From Sunshine State News, about the conservative Republican businessman and former presidential candidate: "Cain backed fellow restaurant executive Craig Miller who was running for the Republican nomination to challenge Democrat incumbent U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson back in January. Less than three weeks after Cain endorsed him, Miller announced that he was pulling out of the Senate primary to run for a new congressional district created after redistricting. Cain has remained behind Miller who faces a competitive fight for the Republican nomination. Cain is now taking to the airwaves for Miller in a television ad launched in early May."
The article continues: "This is not the only endorsement Cain has made in the Sunshine State in recent weeks. With Miller opting to run for Congress instead of the Senate, Cain jumped in at the end of April to back former U.S. Sen. George LeMieux to take on Nelson. While Cain may have left the Republican race dogged by questions of character, the LeMieux camp clearly thinks that the endorsement helps their candidate. Twice last week, the LeMieux team noted in emails to supporters that Cain was behind the former senator."
More: "Cain also announced earlier in the month that conservative activist Joe Kaufman, who is running in the crowded Republican field looking to defeat U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, best known for chairing the Democratic National Committee (DNC), backed his 9-9-9 tax plan."
