    I was kind of expecting to see a Rick Astley vid pop up following the Cain smirk.

    I think they've learned from their mistake... this one is better.

    That wasn't an ad, though, that was just a bad photo op.

    Romney is such a fraud, that's the only reason Cain has all this attention. The GOP field is weak.

    That second ad is clearly just fan-made (not part of his campaign). But damn that's creepy too.

    It's made by surrealist comedian Tim Heidecker.

    It may be so stupid, it's genius. Everyone is talking about it.

    Everybody talked about the I Like Turtles kid, too. Doesn't mean I want him to be President, though.

    On second thought, I'll take this kid over Obama.

    Or maybe he's so confident in his blackness that he doesn't give a crap about who's talking in his commercial.

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that it's probably just the former.

    Seems there is a strong chance Cain is really only in this to sell books and maybe get a TV gig on Fox News... why it seems like he's winging so much of this. His success in the polls is more of a reflection of the "someone other than Romney" mentality that Perry benefitted from before bombing that debate. He's probably as surprised as anyone that he's been leading at some points.

    I doubt that. Listen to his position on Abortion and you'll understand.

    He doesn't think things through and has never held public office.
