From the opening horse sequence, I was hoping for a spoof of “Blazing Saddles,” but this ad for GOP Presidential Candidate Herman Cain is just bizarre. We get a Western sequence, then the Nick Searcy, the main actor, breaks character and talks to the camera to make an endorsement of Cain.
It’s a long way to go to get to the main point of the ad, which is that Cain is “real” and doesn’t use empty phrases the way an actor does.
