Why Does Herman Cain Keep Quoting Donna Summer’s Pokémon Song?
http://gawker.com/5830573/why-does-herman-cain-keep-quoting-donna-summers-pokemon-song

Republican presidential candidate and pizza magnate Herman Cain cited the inspiring words of a "poet" during his closing statement to Thursday night's presidential debate:

"A poet once said, 'life can be a challenge, life can seem impossible, but it's never easy when there's so much on the line.'"

As the keen Pokémon fans at New York Magazine's Daily Intel point out...it's Donna Summer...from the hit movie Pokémon: The Movie 2000.

1. Oh geez! Are we sure he isn't punking? ha ha ha!
That's hilarious and scary - because a lot of people will remain clueless that he's plagarizing the Pokeman song, or has stolen his tax plan from the Sims. :rofl:

3. And he got his 9-9-9 plan from Sim City
Just heard it from Rachel Maddow's show. Does he have ANY original ideas?
