The most recent CBS/New York Times poll confirms Cain's steady rise with 25 percent of Republican primary voters selecting him as their first choice for the nomination, a jump of 20 percentage points from five weeks ago.
"I am delighted with the new poll numbers. It is a clear indication that the message I have been sharing is resonating with the American people and they believe I can beat President Obama," said Cain after surging to the front.
The CBS/NYT poll is the first national poll to be released since last week's CNN debate.
Cain continued, "According to political 'experts' I am just a 'flavor of the week' and should have faded away by now. The American people are the real experts. They understand that it takes real solutions to move this country forward - not Washington promises."
