A new Gallup poll finds Mitt Romney barely leading Herman Cain for the GOP presidential nomination, 20% to 18%, with Rick Perry at 15%, Ron Paul at 8%, Newt Gingrich at 7% and Michele Bachmann at 5%. The Republicans usually don’t have an actually competitive primary race. Usually, at this point in the election calendar, the national polls show the eventual nominee leading the race by 20 or more points. So Romney is weak, and a new ad by the Perry camp will really hurt….

What a day… Huge thank you’s to everyone! Too many to list right now.

My first reactions… Everything you’ve heard about the gentle-spiritedness of this is true. I witnessed a bunch of Americans being the civic minded Americans that we are meant to be. Protesters, cops, journalists, all American patriots doing their thing.

Everything you heard about this being anti-capitalist is a bunch of hooey. Everyone I saw seemed to be expressing a desire to return to the kind prosperity that was built on the notion that we are all in this together. A prosperity that does not simply materially enrich a few – but on a much deeper level enriches us all.

More tomorrow.

Thanks again.
