Was that the smoking man from 24? I still don’t get it. I like to see a straight forward assault on the Marxist in the White Hut, not a Fellini Film Short.
Well, as usual when a republican does it it’s the end of the earth. The commie press totally ignores it when the muslim commie-in-chief does it. They think it’s cute.

Herman Cain is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama ISN'T!
Click on the cane.
I like Cain a lot and he will have my vote if he’s the GOP nominee. I’ve been to over 30 Tea Party rallies. That said, the smoking bit is the wrong angle if you ask me. For every libertarian type that applauds this, there is a social conservative that doesn’t agree.
At the end of the day smoking is a liberal trait, not a conservative trait.
It was still a great ad.
One of the dumbest, creepiest ads I’ve ever seen. That smile at the end is horrible, especially the way they fill the frame with Cain’s face.
Pure Cain sugar!
The ad will NOT hurt Herman Cain. It will help him a little. Smokers will love it because they’ve been “oppressed” and demonized for years. The, personal liberty people who may not smoke, but, hate Government intrusion into people’s personal lives, will like it and everyone else will forget about it in a few weeks. No harm done.
Fails miserably.
I hadn’t seen the ad, but it can be found here, at the bottom of the column:
Frankly, I don’t see anything wrong with it. Big deal.
I though the ad was clever and the message is clear -
“We will make our own choices - Get Big Brother off our backs”.
Hogwash.
The results of the poll have nothing to do with liking or not liking the ad.
The results simply show that the Tea Party conservative folks like Cain;
and the establishment rino republicans don’t.
Priceless
I’ve only seen it once. I took it as a hit against political correctness, but also a play on the Smoking Man from citizen Kane.
14 Trillion in fiscal debt...100 Trillion in unfunded liabilities...going in the hole 4 Billion a day.....a lawless occuppier in the WH...and we are bent out of shape over an ad with smoking in it??? We suck.
Just the other day I saw somebody eating a candy bar for no apparent reason.
He did this ad back in August. I like this guy! He has a great sense of humor and a sense of the idiocy of politics! Herman Cain is like the little boy pointing out that the Emperor is naked. He is NOT just playing along.

AGAIN, not that anyone will read this, or care but...
This was not MEANT TO BE AN AD.
This was a video message by Block, sent directly to Cain supporters by email. The link was to a private video, not a public one (it is obviously public now)
That link was sent to the press, and now you know the rest.
This was not intended to be a campaign ad. It has gotten a lot of publicity and it appears that some folks love the ad, some folks hate it, but for most, it is a non issue.
Cain’s smile at the end is how almost ALL Friends of Herman Cain videos end - nothing creepy or sinister about it.
If you go to Cain’s Youtube channel thehermancain, you will see what I am talking about.
I just viewed it for about the 40th time and each time I see it, more is revealed. I suggest that everybody watch it for a minimum of ten times and see if it does not open some doors in your brain that you did not previously know even existed.
