Was this the funniest moment of the 2012 Primary?

I still can't stop laughing at this...

[Simfan34]

I've never seen this, and it's wholly unprofessional, but it's funny.

[CathKhan]

That's... awesome!

[Diabolical Minds Think Alike]

The guy that laughs in the background...priceless.

[Lamrock]

Knew this would be a Herman Cain thread.

[IDS Legislator Alfred F. Jones]

Well, the Hermanator was the single funniest thing in the entire campaign (and recent political history), but in my book the best moment has to  be 'Oops'.

[Senator Snowstalker]

I see your Herman Cain and raise you my Rick Perry.

[Vosem]

In a normal campaign, this would be. But we had 'oops'.

[True Federalist]

In a normal campaign, this would be. But we had 'oops'.

If you've ever listed to the Political Junkie segment on NPR Wednesday afternoons, you know from the intro montage that "Oops." is the defining phrase of the 2012 primary season and probably the whole election.  Indeed, if it hadn't been for his Oops moments, Perry probably would be the GOP nominee right now.

[So the Heroes Fall]

Yeah there is no way anything is topping this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uvmKnFY4uk

I actually found this slightly more hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21z30aNO3cA

[Bacon King]

I still maintain that "You want a job, don't you?" should've been the Cain campaign's official motto.

There's three departments I would get rid of; education, commerce and what's the third one!

A-fricken men.

its stuff like that which leads you to be believe Cain was just some kind of elaborate performance art prank

Iowa Caucus 2012:

Rick Santorum   29,839   24.54%
Mitt Romney      29,805   24.51%
Ron Paul      26,036   21.41%
Newt Gingrich   16,163   13.29%
Rick Perry             12,557   10.33%
Michele Bachmann   6,046   4.97%
Jon Huntsman, Jr.          739    0.61%
Other (+)                   405           0.33%

All things considered, Michele Bachmann's campaign was full of hilarity. I'll never forget the first time I laid eyes on this:



Or the Piers Morgan interview where she refused to defend her anti-gay politics. "I'm not judgemental!" - Classic.

[Hashemite]

I still think nothing can top Rick Perry's oops.

Romney had a few good moments too, mostly in that SC debate when he was like a deer in the headlights.

[HagridOfTheDeep]

I quite enjoyed Edith and Carolyn.

This was my favorite. Both funny and amazing.

[Jerseyrules]

This, Mitt trying to compare himself to Ron Paul, and....what was the third one again? 

[Rep Pyrofox]

There were many priceless gaffes this primary.
I think "Oops" is what we'll remember a few years from now.
