Fox News Poll: GOP Primary Voters Propel Cain to Top of Pack

By Dana Blanton

Published October 26, 2011 | FoxNews.com

Herman Cain takes the lead in the Republican presidential nomination
contest as GOP voters continue to deny Mitt Romney clear front-runner
status.

A Fox News poll released Wednesday shows support for Cain has quadrupled
among GOP primary voters since late August. At that time, he stood at 6
percent. After three September debates, he jumped to 17 percent. And now
Cain leads the pack at 24 percent.

While it’s the first time Romney has trailed Cain, it’s the second time
he’s been ousted from the lead since July. Romney receives 20 percent --
a new low for him but still within the margin of error of 5.5 percent
among Republican primary voters. Romney was at 23 percent last month and
a high of 26 percent in early August.

Newt Gingrich now comes in third with 12 percent -- edging out Rick
Perry. The former speaker -- like Cain -- has seen his support quadruple
since late August.

Perry's support has dropped to 10 percent, down from 19 percent in
September. After his mid-August announcement, Perry captured 29 percent
of the vote and took the front-runner role from Romney.

At 9 percent, Ron Paul stays in the top five.

Cain is particularly popular among Republican primary voters who
identify as being a part of the Tea Party: he captures 32 percent to
Romney’s 8 percent among this group. Cain also has a wide 15
percentage-point advantage over both Romney and Gingrich among white
evangelicals.

Herman Cain as the GOP nominee...

Hehehehehehehehe.

I love it.

Unlike Sarah Palin, who tried to fake her way through the fact that she
didn't know nuttin', Ol' Herman comes right out and says it. And when he
talks about what he thinks he knows, he sounds even dumber.

Bring it on!
