Not entirely sure, Think its the whole minority craze, we'll probably have to have a few more presidents consisting of every minority and women before it all settles down. Think thats what it comes down to, race and sex
I think he's the most charismatic of the Republican nominees. He really seemed like a guy who "you can go have a beer with" and he came up with catchy phrases like 999. Then people found out he had issues, the catchy 999 plan sucked, and he didn't know much of anything about foreign affairs.
Too much stupidity perpetuates stupid possibilities. Welcome to America, where douche bags like Rick Perry and Herman Cain are actually taken seriously.

he allowed himself to become a mirror of the generic republican. I think that combined with having zero decent candidates to compete against got his poll numbers so high. If you look at how many frontrunners have come and gone I think that having no half decent candidates is the only conclusion you can come to.
Low candidate standards, weakness to catchphrases and slogans and hype train. Unfortunate that people bothered wasting time discrediting Cain when he couldn't have beaten Obama anyway. There's enough dirt with Newt that hopefully it uncovers it's self for the general public since he's going to get a popularity boost because of this.
