When GOP Parody Ads Attack

The Huffington Post

Until the 2012 presidential race moves past the infighting stage and the field narrows enough for would-be contenders to start picking on foes from across the aisle, we’re going to see the likes of this little parodic number by Jon Huntsman’s daughters, Liddy, Abby and Mary Anne, skewering fellow Republican Herman Cain’s recent, ineffable campaign ad. —KA

Truly sick! What sane person would want to be president of the US? Huntsman’s
daughters want their dad to be president? That is just plain horrific. Shouldn’t they
by now be moving on with their lives instead of wanting to be daddy girls and
maybe dreaming of staying in the White House and assisting in the Easter Egg hunt
activity?
