Businessman Herman Cain remains down in a matchup with President Obama after sex allegations rocked his campaign and paved the way for a new GOP candidate’s star to rise as the next non-Romney, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. Cain is again down ten points in a matchup against President Obama, essentially leveling out his support in their polling.
Despite the continued hammering Cain has taken in the media over sexual harassment allegations leveled against him in the 1990s, the new numbers mark virtually no change from a week ago when Obama led him 48% to 37%. That survey, however, marked a drop in support for the Georgia businessman who trailed Obama by just five points at the end of October and earlier that month had edged ahead of the president 43% to 41%.
