Romney vs. Gingrich

With Herman Cain out of the race many believe and polls currently show that in the long run the race might be Newt Gingrich vs. Mitt Romney. This video above shows the flip flopping but more importantly give the sense of Newt and Mitt who will probably be head to head in the near future trying to win over citizens votes.

Newt Gingrich leads in the National GOP Poll with for the Republican Presidential Nomination with 26.6 % of the votes. Mitt Romney was slightly below with 20.4 percent of the votes but now holding at 16 with Ron Paul above him. Mitt Romney has primarily held the top spot for a while and with consistency and when he decreases only does into the 2nd. This is Newt Gingrich’s first time being a front runner during this campaign and signs have shown that no one else but Romney have been able to stay on top for long.

With Herman Cain’s accusations of adultery and sexual assault this is a time for these two candidates to shine over his voters and take them under their wing. Although Herman Cain is the only one that ahs left the race people say that is narrowing down to a two man race being Romney and Gingrich. Ron Paul has also risen lately over taking Romney’s 2nd places and knocking him down to 3rd. Yet people still say that this is a Romney and Gingrich race.

People say Gingrich needs to take action in his campaign if he wants to remain on top. He recently opened up his first campaign office in Iowa, which is late compared to all other candidate especially past front-runners. Iowa governor also questions if he “delivers” as a candidate and speaker. Yet Gingrich’s sudden rise from the depths of the bottom is what is especially striking and hopeful for him.

Ron Paul was failed to be mentioned in the media but at 2nd place he is rising and his hard work is starting to pay off. It would be very interesting to see Ron Paul, as the front-runner who most say is the one deserving of the spot. Although most news channels and reporters discuss Gingrich and Romney the ones who will be head to head Romney should be a part of that analogy.

On CNN’s State of The Union Ron Paul gave his take of the campaign so far.
“Of course it is very encouraging because we’re getting pretty close to it being within the margin of error,” Paul said. “So, I think we continue to do what we’re doing. We’ve had the flavors of the month up and down so far in this campaign. I’d like to think of myself as the flavor of the decade.”
In a month Iowa will cast their votes and pick their bid for the presidential nomination. Time is approaching and these three candidates have become the top three picks of the nation presidential candidates. One of these 3 GOP nominees could possibly be the next President of the United States of America.

No Cain Train

Herman Cain has suspended his Presidential Campaign after what he says was a distraction to the runners campaign. He was among the front-runners at some point but that declined quickly after allegation of infidelity. He has ended his bid for Presidency in a way that states that if anything we as citizens will be seeing more of him.

Recently Herman Cain was accused of sexual misconduct when he was the CEO of Godfather’s Pizza. May sexual accusations arose towards him. He called them “false accusations” that had no basis and were simply not true in any way. Even though many signs put in a peculiar position he still made it as a front-runner. This shows that Herman Cain had a lot of supporters despite all his bad press.

As a conservative person in the Republican race his stance on abortion was something that would’ve hurt him in the long run. He at one point said that he would leave that to the states, which was not taken lightly by Republican citizens and advocates. He then clarified himself and said that as President he would not help fund plant parenthood and would veto any bill to help the organization.

In a recent Rasmussen Poll 51% of voters agreed that it was right for him to leave the race. A poll was also taken as to why he left to which 45% agreed on his lack of foreign policy knowledge while 43% deemed it to be reference to his sexual allegations. Although Herman Cain’s campaign was suffering and he was facing many distractions, he still held a place in 3rd place, which isn’t the worst decline.

Many reports show that Herman Cain is technically still in the race has he did not “terminate” his campaign. He suspended his campaign, which has no official meaning to the Federal Elections Committee. In essence this could be a tactic to see if he still has the supporters to make it all the way. This allows for a lot of flexibility as he can still accept money and if his campaign truly demises he could give it to a candidate of his choice. FEC shows that he has 60 days to cancel all activity so he has time to think of his options.

Many people have kind words to say about Herman Cain and actually respected his open mind and ability to speak freely about any matter. Michelle Bachman even stated that he brought a good vibe to the campaign and it would be sad to see him go. Despite his harsh press, Herman Cain was favored by man advocates and entertaining to many spectators. One thing for sure is that the race will not be the same without him. With Herman Cain out it seems as though this will be a battle between Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney as front-runners. The question that lies is who will have the privilege and honor to win over Herman Cain’s voters. In time we will see which candidate has taken the steps to win over their votes and becomes one step closer in being in the next Presidential Race against Barack Obama.
