The Chuckster

Chuck Norris and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee appear in an advertisement that began running in Iowa today. In the clip, the man whom Bruce Lee killed in "Return of the Dragon" describes some of Huckabee's policy stances, and Huckabee retells some Chuck Norris jokes that have circulated the Internet in recent years. Can anyone tell me what voter demographic a Chuck Norris endorsement appeals to? More importantly, who would Bruce Lee endorse? Update: In a statement released by the campaign, Huckabee says:

This is a light-hearted ad which draws attention to important issues. We want to show that running for President is serious business but a person can have fun doing it. I appreciate Chuck Norris' endorsement and his participation in the ad, which was designed to spotlight some key issues and to draw interested voters to our website.
