Herman Cain in the spotlight

Tuesday, October 11, 2011
GOP candidate Herman Cain
Herman Cain (pictured), has been an afterthought, on the receiving end of few questions from the moderators and virtually ignored by his better-known and better-financed rivals.
That ends tonight, when Cain, along with seven other men and women running for president, take the stage in Hanover, N.H., for a debate sponsored by the Washington Post and Bloomberg News.
Polling makes clear how much Cain’s position in the race has improved since the candidates last gathered in Orlando late last month.
