Straw Poll in Georgia. Cain's home state.
http://www.christianpost.com/news/herman-cain-wins-straw-poll-in-home-state-54652/

Cain, former chairman and CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, got just three votes more than runner-up Rep. Ron Paul from Texas, who got 229, or 25.7 percent, votes.

“We’re absolutely thrilled,” Macon.com reported Bertha Craig-Allen, a state district director for the Cain campaign, as saying. “He wanted to be here, but we are very, very excited to tell him the news when he gets back… Ron Paul has been a thorn in many a campaign’s side in the past. I’m not going to let that ruffle my feathers.”

Texas Gov. Rick Perry, the national frontrunner, came in third with 179, or 20 percent, votes. Newt Gingrich, who represented Georgia in Congress for nearly two decades and was the only candidate to address the crowd, finished fourth with 164, or 18 percent, votes. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney finished fifth with only 51, or six percent, votes.

Very nice to see that Paul dam near beat Cain in his home state!

The whole 'right on your tail' position bodes well for us...... they didn't see us coming, now they can't stop looking over their shoulder. :)
