Titled "Big John" (overcompensating much?), this ad was created by Senator John Cornyn's staff and aired at last week's State Republican Convention in Houston.
Maybe Cornyn has a sense how ridiculous this ad looks as he was quoted by the Austin American-Stateman saying...
"My staff convinced me it was a good idea," Cornyn said. "Maybe I need a new staff."
Maybe we just need a new Senator. Support Rick Noriega.
Big John Cornyn had to speak at a convention,
Oh my, what to say, with all that attention!
He queried his staff, they dwelled on the matter,
'Til finally they settled on iambic quadrameter!
"A cowboy to narrate! Some bales of hay!"
Then Cornyn responded, "but isn't that gay?"
"Nay" said his staffers, "It's rugged, and tough!
It's hard-working and white; you'll look crazy buff!"
So Cornyn agreed and they made this video,
It's shockingly gay; they thought it was witty yo!
Dear god, it's hilarious, to a cosmic degree,
'Cause this is what happens when egos run free.
P.S. Rick Noriega just passed 8000 online donors! Pile on.
