Herman Cain has given us a winner.
In case you missed it, Georgia businessman Herman Cain has dropped a new campaign ad, and it's terrible. In a good way.
I'm not sure which is more hilarious: the terrible production values, the fantastic background soundtrack, or Cain's knowing look at the end. Regardless, it's safe to say that this is a classic on par with Carly Fiorina's "Demon Sheep".
I should also say that this settles for good the question of whether or not Cain is a serious candidate for president. In short? No, he isn't.
