Go to Rick Barber's website and watch in awe this completely insane and sorta scary but admittedly pretty brilliant ad.
Barbar is a GOP candidate for the House of Representatives from Alabama's second congressional district. He finished second in the recent primary and forced a July 13 run-off. With advertising like this, he could win.
Then he'd face a Democratic incumbent named Bobbie Bright. Bright has voted against anything Obama has come within miles of, needless to say, but a Democrat in Alabama is not exactly safe, so it seems possible that this man actually could end up in Congress.
Someone needs to tell him that life in Congress isn't like life in the television commercials and there aren't going to be stentorian men in funny hats willing to follow him into battle. Just a lot of tedious hearings and getting familiar with things like agriculture policy, that is if he bothers, and then figuring out that it's likely to take him at least 10 years to have the remotest impact on anything, by which time he'll be either bored to tears or (from the looks of this ad) homicidal.
Anyway it's massively entertaining.
