Watch the Parody Infomercial Ted Cruz Will Air in Iowa During SNL
Slate ^ | December 20, 2015 | Daniel Politi

Posted on 12/20/2015 2:09:53 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

Republican presidential hopeful Sen. Ted Cruz will be airing a parody Christmas-themed infomercial in key Iowa markets during the Saturday Night Live broadcast. "In the spirit of the upcoming holiday, we are excited to bring a Cruz family Christmas into the homes of SNL viewers in Iowa," the Cruz campaign told the Independent Journal. "Ted is a long-time fan of SNL, so the chance to film his own SNL-style commercial was an opportunity we couldn't pass up!"

The commercial shows the Texas senator reading some "Christmas classics" to his two daughters and wife. The tales includes the likes of "Rudolph the Underemployed Reindeer," "Frosty the Speaker of the House," ("Look! The speaker is melting before Congress"), "How Obamacare Stole Christmas" and "Auditing St. Nick" (I will audit him here or there, I will audit him anywhere). One of his daughters at one point takes a turn in reading from "The Grinch who Lost her Emails."

Great stuff outside the box, a classic.

If he wins the nomination he will eviscerate the Grinch.

Damn it. If he had shown this kind of PR savvy a few months ago, there would be no Trump phenomenon!

Cruz knows how to fight. He’s our best chance for the White House.

Did you notice Trump took out the bulk of Cruz’s competition?
