Cain’s departure would ultimately help Romney most, according to an ABC News/ Washington Post poll conducted earlier this month.
Among Cain supporters, 28 percent said Romney was their second choice. Gingrich followed with 21 percent, Bachmann with 15 percent, Perry with 12 percent, and Paul with 9 percent.

So.. one article says it would help Gingrich the most, another says it would help Romney the most..

Eeny meeny miny mo..?

Michael Medved said it would not help Gingrich, because Cain's woes only remind people of the trouble with Gingrich, and that Mitt is a tried and true "family man." I kinda agree. I mean, how can any SANE person leave Cain because of infidelity and go to Gingrich? Don't make no sense.

People will go where Fox news tells them to go.

Yeah, probably. But I believe, if left to their own accord, they would mostly gravitate to Newt. I mean, if you saw the Gingrich/Cain "debate" (or whatever it was called), it was basically a love fest.

In any event, I'm hoping Cain hangs in there at least through Iowa, as we will undoubtedly not be getting the lion's share of his supporters should he withdraw.

Ron has been married longer than Mitt. And had 40 family members over to his house for Thanksgiving. Sounds pretty 'family man' to me.

EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED, IF GINGRICH FALLS THAT WILL REDISTRIBUTE THE VOTE AS WELL. IF EVERYONE WOULD FALL TO 5 TO 15% EACH THAT WOULD GIVE RON PAUL THE EDGE:
10% x 7 candidates
Ron Paul 20-30% = Win?
