Exxon John - The DNC Rips Off John Cornyn's Video
How many times can we rip off Jimmy Dean's "Big Bad John?"
The campaign of Texas Junior Senator John Cornyn hired a videography company to come up with an introductory video at the Republican Party of Texas' state convention this summer.

This campaign is shaping up to be the funniest one ever.
