to his highest value to date in the last poll of the month, a FOX poll, with 17%, placing 2nd next to Romney)
October 2011: 22.20% (just under Romney's 23.13%)
In October 2011, in any two week span except for 10/14-10/29, Romney was still ever so slightly ahead. From 10/14 to 10/29, the average was Cain +2, which is well within the MoE.
So in polling averages, by any reasonable time frame, Cain was never really leading in national GOP polling, ever. That is what shoots your argument to the ground. Cain was a flash in the pan, just like Bachmann, just like Huckabee, just like Gingrich,
less like Santorum, who actually did very well in many primaries.
November 2011: 20.17%
December 2011: 0.47%
The last poll to include Cain's name in the matchups was Farleigh-Dickinson, which was conducted from 11/29 to 12/05/2011, and in that poll, Cain sunk to 8%.
Cain's big month was October, 2011, but even the monthly average had Mitt Romney ahead by a nose (+0.93%), Romney increased that average over Cain in November 2011.
You can also literally see that where Cain began to fall, Gingrich began to rise.
The sex scandal was of Cain's own making. Live with it. And don't blame Clinton for something that Cain himself did. That's just plain old childish.
And yes, I read through and studied every single one of those polls at that time.
You are welcome.
