From “Saturday Night Live” comes this … what’s that? This unbelievably bizarre Herman Cain campaign ad is real? The Baltimore Sun calls it “unorthodox,” which is an understatement considering this is from the Republicans’ leading contender for the presidency.

It’s so weird and silly I can’t make myself believe it’s actually an ad from the Herman Cain campaign, even though I’m told it is. But … it just can’t be.

Below you can experience for yourself the smoky stare-down, Cain’s “hi there” smile and, of course, the music, which sounds like it was prepared for a Bulgarian jeans commercial. — PZS
